Electrical Shielded Wire for Sale

This 18 AWG 4 conductor shielded wire is built for users who need a practical cable for multi-core wiring, control signals, low-voltage equipment connections and custom electrical projects. The four conductor colors—black, red, yellow and white—help simplify circuit identification during installation and maintenance.

Compared with unshielded multi-core wire, the aluminum and tinned-copper double shielding structure helps reduce noise coupling from motors, VFDs, switching power supplies and nearby electrical devices. The tinned stranded copper conductors support good solderability, oxidation resistance and flexible handling during assembly.

Zhong Hua Jiang can supply this flexible electrical double shielded wire in custom lengths for machine builders, replacement wiring, maintenance work, OEM equipment assembly and wholesale projects. Standard order discussions can include cable length, roll packaging, application, quantity and destination market requirements.

Why Choose Our Wire

High Conductivity

Tinned stranded copper helps maintain conductivity while improving solderability and corrosion resistance. For CNC, automation and electronic equipment wiring, this conductor structure supports stable electrical performance, practical installation and long service life under normal operating conditions.

Advantage of Tinned Copper
Comparison Item	Tinned Copper	Pure Copper	CCA Copper-Clad Aluminum

Anti-Oxidation
Anti-Corrosion
Sturdy and Durable

Tinned copper offers excellent conductivity, prolongs service life and is more suitable for soldering.

Double Shielded Layer

The double shielded structure uses aluminum and tinned copper shielding to help achieve a stronger shielding effect than a basic unshielded cable. The shielding layer can help contain electromagnetic fields inside the cable and reduce external interference entering sensitive conductors.

In practical equipment wiring, the cable shield should be terminated according to the controller, VFD, motor or machine manufacturer's grounding and EMC instructions. The shield is used for interference control and should not be treated as a replacement for a required protective-earth conductor.

Application of Double Shielded Wire

Transformer	Electronic Instrument
Electrical Appliance	Motor

This 18 AWG 4 conductor double shielded wire is widely used in electronic instruments and devices, electrical appliances, transformers, motors and CNC systems. It is also suitable for control wiring, signal transmission and machine-internal connections where four insulated conductors and EMI shielding are needed.

Whether the project is a CNC machine build, replacement cable, automation panel, spindle system, speaker or audio signal path, or electrical equipment assembly, Zhong Hua Jiang can help match the shielded wire configuration to the application. If the standard product does not meet the requirements, contact the sales team to discuss custom length and supply options.

Customer Feedback

FAQ

What is 18 AWG 4 conductor double shielded wire used for?

It is used for four-core signal, control and low-voltage equipment wiring where EMI reduction is important. Typical applications include CNC machines, VFD spindle systems, stepper motors, automation panels, electronic instruments, electrical appliances, transformers, 3D printers and audio or speaker signal paths.

What does 18/4 shielded cable mean?

“18/4” means the cable contains four insulated 18 AWG conductors. In this product, the four conductors are twisted and protected by aluminum and tinned-copper shielding layers inside an overall PVC jacket.

What are the voltage and temperature ratings?

The listed rated voltage is 300V and the listed rated temperature is 80°C / 176°F. Final suitability depends on the circuit design, load, installation environment, applicable standards and machine-manufacturer requirements.

How does double shielding improve EMI resistance?

The aluminum foil and tinned-copper shielding layers form conductive barriers around the insulated conductors. When terminated correctly, these layers help reduce interference from motors, VFDs, power supplies and other noise sources, improving signal stability in sensitive equipment wiring.

Should the cable shield be grounded at one end or both ends?

Shield termination depends on the equipment, frequency range, enclosure bonding and EMC design. Follow the CNC controller, VFD, motor or equipment manufacturer's wiring instructions. The cable shield should not replace a required protective-earth conductor.

What is the difference between 18/3 and 18/4 shielded wire?

Both use 18 AWG conductors, but 18/3 has three insulated conductors and 18/4 has four. Choose 18/4 when the circuit requires an extra insulated conductor for additional control, signal, power or return wiring.

Is this cable suitable for drag-chain or continuous-motion use?

Standard flexible shielded cable may be suitable for fixed or occasional-flex installations. Continuous high-cycle motion generally requires a cable specifically designed for drag chains. Provide bend radius, travel distance, speed and cycle frequency so the proper cable type can be confirmed.

Can the length and packaging be customized?

Yes. The available length range is 5 m to 5,000 m. Buyers can provide the required roll length, total quantity, packing preference, labeling needs, application and destination market for quotation confirmation.

What information should I provide when requesting a quote?

Provide the cable gauge, conductor count, required length, estimated quantity, voltage, current, equipment model, installation movement, conductor-color requirement, termination method and delivery destination. These details help confirm the right cable and produce an accurate quotation.

How does Zhong Hua Jiang control product quality?

Product categories undergo quality-control checks before leaving the factory, and shipment inspection is performed before dispatch. Buyers should request the current specification sheet, certification documentation and inspection requirements needed for their application.
