Insulation factor is an average estimate for typical cable construction. Actual conductor ratio varies by manufacturer and grade. For precise analysis, use the cable datasheet or weigh-and-strip test.
What these tools cover
Free, no account needed. Figures are for estimation — settlement terms follow your contract.
Trade Calc3 tools
Conversions and cost math for cross-border trade: units, currencies, landed cost. Mismatched units are the most common source of quotation disputes — a metric ton and a short ton differ by 10%, a troy ounce and an avoirdupois ounce by 9.7%.
Settlement6 tools
The settlement step — pricing material by grade, weight and recovery: scrap valuation, concentrate TC/RC deductions, conductor content in cable, dismantling yields. Standard industry math, but the formulas usually live buried in individual contracts.
Reference3 tools
Look-up references: HS commodity codes and import compliance, copper and aluminium alloy grades, metal densities, shipment tracking.
