FAQs

What if I can't find the exact wire I need?

There is no need to compromise.  Pelican Wire is a custom wire manufacturer with a team of Engineers to help you get the ideal wire solution for your needs. Stranded or solid, insulated or bare, our team is here to work with you on the design and production of your wire. If you need additional help with your project, please CONTACT US.

Can I order a custom wire without being required to pay for the Minimum Order Quantity (MOQ)?

As a custom wire shop, we carry an ‘On Demand’ inventory of the materials necessary to make the wire on order from our customers. Should your wire order call for any materials we don’t have in-stock, a Minimum Order Quantity (MOQ) could be required, based on supplier requirements. However, most custom production runs can be done for as little as $1,000.

What is the advantage of purchasing from your online store?

Pelican Wire supports early-stage development work by offering small quantity purchases through our online store, thus avoiding the Minimum Order Quantity (MOQ) found in custom-manufactured items. This allows you to purchase directly from our ‘In Stock’ quantities, which are as little as 50 or 100 feet.
