Overview
Brass 16g SJT is a warm, golden metallic — a polished look in a heavy-duty extension cord. Please note this wire is not designed for use with our sockets, canopies, or other lighting accessories; for pendant and fixture wiring, see our 18g SVT wire collection instead. Order as much or as little as your project needs.
Construction & Details
Our SJT-B wire is built from three conductor wires (positive, negative, and ground) in a thermoplastic insulated PVC jacket, finished with a high-quality braided rayon cloth cover. It is fully UL Listed, reflecting our commitment to safe, high-quality products, and is rated to 300V. We recommend ordering 1–2 feet more than you think you need to allow for length cuts and wire stripping. Maximum weight rating depends on your final application and assembly. As with all wiring projects, we recommend consulting a licensed electrician.

The wire is very good quality. I was able to adapt it to my hanging pendant lights and they look like new.
I want to give a special thanks to Jordan who was very helpful.

- Clayton S.Verified BuyerRated 5 out of 5 stars4 years agoReviewingDIY Fabric Wire by the Foot - 16 g. GunmetalGreat experience.
The product I received was just as described online. Good description online as well so there was no confusion as to if this was a 2 or3 conductor wire. Wire is of good quality and the fabric covering matched the online color exactly. The wire shipped quickly and was delivered about 5 days after I ordered it. Customer service was very quick to respond via email with my questions. I will buy again with confidence. Nice to find an outlet to buy specialty wires for my custom electrical projects.

- John K.Verified BuyerRated 5 out of 5 stars4 years agoReviewingDIY Fabric Wire by the Foot 16 g. - BlackExcellent cloth covered cord
I needed a high quality cloth covered cord to replace a 1920 era power cord for a player grand piano. The cord I purchased from Color Cord Company was an excellent compliment to the meticulous restoration that I am doing on a very fine Mason & Hamlin Ampico B piano. Thanks for the excellent product!
