PVC HOOK-UP WIRE NOW AVAILABLE IN BULK FROM ALPHA WIRE

Fast lead times and new bulk packaging make Alpha's Hook-Up Wire the only choice for high volume users.

Elizabeth NJ. . . Users of Alpha Wire’s industry leading line of PVC Hook-Up Wire can now purchase the three most popular UL and CSA constructions in economical bulk packaging. UL 1007/1569 and CSA Stranded Conductor, UL 1007/1569 and CSA Solid Conductor, and UL 1015 and CSA Stranded Conductor are packaged on convenient 5,000-foot putups (1,524m). Bulk packaging adds convenience and economy to Alpha's high quality PVC Hook-Up Wire. In addition, the company's expansive inventory provides short lead times on all bulk orders.

Alpha's PVC Hook-Up Wire has developed a hard-earned reputation for quality and reliability. Employing color-coded PVC(Polyvinylchloride) Insulation on stranded or solid tinned copper, the single conductor wire is utilized extensively for both electrical and electronic equipment. PVC is the most widely used Insulation because of its inherent flame-retardant properties.

Alpha's PVC Bulk Hook-Up Wire is manufactured to high quality standards assuring: strippability, strand uniformity, precise dimensions, and permanent colors and markings. The newly offered bulk products are available in sizes from 30 AWG to 10 AWG; conductors are either stranded or solid.

According to Craig Snyder, Senior Product Manager at Alpha Wire, the three UL and CSA styles are so popular that many customers are moving toward high volume usage. "Having these UL constructions available in bulk makes it easier for our customers to purchase the amount they need without paying a penalty – in either price or convenience. Bulk products make economic sense for our customers, and help Alpha deliver a level of service that the industry has come to expect."

By offering PVC Hook-Up Wire in bulk, Alpha Wire not only makes these industry-standard products more convenient to use, but also makes them some of the most economically priced products available today. The new bulk 5,000-foot spools are available with extremely short lead times.
