6-Core 0.2mm² Shielded Cable
Signal Transmission You Can Rely On, Bundle After Bundle
Field wiring errors and electrical noise don’t just corrupt signals. They paralyze production lines, trigger phantom faults, and chew through maintenance budgets. A single intermittent connection can cost hours of troubleshooting. The 6-core 0.2mm² shielded cable eliminates that risk in compact control and instrumentation runs. It combines multi-conductor convenience with a continuous shield — designed to keep low-voltage signals clean and your systems online without over-engineering the installation.
Why This Cable Builds a Stronger Signal Chain
Layered Shield that Actually Suppresses Interference
[Feature] Continuous aluminium/polyester tape with a tinned copper drain wire — factory-bonded and consistently applied.
Conductive adhesives and tight wrap geometry prevent gaps when the cable flexes.
[Advantage] Uniform shield coverage under dynamic conditions. No weak spots that turn into antennas.
[Benefit] Sensor data stays repeatable even when cable trays carry VFD motor leads. You avoid nuisance trips, false alarms, and the need to over-spec signal conditioners just to fight electrical noise.
6 Cores in a Single Jacket, No Field Lacing
0.2mm² conductors are small, but terminating them individually inside a duct takes time.
[Feature] Colour-coded 6-core construction — cores pre-twisted and ready for termination, stripped clean every time because of consistent jacket wall thickness.
[Advantage] Half the pulling effort of running three separate pairs. Control cabinet wiring becomes faster, supplier part counts drop.
[Benefit] Panel builders and field engineers finish installations sooner. Fewer connection points reduce intermittent opens caused by wiring fatigue over time.
Fine-Stranded Copper for Cold Bends and Vibration
Solid conductors that work harden under repetitive motion turn into fracture points.
[Feature] 0.2mm² conductors built with Class 5/6 fine stranded bare copper, insulated with semi-rigid PVC or XLPE compound. Strand count kept high relative to cross-section.
[Advantage] Conductor remains flexible after thousands of micro-motions. Cable can be dressed into tight cable chains or sensor housings without kinking the core.
[Benefit] Reliable service in robotic tooling, vibrating machinery skids, and moving sensor heads. Post-installation failures caused by conductor snap are practically removed from the root cause list.
Skinny Profile That Solves Density Problems
Multi-pin connector backshells and drag chain compartments aren’t getting bigger.
[Feature] Overall diameter typically below 5.5 mm with thin wall yet robust outer jacket — tight extrusion control keeps it round under clamping.
[Advantage] Fits gland plates and cable entries already populated with feedback cables and Ethernet lines. No need to specify larger connectors or junction boxes just to accommodate the cable.
[Benefit] Higher I/O density in same physical footprint — machine builders pack more functionality without redesigning the electrical enclosure.

Specifications reflect standard catalogue production. Custom constructions — including oil‑resistant jackets, different colour codes, or higher strand counts — are routine and do not require exotic minimums.
Where You Find This Cable Working Hardest
Industrial sensor cabling and signal distribution in CNC machinery.
Here the shield suppresses motor drive harmonics that would otherwise corrupt limit switch and encoder feedback — servo faults drop measurably after retrofitting.
Building automation and HVAC actuator wiring.
Plenum spaces and false floors cram hundreds of low‑voltage control circuits together; the 6‑core layout lets you land multiple damper actuators or valve positioners through one pull while the shield stops nearby mains from inducing voltage on floating signal lines.
Test and measurement racks.
Precision instruments need repeatable low‑level signals. This cable keeps thermocouple extension and strain gauge wiring quiet enough that your DAQ floor noise stays where the calibration certificate says it should be.
Access control and security systems.
Card readers, request‑to‑exit motions, and door position switches often share a common cable path with inductive loads. Shielded multi‑core prevents false triggers that desensitize operators to real security events.
Marine and offshore auxiliary circuits.
Supplied with a cross‑linked PE insulation and enhanced oil‑resistant jacket, this same geometry handles 0‑1V engine monitoring loops in damp, vibration‑heavy engine rooms where failures aren’t an option.
Compliance and Quality Infrastructure
- ✅ ISO 9001:2015 manufacturing site — traceable lot numbers from granule intake to final spooling
- ✅ CE marking under the Low Voltage Directive (LVD) on standard 300/500V designs
- ✅ RoHS (2011/65/EU) compliance on all common jacket and insulation grades
- ✅ Flame propagation tested per IEC 60332‑1‑2
- ✅ Conductor resistance and insulation integrity verified 100% online with spark testing and in‑line diameter gauging
- ✅ Available with full material declarations and REACH compliance statements for EU import clearance
Our QA team releases finished spools only after sampling for capacitance unbalance and shield continuity — two metrics that predict field‑noise problems before the cable ever leaves the factory floor.
Questions Procurement Engineers Usually Ask
Can the shield construction be changed to a tinned copper braid, and what does it do to the outside diameter?
Yes. A braided shield with ≥80% optical coverage adds roughly 0.7‑1.2 mm to the overall diameter depending on the braid angle chosen. Braided versions also improve torsional durability for applications that twist continuously — we’ll confirm the exact diameter against your connector spec before acceptance.
We need this cable on a continuous 500m reel without splices. Is that possible for 0.2mm² multi-core?
500m single‑length reels are standard from our production line. Longer unbroken lengths up to 1000m can be produced with a small surcharge to cover the extra spooling time. Splice‑free guarantees are noted on the test certificate with each reel; ask if that needs to be part of your 3.1 inspection package.
What is the MOQ if I need a non‑standard jacket colour — say, signal blue RAL 5005?
Custom jacket colours do not force a huge minimum. Typically we accept 500m per colour for multi‑core shielded cables when the other construction parameters remain unchanged. The lead time extends by 5‑7 working days. Smaller proof‑of‑concept quantities can ship from a master batch with small upcharge, so you don’t have to buy a full production run just to validate the colour.

The right cable is about more than a spec sheet line item. It’s about making sure your bill of materials doesn’t hide a future service headache. Send us your panel layout or cable schedule. We’ll match the jacket compound, shield type, and core colour code to the environment — and provide a fixed‑cost quotation with transparent delivery times.
