Alpha Wire 5384C SL001, Xtra Guard Performance Cable Xtra Guard 1 4C 18 AWG Foil 300 V PVC

Part Number: 5384C SL001

Alpha Wire 5384C SL001 is a shielded multi-conductor control cable designed for reliable signal transmission in industrial and commercial environments. This cable features 4 conductors of 18 AWG (16/30) stranded tinned copper, individually insulated with PVC and cabled together with a precision lay for consistent electrical performance.

A foil shield with drain wire provides effective protection against EMI/RFI interference, making this cable suitable for sensitive control and communication circuits. The durable PVC jacket offers flexibility, oil resistance, and long-term reliability. Rated for 300 volts and elevated temperature operation, Alpha Wire 5384C meets multiple UL and CSA standards for dependable use in demanding applications.
