Allwire has built a reputation as a trusted partner for industrial cable solutions, serving clients across some of the most demanding sectors in American infrastructure. What truly sets our company apart is not necessarily our standard product catalog, but our ability to engineer uniquely customized cable and conduit solutions tailored to the exact specifications of many niche industrial applications.
With so many different types of cables and installation needs, your typical off-the-shelf, one-size-fits-all conduit solutions often fall short. Allwire’s commitment to meeting customer requirements through customization ensures that utility companies, renewable energy developers, oil and gas operators, and irrigation specialists alike all receive cables built precisely for their unique operational challenges – not to mention all of the other niche industrial cable applications Allwire has served since 1967.
The Foundation of Expert Customization: Six Decades of Manufacturing Excellence
Allwire’s approach to custom cable manufacturing has always been rooted in quality-driven American manufacturing focused on customer needs. This foundation enables us to maintain rigorous quality standards while offering the flexibility required to deliver optimized cable products for highly specialized industrial applications.
Most products are certified to meet the necessary certifications and industry standards, including UL, ETL, IEEE/ICEA, NEMA, and/or ASTM standards. Allwire’s meticulous quality control program is combined with our deep familiarity with these certifications and requirements. The result is custom cable solutions engineered to meet the highest levels of safety and long-term performance for your given application.
Our company’s extensive experience across multiple sectors, ranging from utility substations to groundwater equipment, has provided invaluable insight into the diverse requirements of industrial cable applications. With an extensive knowledge base backed by decades of quality American manufacturing, Allwire anticipates the challenges customers face and develops solutions that address specific environmental conditions, installation constraints, and performance demands.
Allwire’s Customization Capabilities
Custom Cable Lengths and Configurations
One of the most fundamental customization options Allwire offers is the ability to provide cables in custom lengths and cut-to-length specifications. This seemingly simple capability addresses a critical pain point in industrial installations: excess cable creates waste and complicates installations, while insufficient length can halt projects and require costly splicing. By offering precise length customization, we help you optimize material usage, reduce installation time, and minimize points of potential failure.
Beyond length, Allwire provides flexibility in configuration. For example, many of our customers specify multi-conductor arrangements tailored to their equipment requirements, whether for simple two-conductor applications or complex multi-circuit control systems.
Insulation and Jacket Customization
The performance and longevity of industrial cables depend heavily on appropriate insulation materials. Allwire offers multiple insulation types, with PVC and XLPE (cross-linked polyethylene) as standard options, each suited to different environmental conditions and performance requirements. We also specialize in HDPE conduit and cable-in-conduit (CIC) products, which provide superior flexibility and protection for many modern industrial applications.
Jacket materials can be customized to withstand specific environmental challenges. Options include polyethylene (PE), polyvinyl chloride (PVC), flame-retardant PVC, and chlorinated polyethylene (CPE). The selection of jacket material is particularly crucial for applications in corrosive environments, areas requiring flame retardancy, or installations where toxic smoke generation would pose safety hazards.
Shielding Solutions for Protecting Signal Integrity
For applications where electromagnetic interference (EMI) could compromise signal integrity or control functions, Allwire provides both shielded and unshielded cable options. Shielded cables feature corrugated copper tape, aluminum mylar, or helically applied copper tape shields that protect against ambient electrical interference. These shielding options are essential in substation control applications where precise signal transmission is critical for equipment operation and protective device coordination.
Quality Industrial Cable and Conduit Products Engineered for Your Application
In an industrial landscape where specialized applications demand precise engineering solutions, Allwire’s comprehensive customization capabilities set it apart from commodity cable suppliers. Our ability to tailor cable lengths, insulation types, shielding configurations, conductor arrangements, and complete cable-in-conduit systems enables clients across utilities, renewable energy, oil and gas, irrigation, telecommunications, and transportation sectors to obtain cables built specifically for their operational requirements.
