18 AWG - Multi-Conductor - 600V - Stranded Conductor - Unshielded - VNTC Tray Cable
VNTC tray cable is a sturdy and adaptable cable suitable for transmitting power, control, relay or other types of signals in wet, dry or hazardous environments. It is most commonly used for power and control, telemetering, relay control, traffic control, switching, lighting and signal transmission. It is the preferred cable for factory or commercial applications.
VNTC tray cable can be installed in various types of conduit, ducts, raceways, and cable tray systems. It is flame retardant, sunlight resistant, burial rated, chemical and oil resistant and can be used in hazardous environments. It is rated to transmit 600v and has a temperature rating of 167° for wet applications and 194° in dry applications. It is also great for cold weather installations, being rated for both cold bend and cold impact resistance.
VNTC tray cable is a rugged cable used for wiring your mission-critical equipment, machinery, and systems.
