For over 57 years, the company has prioritized quality and customer service, expanding its reach to serve clients nationwide from California to Florida. Allwire demonstrates a commitment to sustainability, integrating green energy solutions like Mainspring Energy's linear generator into its facility to support cleaner and more energy-resilient operations.
Extensive Product Portfolio
Allwire offers a diverse range of quality-built control cables, catering to critical sectors such as substation control, renewable energy, oil and gas, pump and irrigation, and cathodic protection. Their cable offerings include armored, all-weather, shielded, unshielded, heavy-duty, and various voltage types, with capabilities up to 500 MCM in size. Complementing their cable line, Allwire also manufactures HDPE conduit up to 4' O.D., a preferred material for infrastructure projects including electrical distribution and telecommunication systems, valued for its mechanical strength, flexibility, and chemical resistance.
Innovative Cable-in-Conduit (CIC) Solutions
A significant offering from Allwire is its pre-installed Cable-in-Conduit (CIC) systems. This innovative solution involves factory-installing various cable types into flexible polyethylene duct systems, ranging from 1/2' to 4' nominal conduit sizes. CIC streamlines installation, reduces on-site labor, minimizes the risk of cable damage, and enhances job site efficiency. These systems provide superior protection against moisture, abrasion, and environmental wear, making them ideal for municipal, CATV, fiber optic, irrigation, agricultural, and power applications. Allwire warrants the entire CIC system when supplying the cable, excluding installation.
Specialized Cable Applications
Beyond standard offerings, Allwire provides specialized cable solutions. This includes submersible pump cables for groundwater equipment, known for their super-flexible copper stranding, abrasion/cut resistance, and durability against weathering, ozone, UV radiation, acids, alkalis, oils, and grease. They also produce low-voltage twisted-pair wires for security, sound, and audio equipment, alongside fire-protective wire and cable solutions engineered for maximum safety, complying with relevant UL and N.E.C. standards. For utility and industrial circuits, Allwire manufactures multi-conductor shielded and unshielded substation control cables, designed for optimal performance in demanding environments and meeting stringent flame tests.
