The price range for hot runner cables typically falls between 3.5 and 500 RMB per meter. The specific price depends on factors such as the brand, specifications (e.g., core count, shielding layers), whether the cable is customized, and the procurement channel. Generally, standard models purchased in bulk range from 9 to 50 RMB per meter, while specialized custom cables or high-end models from imported brands can reach several hundred RMB.
I. Main Price Ranges and Influencing Factors
1. Economical Domestic Cables (3.5 – 15 RMB/meter)
Suitable for general operating conditions; typically feature single-layer shielding and a PVC jacket.
Example: A 25-core hot runner temperature control box cable supplied by manufacturers in regions such as Dongguan (Guangdong) or Shanghai, quoted at approximately 9.66 RMB/meter.
These cables prioritize practicality and are suitable for replacement purposes or use in non-critical areas.
2. Mid-to-High-End Domestic / Joint-Venture Brands (30 – 100 RMB/meter)
Feature double-layer shielding and high-temperature-resistant materials (e.g., silicone jackets), offering superior anti-interference capabilities and durability.
Example: The "Kemeng" temperature control cable from Jiangsu Kemeng Wire & Cable Co., Ltd.-a 25-core multi-core cable-is priced at 33.00 RMB per meter.
3. Imported or Custom High-End Models (200 – 500 RMB/meter and above)
Predominantly consist of imported brands (e.g., original Husky cables) or specialized custom solutions (designed for ultra-high temperatures, low capacitance, or radiation resistance).
Typically utilized in high-reliability environments such as medical equipment or aerospace applications; prices are generally not publicly listed and require direct inquiry.
II. Key Factors Influencing Price
|
Factor |
Description |
|
Core Count |
A higher core count (e.g., 16-core, 25-core) results in higher costs. |
|
Shielding Structure |
Double-layer shielding (inner + outer shielding) is 30% to 50% more expensive than single-layer shielding. |
|
Materials |
Silicone jackets are more expensive than PVC jackets; the higher the temperature resistance rating, the higher the price. |
|
Customization |
Custom services-such as non-standard lengths, connectors, or colors-will increase the overall cost. |
|
Brand & Channel |
Original manufacturer accessories are more expensive than third-party brands; bulk purchasing via B2B platforms typically offers more favorable pricing. |
