Red & White Nantucket Stripe UL LIsted 18-Gauge Cloth-Covered Round Pulley Cord (300V AC max; Not for Use As Extension Cord)

NOTE: SVT CLOTH COVERED CORD IS 18 GAUGE AND NOT RATED FOR USE AS AN EXTENSION CORD; FOR USE FOR LIGHTING AND SMALL APPLIANCE APPLICATIONS 720 WATTS OR BELOW ONLY

We believe our wire is the highest quality cloth covered wire available anywhere. We're the only UL-listed cloth-covered wire provider with pending patents on our designs.

Our cloth covered cord is round pulley cord that hangs straighter, bends more evenly and strips faster. It's more flexible than any other SVT wire we've found because it is custom made for us in the USA at a softness unmatched by any other supplier.

The cord is a versatile multi-use cord that adheres to UL specifications for braided wire. Our extra-soft durometer of less than 80 combined with 41-strand conductors achieve higher flexibility, better for a broader range of use. This cord is ideal for hanging lightweight pendants with minimal or no coil response and lays flatter for use with table and floor lamps. It's also easier to work with if you're wiring lamps or low-voltage appliances.**

Put simply, no other company offers a UL-Listed product made in America of such high quality, and no other company offers custom colors and patterns.

Woven Covering

We use 50 year old cast iron machines to weave cotton thread over the cord in 23 colors and two woven styles: Checkerboard (threads appear in square-checkerboard pattern) and Herringbone (threads appear in a v-pattern). The base color is the majority color, the pattern color is the highlight color. A pattern is referred to by its base color, followed by tracer color and tracer pattern. Solid colors are available in herringbone weave only.

Custom Orders

Custom orders are available in lengths of 1,000 ft or greater with a one-time setup fee of $25. We require a custom-order agreement to be signed and payment upfront. We will upload images of the pattern prior to manufacturing and orders cannot be refunded once the wire has been woven.  We accept custom orders in either checkerboard or herringbone styles and will work with you to be sure you receive the color and design you want.

Details

Cord can be used as 2-conductor cord by clipping the green (ground) conductor and using the black (hot) and white (neutral) conductors connected to your wiring terminals. 

We recommend wrapping the weave after stripping using UL-approved adhesive electrical tape and only attaching the wire to electrical attachments that are UL approved.
