Review on 18/4 AWG Shielded CNC Wire (50FT) – Versatile Stranded Shielded Cable for Stepper Motors, CNC Machines, 3D Printers, and more! by John Souza

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Economical wiring, but not very easy to solder

As someone else pointed out, wire doesn't take solder well. By the time the wire is hot enough to actually soak the solder, the plastic sheath will begin to melt. Very strange, and I've tried lead, lead-free, all types of solder.

Pros
  • STRONG AND FLEXIBLE: A stepper motor cable designed for smooth flexing in a CNC or 3D printer circuit!
Cons
  • confused
