Data Cable may be damaged if it is bent too much.
Data Cable is usually composed of internal wires and external insulation protection layer. When Data Cable is bent too much, it will have many effects on its internal structure.
From the perspective of internal wires, excessive bending may cause the metal wires in the wires to break or be damaged. Wires are generally composed of multiple strands of fine metal wires to ensure good conductivity and flexibility. However, if they are repeatedly bent too much, especially frequently bent at the same location, these metal wires will gradually be subjected to excessive stress. Over time, the metal wires may suffer fatigue fracture, which will affect the conductivity of the Data Cable, resulting in unstable data transmission or charging function failure.
The external insulation protection layer will also be damaged by excessive bending. Common Data Cable insulation layer materials include PVC, TPE, etc. Excessive bending may cause cracks and damage to the insulation layer, which not only affects the appearance of the Data Cable, but also exposes the internal wires to the external environment, increasing safety risks such as short circuits and leakage. Moreover, once the insulation layer is damaged, impurities such as moisture and dust from the outside can easily enter the Data Cable, further damaging its performance.
In addition, the connector part of the Data Cable is also easily damaged when it is bent too much. The connection between the connector and the wire is usually a more fragile part. Excessive bending may cause the connector to loosen, fall off, or cause the internal solder joint to break. This will affect the stability of the connection between the Data Cable and the device, and may even prevent normal connection and use.
In order to prevent Data Cable from being damaged due to excessive bending, some measures can be taken. During use, try to avoid repeated excessive bending at the same part of the Data Cable, and you can adjust the posture and placement appropriately. At the same time, you can choose Data Cable with better flexibility, such as products with highly elastic insulation layers and reinforced connector designs. When storing Data Cable, you should also avoid excessive winding or squeezing. You can use special storage tools, such as cable winders, to keep the Data Cable in good condition.
In summary, Data Cable is very likely to be damaged if it is bent excessively, so you should pay attention to avoid excessive bending when using and storing Data Cable to extend its service life.
