Cable Fillers

Our Cable Filler Product Line

Untwisted Plastic Cable Filler

Flat Untwisted Fibrillated Fillers
Our untwisted plastic cable fillers fill empty spaces within a cable and provide structural support for easy handling during cable manufacturing. We use a specialized process to create a soft mesh-like pattern in our flat fibrillated fillers, allowing them to fill the vacant spaces between conductors inside the cable uniformly.

Standard and flame-retardant tubes are available from .04″ (1.2mm) to .180″ (4.6mm). The put-up is on a 12″ traverse by 3.25″ I.D. tubes.

Twisted Plastic Cable Filler

Twisted Plastic Fillers
Used to construct cables to provide mechanical support and maintain their shape, the twisting in our plastic fillers helps reduce electromagnetic interference (EMI) and crosstalk between conductors. Where a round profile is best for filling a void (typically in larger cables), we manufacture our twisted plastic fillers by twisting an extruded tape to form a round length.

Standard and flame-retardant materials are available from .045″ (1.2mm) to .350″ (8.9mm). The put-up is on a 10″ traverse by 2″ I.D. tubes. We can include plugs in the tube to bring the I.D. to 1″.

Twisted Paper Cable Filler

Twisted Paper Fillers
Our twisted paper cable fillers maintain the geometry of an electrical cable by supporting and stabilizing it. We manufacture our twisted paper fillers by slitting large rolls of paper into varying widths, dipping the strips into wax, and twisting the strips around a reinforcement material (typically fiberglass) for a solid round filler.

Standard and flame-retardant materials are available from .055″ (1.4mm) to .313″ (8.0mm). The put-up is on a 10″ traverse by 2″ I.D. tubes. We can include plugs in the tube to bring the I.D. to 1″.

FAQs

What is a cable filler, and why is it used?

A cable filler fills spaces between conductors to maintain shape and structure. It adds strength, reduces movement, and ensures uniform jacket application.

How do I choose the right cable filler for my application?

The right cable filler depends on the cable type, environment, and performance needs. For optimal fit, consider flame retardancy, strength, and flexibility.

How do I choose between paper and plastic cable fillers?

The choice depends on cable design and application needs. Paper fillers offer thermal resistance and rigidity, while plastic fillers provide flexibility and moisture resistance.

What types of cables typically require electrical cable fillers?

Electrical cable fillers are used in power, control, telecommunication, and instrumentation cables to maintain shape, support conductors, and ensure consistent cable geometry.

Are your cable filler products customizable to specific manufacturing requirements?

We offer customizable fillers by size, material, and flame rating tailored to meet manufacturing needs and industry standards.
