Ohio Wire Buyers buys reusable surplus Belden cable from businesses anywhere in Ohio, including unused full reels, partial reels, boxed coils and usable cut lengths. To sell Belden cable, send the product number, label and jacket photos, condition and remaining footage for a written offer before pickup. We buy cable as product for resale and reuse, not as scrap metal by the pound.

How do you identify Belden cable before selling it?

Start with the product number, not the jacket color or a description such as “shielded control wire.” Belden Inc. is a publicly traded company headquartered in St. Louis, Missouri, with shares listed on the New York Stock Exchange under BDC. Its cable portfolio includes products for industrial signals, motor drives, networking and audio/video applications; those uses do not make the cables interchangeable.

Photograph the Belden name and complete product designation wherever they appear on the jacket and package. Preserve letters attached to the number, color information and packaging details rather than reducing every label to a shorthand description. Our guide to reading reel tags explains which label fields belong on the inventory list.

Belden and its product names and trademarks belong to their respective owners. Ohio Wire Buyers is not affiliated with, endorsed by or an authorized dealer of Belden; we buy surplus product that sellers already own. See the broader wire and cable brands we buy if your lot contains other manufacturers.

What do Belden 8760 and 9841 actually tell a buyer?

These product numbers identify different constructions, even though both cables can arrive as gray-looking shielded pairs. Belden lists 8760 for low-voltage analog signals, digital control, line-level audio and related applications. Its 9841 product is an RS-485 communication cable with a nominal characteristic impedance of 120 ohms.

Belden product Verified conductor construction Shield and jacket Information to preserve
8760 One pair of 18 AWG stranded tinned copper conductors Overall Beldfoil shield; PVC jacket; CM Complete package number and continuous footage
9841 One pair of 24 AWG stranded tinned copper conductors Overall Beldfoil plus tinned copper braid; PVC jacket; CM RS-485 identity and intact shielding
29501 Three 14 AWG stranded tinned copper phase conductors, with insulated and uninsulated ground wires Overall Beldfoil plus tinned copper braid; black PVC jacket VFD designation, grounds and rating legend

The table follows Belden's product specifications, not a visual identification rule. Do not substitute one number for another because the cable fits the same reel. For mixed multiconductor control cable and instrumentation cable surplus, list each product separately so the construction stays traceable.

Why does Belden VFD cable need a separate description?

A variable frequency drive cable is more than ordinary multiconductor cable with a heavy jacket. Belden's 29501 uses cross-linked polyethylene, or XLPE, insulation on the phase conductors, a PVC-insulated ground, an uninsulated ground wire and foil-and-braid shielding. Belden describes it as a 300% Ground Flexible VFD product and lists TC-ER and flexible motor supply cable ratings.

That identification matters when a prospective user is matching a drive installation specification. Send a readable rating legend and photographs of the existing cut end showing the ground and shield arrangement. Do not peel back intact cable solely to produce a photograph, and do not remove the braid or ground wires to make the reel lighter.

Keep motor-drive leftovers apart from general tray cable unless the labels establish the same product. Our VFD cable selling page covers the material details needed for that family. A reference to a drive on project paperwork does not prove that every nearby reel is VFD motor cable.

How should you describe DataTuff, Cat6 and REVConnect leftovers?

DataTuff is Belden's industrial Ethernet cable family, with Category 5e, Category 6 and Category 6A options among its offerings. The product range includes different shielding, conductor and jacket constructions. Record the exact product number instead of treating “industrial Ethernet” as a complete specification.

Belden also offers REVConnect Category 6A systems, including 10GXS and 10GX shielded systems. REVConnect describes cable and connectivity together; a connector carton or project bill of materials does not establish the identity of an unmarked cable box. Match the box label to the jacket before adding it to the lot.

For Cat6 and other data cable, show the category, printed listing, jacket condition and package opening. Keep unopened boxes intact and describe opened boxes honestly. Flag crushed sections, tight kinks and tangled pull-box contents rather than assuming that unused cable is undamaged.

What affects the resale assessment of a Belden lot?

The offer depends on the identifiable product, continuous usable footage, condition, packaging, documentation and demand for that construction. Original labels make a lot easier to describe accurately, but a sealed package still needs to match the material offered. A damaged flange, missing label or unexplained splice is information to disclose before pickup.

Separate continuous lengths from collections of remnants. Belden's 8760 listing includes the package designation 8760 0601000 for a chrome-colored reel with an original length of 1,000 feet; that label does not establish what remains after a job. Use our remaining-footage guide if you need to document a partial reel, and label uncertain footage as estimated.

Do not strip reusable signal cable just because it contains copper. The insulation, pair construction and shielding are part of the product being evaluated. If the cable cannot be reused, we say so; a scrap metal recycler may then be the right buyer. Our surplus-versus-scrap guide explains that distinction.

Which Ohio business leftovers are worth organizing for review?

An Ohio automation integrator can present unused cable remaining after a panel build or machine installation. A manufacturing facility can separate spare reels from stock assigned to equipment maintenance. These are situations for review, not claims that a named plant uses Belden or has material for sale.

For manufacturing plant surplus, ask the engineering or storeroom contact to identify which stock is released for disposal. Keep the plant's internal stock number beside the Belden product number so purchasing records can be matched. Distributor overstock and contractor closeout lots should likewise distinguish customer-owned material from company-owned inventory.

What should you send for a Belden cable offer?

Send a whole-lot photograph, each reel or box label, a readable stretch of jacket print and existing cut-end photos. Include close-ups of damage without hiding it behind packaging. Pair the photos with a list showing the full product designation, package count, remaining length per piece, condition and whether the cable is unused or used but potentially reusable.

Add an invoice, purchase order, closeout paperwork or company letter establishing ownership. Note whether the pickup point is a jobsite, warehouse, plant or yard, and describe available loading access. For an opened box, show the label and remaining contents rather than sending only a photo of the closed carton.

How do you sell Belden cable with pickup in Ohio?

We review your photos and footage list, then reply with questions or a written offer before pickup. Payment method and timing are confirmed in writing before pickup, and the count is checked against the written terms when material is collected. The selling process explains those steps without assuming an offer or pickup timeline.

Ohio Wire Buyers arranges pickup anywhere in Ohio and has no Ohio street address, office, yard or drop-off. To have your Belden surplus reviewed, send your cable details for an offer or call 951-403-5738. Keep the labels attached and the cable intact while we review the lot.

Frequently asked questions

Do you buy Belden cable on small spools?

Ohio Wire Buyers reviews reusable cable on small spools as well as larger reels, boxed coils and cut lengths. Send the Belden part number, remaining footage and photographs of the label and cable condition. A small spool is not automatically scrap, but its usable length, identity and condition determine whether it fits a resale purchase.

Can I sell Belden cable without the original invoice?

Send the documentation your business has, such as a purchase order, project closeout paperwork or company letter establishing ownership. Ohio Wire Buyers verifies the seller and proof of ownership and keeps a written purchase record. A cable label identifies the product; it does not by itself establish that your company owns the material or may sell it.

Is Ohio Wire Buyers an authorized Belden dealer?

No. Ohio Wire Buyers is not affiliated with, endorsed by or an authorized dealer of Belden. We buy reusable surplus cable that businesses already own for resale and reuse. Belden and its product names and trademarks belong to their respective owners. Our review concerns the specific surplus material offered by the seller.

Does the length on a Belden label show what is left?

Not necessarily. The factory label describes the original package, while a partial reel may contain less cable or separate pieces. Report the remaining length and how it was determined, and identify estimates as estimates. Keep each continuous piece separate on the footage list rather than treating combined footage as a single usable run.
