Stocked wire, stocked ends, a cut length, and a quantity. Build it on the online store, or send a drawing.
What custom cables does Polar Wire build?
1 to 3 conductor cable assemblies from 18 AWG to 1000 MCM: battery cables, jumper and booster cables, camlock jumpers, and telecom power cables. Strength is large-gauge, 4/0 through 1000 MCM. The live builder is on store.polarwire.com/custom-cables.
When should I build on the online store and when should I send a drawing?
Build on the online store when the cable is a stocked wire, stocked ends, a cut length, and a quantity. Send a drawing when any of that stops being true: a non-standard termination, a special wire construction, a documentation package, a first article, or a committed date. Custom colors or a print legend on the wire are private label, from 10,000 ft.
Is the length cut length or finished length?
Cut length. The store builder prices the length of cable that is cut. That is the number to send on a drawing as well.
Is there a minimum quantity on a custom cable?
No. Assemblies for retail customers carry no minimum, so a built cable can be one cable. Custom colors or a print legend on the wire are private label, from 10,000 ft.
How long will a custom cable take to arrive?
A cable built from wire already in stock typically ships in 5 to 10 days, and orders under 50 assemblies ship within 10 days on average. A full production run typically reaches shipment in 15 to 30 days from order. Those are averages across real orders rather than commitments.
Can SY housings join two heavy cables?
Yes. SY housings join two heavy cables. Specify both ends, the stud sizes, and the cut length on the online store builder or on a drawing.
