Made from tough yet flexible materials, the Belkin DuraTek Lightning to USB Cable delivers the ultimate in charging cable durability. This 4-foot cable is reinforced with DuPont Kevlar, a super-strong fiber that provides extreme strength without sacrificing flexibility. The double-braided nylon jacket helps shield the inner wires from damage. And thanks to its superior strain relief and insulation, this cable can endure heavy usage for long-lasting performance.

- Long, flexible strain relief absorbs stress
- Flexible insulation minimizes friction
DuPont Kevlar for Enhanced Durability
The DuraTek Lightning to USB Cable is built with DuPont Kevlar, an exceptionally
resilient fiber that is a key material in bullet-resistant vests, crash helmets,
surfboards, and extreme sports gear. Strong Kevlar strands are woven into the
cable, helping insulate the wires from damage. Kevlar also flexes easily, so it
adds structure to the cable without compromising its flexibility.
Durable, Flexible Insulation
Inside the cable, many wires co-exist to provide better functionality and
conductivity. Insulation protects the wires from damage as the cable bends and
flexes, but some can cause stiffness, affecting the overall suppleness of the
cable. The highly flexible insulation within DuraTek minimizes friction,
allowing the cable to bend easily and the wires within to move without
damage.
Superior Strain Relief for Lasting Performance
The DuraTek cable features an extra-long strain relief, where the cable joins
the connector head. Made from flexible TPE, this strain relief helps absorb
stress and reinforce the juncture between cable and connector to prevent
separation. Tested to withstand over 5000 cycles of 180-degree bending, the
strain relief helps protect against splitting and breakage.
Reversible Design for Easy Insertion
The Lightning connector is reversible, making it easy to plug into your device.
The low-profile cable is compact, so it fits even in small pockets
and bags.
Nylon Jacket Provides Extra Protection
Made from premium, hard-wearing nylon, the external jacket gives the DuraTek
cable an additional layer of protection. The nylon is double braided–a
technique commonly used in rope-making process–to create a highly resilient
cable that can withstand even the most demanding routines.
