From 3M, the 3365 series of grey ribbon cable, 28 awg wire on 0.05in. centres, permits mass termination to a broad line of 3M IDC connectors. The 7x36 tinned stranded copper wire provides flexibility and extended product life. First conductor is identified by a red leading edge.

• Insulation resistance >1x10¹⁰ Ω/3m
• Suitable for mass termination
• Highly flexible

Ribbon cabling is frequently used in computing and in communication applications. They are often used internally in electronic appliances, and are often used in hard drive wiring. Although they are limited to straight-run installations, they have advantages in that they can provide space efficient solutions to high data transmission. Ribbon cabling is often used in;

• Test and Measure
• Computing
• Robotics

3M is a trusted name in connector and wiring solutions, providing high quality cables, connectors and accessories. From industrial computing to domestic applications, 3M provides the reliable and versatile product range you need.

These cables are not to be regarded as power cables or cables for the direct connection of equipment to mains power supplies.

Connect your data transmission and communication equipment with this ribbon cable from 3M. It comes in a length of 30 metres, so you can cut it to the exact size you need for your application. A red edge on the cable indicates where the first conductor is, preventing reverse connections and reducing accidental damage to electronics during installation. As this cable is zippable, it can be used to create branched connections or for discrete termination, making it highly versatile.

• Wide operating temperature range of -20°C to +105°C for use in demanding applications
• PVC (polyvinyl chloride) jacket insulation is resistant to wear, moisture and chemicals for use in harsh industrial environments
• Stranded copper wire provides increased flexibility to minimise breakage and enhance the cable's lifespan

• Test and measurement equipment
• Robotics and automation industry
• Industrial communications
• Electronics industry

As the conductors are made of copper with 89% conductivity, this ribbon cable provides a highly efficient connection. It also has an insulation resistance of >
