General Cable Features its FrogHide® Ultra Flex® Rubber Extension Cord Product Line

HIGHLAND HEIGHTS, Kentucky - With the help of contractors, tradesmen and homeowners, General Cable created the ultimate extension cord. It is more flexible, more durable and more identifiable than any other cord on the market with a name you won't forget. The one and only FrogHide.

FrogHide cords are constructed with an exclusive new rubber technology that makes them more flexible than any cord on the market, and FrogHide stays flexible, even at colder temperatures. FrogHide cord is molecularly bonded to the cap and connector, with a heavy-duty strain relief built in for lasting strength even in rough applications. The cord's improved electrical contacts give longer cord life. Plus, it is resistant to water, oil, ozone and chemicals. FrogHide also features a personal identification system to permanently mark each cord with the owner's name. The cord's highly visible, bold, bright green color makes it easy to spot on the job.
