UL 5335 Multi-Core Mica Glass Braid Cable Overview
This page covers UL AWM Style 5335 mica and glass braid insulated cable in a multiple-conductor construction, supplied by CableApex as a factory-direct manufacturer. UL Style 5335 covers a conductor range of 22 AWG through 4/0 AWG and permits two or more qualified conductors described by the Style to be cabled together. This page’s primary focus is that multi-conductor construction; buyers requiring a single-conductor UL 5335 construction should confirm that requirement separately during quotation.
UL 5335 multi-core mica glass braid cable is a non-extruded insulation construction, rated 450°C and 600 Vac, built from mica with glass braid for internal wiring where protected from mechanical abuse. Core count, conductor material and finish, shield requirement, and packaging are confirmed according to the ordered specification.

Mica and Glass Braid Construction by Conductor Size
| Conductor Size | Mica (min. avg.) | Glass Braid, Silicone Varnish or TFE Finish (min. avg.) |
|---|---|---|
| 22–12 AWG | 23 mils | 5 mils |
| 11–4 AWG | 27 mils | 10 mils |
| 2 AWG–4/0 AWG | 32 mils | 15 mils |
These are the exact minimum average construction values from the UL Style 5335 record. They do not translate into an invented finished conductor or cable outside diameter. Conductor material, plating, strand count, and resistance are not established by the Style-level record and are confirmed according to your ordered specification.
UL 5335 Multiple-Conductor Cable Assembly
Two or More Conductors Cabled Together
UL Style 5335 permits two or more conductors described by the Style to be cabled together, with a maximum assembly outside diameter of 1.500 inches. This 1.500-inch figure is the maximum permitted OD for the assembly, not a standard or typical finished diameter — actual assembly OD depends on core count, conductor size, and construction, and is confirmed for the ordered configuration. Core count is not fixed by the Style and must be specified according to your required assembly; this page does not present fixed 2-core, 3-core, 4-core, or other preset specifications.
Binder, Fiberglass Fillers and Overall Treated Glass Braid
The multiple-conductor assembly may use a mica glass binder and/or fiberglass fillers as optional construction elements. Unlike binder and fillers, the overall treated glass braid is part of the qualified UL 5335 multi-conductor assembly construction itself — the UL record states that the assembly has an overall treated glass braid. This is distinct from the individual glass braid on each insulated conductor: individually insulated conductors, each with their own mica-and-glass-braid construction, are cabled together, optionally bound and filled, and the completed assembly carries its own overall treated glass braid. We do not publish a thickness, coverage percentage, or tensile/abrasion rating for this overall assembly braid.
Optional Nickel / Nickel-Coated Copper / NiCrFe / SS304 Shield
UL Style 5335 permits an optional shield of 36–30 AWG strands, using Type A Nickel, 27% minimum nickel-coated copper, nickel-chromium-iron, or stainless steel 304. This is an optional shield construction, distinct from the primary current-carrying conductors — the primary conductor material is not established as nickel, nickel-coated copper, nickel-chromium-iron, or stainless steel by this optional shield feature. We do not publish shielding effectiveness, EMI attenuation, braid coverage, or transfer impedance for this optional shield. If your application requires it, specify the shield material when requesting a quotation.
Protected Internal Wiring Application Boundary
UL Style 5335 is designated for internal wiring where protected from mechanical abuse. This is the application boundary for the product supplied from this page — protected internal wiring and protected multi-conductor internal wiring within equipment. It is not intended as building wire, field wiring, tray cable, branch circuit cable, general-purpose power cable, outdoor cable, direct-burial cable, control-cabinet field wiring, welding cable, automotive cable, or EV cable. The supplied UL record does not state a repeated-flexing restriction for this Style, and this page does not claim high-flex or continuous-flex capability, as no flex data is established by the Style-level record.
UL Marking and Documentation Requirements
Qualifying UL AWM Style 5335 constructions can be supplied through the relevant partner manufacturing scope associated with the applicable UL Recognized Component file on record. UL marking and related documentation depend on the specific qualified construction ordered; not every configuration automatically carries a UL Mark, and marking requirements should be confirmed when requesting a quotation. We do not publish current-carrying capacity or an ampacity table on this page — this must be evaluated against the actual conductor construction, assembly configuration, and equipment requirements. We do not guarantee that a given shipment will pass a customer’s internal or third-party audit, certification review, or project bidding requirement.
RoHS and REACH are separate regulatory frameworks from UL recognition and are not treated as equivalent certifications on this page. Applicable RoHS / REACH documentation, where required, is confirmed according to the ordered materials and your documentation requirements.
