The largest available single strand cable is 32mm. There's no reason it couldn't be made a bit larger, but at this point it's difficult to make a cable that remains flexible. So if you try to build it much bigger it's no longer a cable. Plus there is no real use for anything larger. A rope made of steel wire is much stronger than a single cable.
According to online authorities, the maximum diameter of single strand steel cable is 12mm. If essential, contact a steel cable provider for a more accurate number.
What else can I help you with?
What is the maximum length of a single 300 foot Ethernet cable that can be used for networking purposes?
The maximum length of a single 300-foot Ethernet cable that can be used for networking purposes is 100 meters, or approximately 328 feet.
Why telephone cables are single stranded?
They arent. Most are either 2 or 4 conductor. EDIT: Telephone cables in the UK consist of either four or six-core cable - depending on the circumstances of the installation. Each strand of the cable is a single wire wrapped in a colour-coded sheath to aid identification. The reason each wire is only a single strand, is because the current used to power the phone-line is extremely small, so doesn't need multi-stranded cable. (Snakester1962)
Cross sectional area of stranded wire?
For a stranded cable: Use a micrometre or vernier gauge to measure 1 strand; this gives you the diameter of the strand. Halve this figure for the radius, square the number and multiply by pi. (pi r squared is the area of a circle). Finally multiply the result by the number of strands which then gives you the true csa of the stranded cable.
How do you find the diameter of a cable?
Diameter=2piR
Another name of multi strand wire?
Another name that can be used for a multi-strand wire is a cable.
Is it advisable to rejoin any of the individual wires within CAT6 cables if single strand gets snapped off, and if so how?
It is not advisable and you should get a new cable instead.
What is the limitation of length for category 5 UTP network cable?
For a single link the maximum is 100 meters.
How to Convert electrical cable size to cable diameter?
Conversion of cable diameter to circle cross-sectional area and vice versa. Scroll down to related links and look at "Conversion of cable diameter to circle cross-sectional area".
What is the minimum bend radius for the diameter of cable?
It depends on the cable. 0 to 5000 volts the minimum bending radius is 6 x diameter of the cable. Above 5000 volts the minimum bending radius is 8 x the diameter of the cable.
What is the standard diameter of a bicycle brake cable?
The standard diameter of a bicycle brake cable is typically 1.5mm to 1.6mm.
What would happen if you use a shielded cable as a speaker cable?
There is a great deal of debate about the type of cable that should be used for speakers. Some say it should be large diameter single strand. Others maintain that it should be multi-strand. Still others claim that the conductors should be a certain spacing, have a specific insulator and more. In reality, the main requirement for speaker cable is that it should have a low resistance compared to the impedance of the speaker. The spacing, stranding and the lay up of the cable make little or no difference to the signal that reaches the speaker. There are cables designed specifically for speakers that are effectively co-ax cables with a center core and an outer screen as the return. Although most screened cables are not recommended for use as speaker cables, virtually all cables will work if the cable length is short. Speakers can draw a high current and small diameter cables can suffer from heating at high power levels. For this reason more than others, a small shielded cable is not the best choice.
