Wire & Cable Extrusion

Custom Wire & Cable Extrusion

Custom extrusion is useful when standard cable will not fit the connector, overmold, routing space, or marking requirement. MTTJ develops the cable construction around downstream cutting, stripping, connectorization, overmolding, and electrical checks.

Cable construction options

The diagram separates conductor count, shielding, fillers, jacket shape, and outside diameter so extrusion requirements can be checked against later cutting, stripping, connectorization, and overmolding.

When standard cable does not fit the assembly

  • Custom cable assembly programs
  • Control and signal cable routing
  • UL wire and cable assembly support
  • Power and mixed-function cable requirements
  • Export-oriented OEM equipment programs

Conductors, shielding, jacket, color, marking

  • Specified cable construction
  • Conductor count and wire gauge check
  • Jacket material and color requirements
  • Shielding or drain wire requirements
  • Printing, marking, and shipment record package

Insulation, jacket, filler, shield materials

  • PVC, PE, PP, PU / TPU, TPE, PTFE, or silicone when specified for the construction
  • Specified insulation, jacket, shielding, covering, and filler materials

Cable construction

Design the cable around its downstream assembly

Conductor count, gauge, shielding, fillers, jacket, outside diameter, flexibility, color, and marking must also suit cutting, stripping, connectors, and overmolding.

Cable constructionConductor count, wire gauge, shielding, fillers, and jacket requirements set the construction.
Jacket materialFlexibility, abrasion, temperature, environment, and target market guide material choice.
MarkingPrinting, color stripe, label, and record needs should be listed with the inquiry.
Required recordsName material, inspection, or shipment records with the inquiry when they matter.
Assembly fitCable OD, flexibility, connector fit, and overmolding needs decide whether the cable fits the target assembly.

Conductors, OD, jacket, marking, assembly fit

  • Check conductor count, wire gauge, OD, jacket appearance, marking, and color against the construction target.
  • Verify continuity and conductor identification when the cable is supplied with assembly work.
  • Inspect extrusion fit with downstream cutting, stripping, connector assembly, and overmolding needs.
