Automotive Wire & Cable FAQs

What automotive primary wire types do you carry?

We stock SAE J-1128 primary wire (GXL, TXL, and SXL) in a full range of gauges and colors, plus SGT and SGX battery cable and specialty automotive constructions.

What is the difference between GXL, TXL, and SXL wire?

All three are cross-linked polyethylene automotive wires rated 125°C. They differ in wall thickness: TXL is thin-wall for weight and space savings, GXL is standard wall, and SXL is heavy wall for extra abrasion protection.

Do you supply wire for EV and hybrid vehicles?

Yes. We supply high-voltage EV battery cable and charging-system wire alongside conventional primary wire, supporting both OEM production and aftermarket EV conversion work.

Can I order automotive wire in small quantities?

Yes. We support restoration shops, fleet maintenance, and production lines alike, from single spools to volume releases, cut to length and shipped nationwide.
