Sell Coleman Cable Wire & Cord in Ohio

Ohio Wire Buyers buys reusable surplus Coleman Cable wire, portable cord and welding cable from businesses anywhere in Ohio. To sell Coleman Cable, send photos of the reel labels, jacket markings and available footage; we review the lot and provide questions or a written offer before arranging pickup. We buy usable product for resale and reuse, not scrap metal by the pound.

0100 FTIs Coleman Cable part of Southwire?

Southwire acquired Coleman Cable in 2014, as confirmed in Southwire's sustainability summary for that year. Coleman's January 2014 SEC filing identified its principal executive offices in Waukegan, Illinois. That is historical company information, not a claim about a current headquarters or an Ohio buying location.

For a surplus seller, the useful connection is between purchasing records and product identification. Keep a Coleman invoice or factory tag even when other paperwork uses Southwire's name. Our Southwire surplus wire page covers related inventory, while the wire brands we buy hub helps with mixed-manufacturer lots.

Coleman Cable, Southwire and the brand names and trademarks mentioned here belong to their respective owners. Ohio Wire Buyers is not affiliated with, endorsed by or an authorized dealer of the manufacturer. We buy surplus product that sellers already own.

0200 FTHow do you sell Coleman Cable surplus as reusable product?

Start by separating bulk wire from finished cord assemblies. A reel of portable cord, a coil of welding lead and a boxed consumer extension cord are different items, even if the paperwork names the same manufacturer. For Coleman extension-cord material, we consider sealed bulk reels only, not used household plug-in cords.

Identify industrial wire by its actual jacket designation rather than calling everything "Coleman cable." If your list includes booster cable, describe whether it is bulk conductor or a clamp-equipped assembly and send its label for review. Do not rename it welding cable because it bends easily or has red and black insulation.

Unused full reels, partial reels and useful cut lengths can be reviewed. Used material must still be reusable. For cord stock, our portable cord and SOOW buying guide explains the information that separates one construction from another.

0300 FTWhich portable cord markings matter most?

SOOW and SJOOW are not interchangeable descriptions. Southwire's ROYAL specifications identify SOOW as a 600-volt cord and SJOOW as a 300-volt cord. Both referenced constructions use stranded bare copper, EPDM insulation and a flexible CPE jacket, but matching materials do not erase the difference in cord rating.

Use the printed type, not jacket color, to organize a lot. The following details come from Southwire's product specifications and describe those products, not every older Coleman reel.

The table is an identification aid, not an installation or ampacity chart. A qualified electrician must determine whether a particular cord suits its proposed application.

0400 FTWhy does the welding cable listing change the description?

Southwire catalogs both a UL-listed ROYAL SUPER EXCELENE welding cable and a ROYAL EXCELENE non-UL welding cable. Its listed product specification identifies UL 1276 and Class M rope-stranded copper. The non-UL product has its own construction and application description; it should not be advertised as listed simply because another EXCELENE product is.

For Coleman welding cable surplus, photograph enough of the legend to capture the complete product name. Include the conductor size, any listing mark and the ends of existing leads. Our welding cable buying page covers reels and reusable lengths without treating them as ordinary building wire.

Do not assume a welding lead is DLO cable or suitable for every feeder application. Keep dissimilar leads in separate groups. The buyer needs the specific cable identity, not just an estimate of how much copper it contains.

0500 FTHow should older tags and partial reels be matched?

Photograph the tag while it is still attached to the reel, then photograph the cable wound on that reel. A loose label found nearby is useful background, but it does not establish the identity of an unmarked coil. Write down any disagreement between the label and jacket instead of choosing whichever description looks more valuable.

Southwire lists standard ROYAL SOOW and SJOOW packaging as 250-, 500- and 1,000-foot reels. Those are factory put-ups, not proof of the footage left after a job. Mark a reel as partial whenever cable has been taken off, even if the original tag remains intact.

If the cord has readable sequential footage markings, send photos and your measurement notes. Otherwise give an estimate and explain its basis. Our guide to measuring wire left on a reel helps keep remaining footage separate from original package length.

0600 FTWhat condition details affect a cord offer?

A factory label cannot compensate for damaged insulation or an uncertain history. Report jacket cuts, taped repairs, splices, flattened sections, exposed conductors and damage near clamps or lugs. Keep questionable pieces separate so they do not get counted as uninterrupted, unused stock.

Describe storage plainly: indoors or outdoors, original packaging or open coil, and any known water or chemical exposure. Do not wash off markings or strip insulation to demonstrate copper content. Clear photographs of the cut ends can show conductor material without destroying a usable length.

We review the material as a product lot, considering identity, continuous footage, condition, packaging and documentation. The surplus value versus scrap guide explains why product usability matters. If the wire is not reusable, we say so; a scrap metal recycler may then be the appropriate buyer.

0700 FTWhat should you send for a Coleman cord offer?

Send a whole-lot photo first, with each reel or coil distinguishable. Then supply close-ups of factory tags, complete jacket legends and accessible cut ends. For sealed bulk extension-cord reels, photograph the package seal and product label without opening the package solely for the request.

Build a footage list with one line per distinct item. Include the Coleman or Southwire stock number if readable, cord type, AWG, conductor count, color, quantity and continuous length. Label estimates as estimates and distinguish loose cut lengths from cable remaining on a reel. Our cable jacket print guide can help you transcribe an incomplete description.

Identify the selling business and provide proof of ownership, such as an invoice, purchase order, closeout paperwork or company letter. We verify the seller and ownership and keep a written purchase record. Include any restrictions on access or loading with the initial request.

0800 FTHow does pickup work for Ohio businesses?

We arrange pickup at the seller's Ohio jobsite, warehouse, plant or yard. Ohio Wire Buyers has no Ohio street address, office or yard and does not accept drop-offs. Tell us whether the cord is loose, palletized or on reels and what loading access is available.

After reviewing your information, we 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 the lot is collected. See how selling surplus wire works for the full sequence.
