What Makes This 4-Core 5.5mm² Cable Special?
This is not just a normal wire. It is a VCTF cable. This stands for Vinyl insulated Chloroprene sheathed Tough Flexible cable. It comes from Japan. YAZAKI is a famous brand. They make high-quality parts for cars and electronics. This cable meets the JIS C3312 standard. This is the Japanese Industrial Standard. It also has the PSE certification. PSE stands for Product Safety of Electrical Appliance & Materials. This is a must for Japan. But it is also great for other countries.
The cable has 4 cores. Each core is 5.5 square millimeters in size. This is a thick wire. It can carry a lot of power. The voltage is usually 600V. Some versions are 300V. It depends on your need. We can supply both. The conductor is made of fine annealed copper. This makes the wire very soft. It is not stiff like a rod. You can bend it easily. The insulation is PVC. The sheath is also PVC. This protects the wire from oil, water, and dirt. It is also RoHS compliant. This means it is safe for the environment. No harmful lead or chemicals.
Technical Specifications You Need to Know
When you buy cable, you need numbers. You need to know it fits your machine. Here are the exact specs for the YAZAKI VCTF 4G 5.5 cable:
- Brand: YAZAKI (or equivalent Japanese imports like Fujikura/Sumitomo)
- Model: VCTF / VCT
- Core Count: 4 Cores (4G)
- Cross-Sectional Area: 5.5 mm² (approx 10 AWG)
- Voltage Rating: 300V or 600V (Check your machine voltage)
- Conductor Material: Bare Copper or Tinned Copper (Tinned resists rust better)
- Insulation Material: PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride)
- Sheath Material: PVC
- Color Code: Black, White, Red, Green (Standard JIS colors)
- Operating Temperature: -10°C to 70°C (Can handle cold and heat)
- Bending Radius: Very small (High flexibility)
- Certifications: PSE, JIS, RoHS, REACH
- Packaging: 100 meters per roll or 305 meters per roll
- Application: Fixed wiring or moving parts (Drag chains)
These specs ensure the cable works hard. The 5.5mm² size handles high current. It is perfect for servo motors and big power supplies. The PVC jacket protects against oil. This is key for workshops.
Why Choose VCTF for Motors and Equipment?
You might ask, “Why not use a cheaper cable?” Here is the truth. Machines move. Cables get pulled. Cheap cables crack inside. You don’t see the damage until it is too late. The YAZAKI VCTF is different. It is designed for dynamic flexing.
Perfect for Drag Chains and Robot Arms
If you have a robot arm, the cable moves a lot. This is called a drag chain application. The cable must bend thousands of times. The VCTF 5.5mm² cable is built for this. It has a special stranding structure. The copper wires inside are very fine. This stops metal fatigue. The cable does not break. It keeps the power flowing to your robot.
Resists Oil and Chemicals
Look at a machine shop. There is oil everywhere. Grease, coolant, and dirt. Normal rubber cables swell up in oil. They get soft and weak. The PVC sheath on this cable is oil-resistant. It stays strong even in dirty environments. This makes it the best industrial control cable for CNC machines and injection molding machines.
Easy to Install and Strip
Electricians love this wire. Why? Because it is easy to work with. The outer sheath strips off cleanly. The inner insulation is colorful. You can see Black, White, Red, and Green clearly. This makes wiring the control panel fast. You don’t waste time guessing which wire is which. It saves labor costs.
Where Can You Use This 4G 5.5 Cable?
This cable is versatile. We sell it for many uses. Here are the top scenarios:
Servo Motors and CNC Machines
Servo motors need precise power. They also send signals back to the controller. This 4-core cable carries the power and the ground. It shields against noise. It ensures the motor moves smoothly. If you build or fix CNC machines, this is your wire.
Power Supply Extension Cords
You need to move power from point A to point B. Maybe you have a big power supply on the wall. You need to connect it to a machine 5 meters away. This extension cord cable is perfect. It is tough. People can trip over it. Forklifts can roll near it. It won’t break easily. It is much safer than a standard household cord.
Food and Packaging Machinery
Some factories wash equipment with water. The cable must be water-resistant. The PVC jacket handles moisture well. It is also easy to clean. This fits well in food processing plants and bottling lines.
Construction and Outdoor Use
If you use it outside, the sun can damage cheap wires. The PVC on the YAZAKI cable has UV protection. It handles sunlight better than standard rubber. It is great for temporary power on construction sites.

Frequently Asked Questions About This Cable
Is this cable suitable for 110V and 220V?
Yes. The cable is rated for 300V and 600V. It works fine for 110V (like in the USA/Japan) and 220V/380V (like in Europe/Asia). Just pick the right voltage rating when you order.
Can I use this for welding?
No. This is a power and control cable. It is not a welding cable. Welding cables need a special rubber jacket (like EPDM) to handle extreme heat. This VCTF cable will melt near a welder.
How flexible is it really?
It is very flexible. The bending radius is about 4 times the outer diameter. For a 5.5mm cable, that is very tight. You can snake it through tight spaces in a control cabinet.
What is the difference between VCT and VCTF?
VCT is for fixed wiring (doesn’t move). VCTF is for flexible wiring (moves). The “F” stands for Flexible. Since you have motors and moving equipment, you want VCTF.
