| Braids
New England Wire Technologies is well known as a manufacturer of high-quality flat braided wire, thermocouple wire, braided ground cable and flat braided ground cable products. We produce thermocouple wire, flat braided wire and flat flexible wires for diverse applications such as ground strap, motor brush leads, circuit breaker shunts, flexible bus bar, RFI/EMI shielding, and custom wire and cable shielding for mechanical protection of single or multi-conductor cables.
Cables & Strands
New England Wire Technologies produces a broad range of flexible custom cables and strands that are used primarily for manufacturing our specialty single and multiconductor custom wire and cable. These un-insulated, electronic wire and cable products are sold as round or flat braided wire for use as motor brush leads, circuit breaker shunts, and flexible bus bar. New England Wire Technologies’ own production requirements may limit the availability of many of the smaller conductors. Please check with our sales department for information on specific conductors.

:: Braids Specifications
|
Toll Braiding…Overbraiding customer-supplied core with copper, stainless steel, copper alloys, or various textiles.
Flat Braided Wire…For custom low-loss coax, miniature coax, and braid-reinforced tubing
Braid-reinforced Tubing…Thin-wall extrusion and fine-wire braiding for high-quality braid-reinforced tubing such as catheters and working channels.
Scope Braids…High-quality stainless steel braids in various tempers as required by medical cable manufacturers for use as reinforcement of medical imaging products such as endoscopes. |
- Single-Thickness Braids…Non-tubular, flat braided ground cable that is half the thickness of a standard flat braid. Used primarily as static drain wires in bags for filter systems, and other applications requiring a flat braided ground cable of minimum thickness.
- Braid-reinforced Capillary Tubing…Single or multiple copper, copper alloy, or stainless steel reinforcing braids over capillary tubing. Used in fluid or gas actuated pressure and temperature switches and gauges. Capillary tubing with overall extrusions of plastics such as PVC or polypropylene are also available.
- Monofilament Braids…Plastic monofilament braids used most often to produce low-capacitance, high-end audio cables, and for mechanical protection of multi-conductor cables in lieu of an extruded jacket. Thermocouple wire and cables insulated with monofilament reinforced silicone rubber also available.
- Insulated Braids…Insulated round and flat braided wire with extruded insulations for use as ground straps and flat power leads.

:: Cables & Strands Specifications
|
- Reinforced Cables & Strands…Conductors with increased tensile strength achieved by twisting wires or groups of wires around a non-conductive, high-strength fiber.
- Custom Rope-lay Cables and Bunched Strands…Rope-lay custom wire and cable and bunch-stranded conductors manufactured to customer specifications. Detailed electric wire design, shop drawings, product description or a sample of the custom conductor required.
|
- Copper Alloys…High-strength custom cable manufactured from copper alloys, enabling increased tensile strength and extended flex life as compared to conductors made with annealed copper.
- Litz Wire Specialty multiconductor custom cables made up of individually film-insulated strands of copper or copper alloys.
