18 AWG Shielded

Control cable is most commonly used to organize and simplify control signal wiring in facilities and during assembly of machinery. These 18 AWG flexible multi-conductor control cables have both foil and braided shielding under a premium-grade PVC outer jacket that is resistant to sunlight, oil, and moisture, and are available with 3 to 25 conductors.

Flexible Multi Conductor Control Cable & Wire

Unshielded and Shielded Versions Available ... New!

Sizes from 18 AWG to 10 AWG

3 to 41 Conductors (including ground wire)

Multi-conductor flexible control cable from AutomationDirect is available in a variety of gauge sizes from 18 AWG to 10 AWG with 3 to 41 unshielded and shielded conductors.

Individual copper conductors are stranded for flexibility, with black PVC / Nylon insulation and marked with numbers for easy identification.
A convenient ground conductor wire is included in the conductor count of each cable and has insulation that is green with a yellow line.
Shielded versions include both an overall aluminum mylar foil tape with drain wire and tinned copper braid for maximum effectiveness against external electrical noise interference.
The cable's outer jacket is a flexible, premium grade Thermoplastic Elastomer (TPE) that is resistant to sunlight, oil, and moisture penetration, making these cables suitable for wet and dry locations as well as outdoors.
Tray Cable Exposed Run, UL Type TC-ER (600V rating), enables our cable to be installed between a cable tray and the utilization equipment or device without the need for metal conduit and/or armor resulting in installation and maintenance savings.
These cables are ideal for both stationary and flexible applications with limited mechanical stress and free movement without any tensile stress, loads or forced movements (NOT suitable for continuous flexing applications).
When combined with AutomationDirect ZIPport multi-wire connectors, our flexible multi-conductor cables provide an economical way to organize and simplify control wiring in facilities and during assembly of machinery.
