270796 - Miller 5-Conductor Control Cable, 20 AWG, CPE Jacket (Sold Per Foot)

Industrial-Grade 5-Conductor Control Cable for Welding Equipment

The Miller 270796 is a premium replacement control cable designed specifically for the rigorous demands of industrial welding environments. Engineered as a direct replacement for the legacy Miller stock number 175284, this cable ensures seamless integration with existing Miller equipment that requires a 5-conductor (5/C) configuration. The cable is constructed with 20 AWG conductors, a gauge selected to provide optimal signal integrity for control circuits while maintaining the flexibility necessary for dynamic routing within machine chassis or through cable management systems.

A defining feature of this product is its Chlorinated Polyethylene (CPE) jacket. In the context of MRO (Maintenance, Repair, and Operations), material selection is critical. CPE is renowned for its exceptional resistance to a wide array of environmental stressors commonly found in heavy manufacturing and fabrication shops. It offers superior protection against oils, solvents, and other industrial chemicals that typically degrade standard PVC jackets. Furthermore, the CPE jacket provides excellent abrasion resistance and thermal stability, ensuring that the internal conductors remain protected even when the cable is dragged across rough concrete floors or exposed to the radiant heat typical of welding operations.

This cable is classified as AWM (Appliance Wiring Material), a UL designation that certifies its suitability for internal wiring of appliances and electronic equipment. This rating guarantees that the insulation and jacketing meet specific safety and performance criteria regarding voltage, temperature, and flammability. For technicians and engineers, this means the Miller 270796 is not just a generic wire but a spec-compliant component that maintains the safety rating of the welding power source or wire feeder it is installed in.

Sold by the foot, this product offers flexibility for maintenance teams to order the exact length required for specific repairs or custom fabrication setups. Whether rewiring a wire feeder control harness, replacing a damaged trigger cord, or extending a remote control interface, the Miller 270796 provides the reliability and durability expected from OEM Miller components. Its 5-conductor architecture makes it versatile for various analog and digital control signals used in modern welding systems.
