    About Wire and Cable
    industrial info icon

    Compare wire vs. cable and choose the right option based on gauge, number of conductors, insulation, and current rating.

    Continuous-Flex Control Cable

    Unshielded

    Even after millions of flex cycles, this cable transmits reliable signals. Its finely stranded conductors are twisted together like a rope to resist wear from constant bending. Use it in moving equipment such as cable carriers.
    Unshielded—Choose unshielded wires when electromagnetic interference (EMI) isn't a concern. Equipment such as motors and pumps may have voltage fluctuations and current spikes that distort signals.

    Ribbon Cable

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Ribbon Cable.
    Often used in electronic prototyping or in the interior of computers, this flat cable is ultra flexible with small-gauge wires so it fits in tight spaces. Unlike standard flat control cable, the wires are bonded together without an overall insulation, so they can be easily separated for installation.
    UL 2556 VW-1— Cable is flame rated VW-1 to meet requirements for preventing the spread of flames based on a timed test with vertically suspended material.
