What conductor gauges and materials do you use for medical cable assemblies?
We build with fine-gauge conductors from 42 AWG up to 24 AWG, including micro-coaxial bundles for imaging probes. Jackets use medical-grade PVC, silicone and TPE/TPU, selected to meet USP Class VI and ISO 10993 biocompatibility requirements against your patient-contact classification. Materials and construction are confirmed at RFQ, not assumed.
Are your medical cable assemblies sterilization-tolerant?
Yes. We build to autoclave, EtO (ethylene oxide) and gamma sterilization profiles. The right jacket, insulation and overmold material depends on which method and how many reprocessing cycles the device sees, so send the sterilization method with the RFQ and we match the construction to it.
Do you make micro-coaxial cable bundles for ultrasound and imaging?
Yes. We assemble high-density micro-coax bundles in the 40–46 AWG range for ultrasound transducers, endoscopic and intravascular imaging, with controlled impedance and tight flex-life. See our dedicated micro-coaxial cable assembly service for the miniature geometries imaging modules require.
Which connectors do you terminate for medical devices?
We terminate LEMO-style push-pull, ODU, Fischer and circular medical connectors, and overmold the cable exit with custom strain-relief boots for sealing and repeated-handling durability. Connector family is matched to the electrical, mechanical and cleaning requirements rather than defaulting to a generic industrial part.
Are you ISO 13485 certified?
We hold ISO 13485 certification for medical wire harness production (valid through December 2028), providing the traceability and documentation medical-device programs expect. Production runs under our ISO 9001 quality management system, ISO 13485 and IPC/WHMA-A-620 workmanship. Define the supplier-control expectation for your program at RFQ so the right documentation scope is quoted.
What standards do you build medical cable assemblies to?
We manufacture to IEC 60601-1 medical electrical safety inputs and IPC/WHMA-A-620 Class 3 workmanship — the highest-reliability acceptance class — with biocompatible materials per USP Class VI / ISO 10993, under our ISO 9001 system. Final scope depends on the device, risk class and validation plan.
What testing is typical for a medical cable assembly?
Most programs start with 100% continuity and polarity verification. Depending on device risk, teams add insulation resistance, hipot (dielectric withstand), pull-force, connector-retention or customer-specific fixture testing. We target high first-pass yield and can provide lot- or unit-level records to match the program.
What lead time and volumes do you support?
Engineering samples typically ship in 7–10 business days when parts and tooling are available, scaling from prototypes to recurring production programs. Prototypes are built with production-intent work instructions so fit, cleaning resistance and routing are validated before pilot or volume release.
