UL2960 30 V 60 °C PP/PE Multi-Conductor Cable

UL2960 is a PE-insulated multi-conductor cable manufactured by Xinya Electronic Co., Ltd. It is rated 30 V, 60 °C. The catalogue describes it as a multicore construction. It is supplied in 45 recorded constructions spanning 22–30 AWG, with an overall diameter of 2.6–6.7 mm, cut to the length you order.

UL2960 at a glance

• 22–30 AWG, across 45 listed constructions
• Stranded conductor throughout the documented range
• Insulation wall 0.21–0.25 mm
• Overall diameter 2.6–6.7 mm
• Max. conductor resistance 59.4–381 Ω/km at 20 °C DC (roughly 18.1–116.1 Ω per 1,000 ft)
• All 45 listed rows carry a shield (Al-mylar)

How UL2960 compares with its nearest alternatives

UL2960 and UL1792 share the 30 V rating and PE insulation. The distinction is in maximum conductor temperature (60 °C against 80 °C). Overall diameter runs 2.6–6.7 mm for UL2960 against 1.9–3.3 mm for UL1792. UL1792 is the tighter of the two, so UL2960 is the option to take only when the larger diameter is acceptable. Insulation wall is 0.21–0.25 mm against 0.32–0.8 mm.

Conductor, core count and shielding

Every construction listed for UL2960 is a stranded conductor, which suits harnesses and assemblies that are flexed or routed around a bend. The resistance column gives the maximum permitted value for the conductor at 20 °C DC.

Core counts run from 2 to 10 in the documented range. Overall diameter grows with core count, so the figure to quote for gland, grommet and connector selection is the finished-cable diameter column rather than the single-core insulation diameter.

How to read the UL2960 table

“Insulation O.D. (mm)” is measured over the insulation, not over a jacket, tape or braid. “Jacket O.D. (mm)” is the finished cable diameter, which is the value to quote for gland, grommet and connector sizing. Conductor resistance is stated at 20 °C DC per kilometre — divide by 3.281 for ohms per 1,000 ft.

Questions buyers ask about UL2960

Which sizes of UL2960 are available?

22–30 AWG, across the 45 constructions in the table below. Sizes outside the table can be quoted on request.

Is UL2960 a stranded conductor?

Every construction documented for this line is stranded. Confirm the strand count you need — the “n/mm” figure in the table — because resistance and flexibility both depend on it, and two rows at the same size can differ.

What overall diameter does UL2960 run to?

The documented range is 2.6–6.7 mm. Quote the size, not the style alone, when the diameter has to fit a specific gland, grommet or channel.
