Quality commitment
The cable of the exact section.
Since 1957 this motto defines our way of working. We produce conductors that exactly meet the agreed technical specifications in cross-section, electrical resistance and mechanical performance.
High-purity electrolytic copper
Annealed electrolytic copper cathode. Flexible multifilament with precision twist for maximum conductivity.
Double shielding
Aluminium foil plus tinned copper braid. Superior EMI/RFI attenuation across the full industrial frequency range.
In-house manufacturing and control
Complete production process at own plant. Dimensional, electrical and visual inspection on every spool before dispatch.
Inspection before every dispatch
The quality standard is not a final review step — it is integrated into every stage of the production process.
We process electrolytic copper cathode filaments by precision twisting, forming the exact nominal cross-section. In multifilament conductors, annealing is performed to maximise flexibility and conductivity.
Etapa 02
Dimensional and electrical inspection
Dimensional and electrical inspection of each formed strand. Verification of electrical resistance, cross-section and absence of surface defects before the insulation process.
Etapa 03
Insulation and sheath extrusion
Individual insulations and outer sheath applied in flame-retardant PVC by controlled extrusion. Available in up to 15 standard colours and special combinations. Minimum thickness compliance per IRAM standards.
Etapa 04
Stranding and shielding
Laying-up and stranding of the insulated conductors with controlled pitch. Application of aluminium screen and braided shield or drain wire according to each construction.
Etapa 05
Final testing and coiling
Dimensional, electrical and visual verification of each finished reel, dielectric strength test and final coiling for dispatch.
Why choose us
Precision as factory standard.
Specialised since 1957
Since 1957 we have manufactured electrical conductors. That specialisation translates into technical experience and product consistency.
Regulatory compliance
Each line is manufactured to the specifications and standards applicable to the product. See the technical documentation for each reference.
Direct technical advisory
In-house engineering team available for specification, electrical sizing and shielding selection based on the specific requirements of each installation.
Production flexibility
Dispatch in standard 100 m reels, custom spools or special batches. Service to distributors, integrators and end users nationwide.
Quality control at every stage
Every conductor leaving our plant undergoes dimensional, electrical and visual verification before dispatch. This is not an exception process — it is the way we have worked since day one.
Our technical team can advise on the right conductor selection, calculate cross-sections and evaluate shielding alternatives based on the specific requirements of your installation.
We have manufactured in Argentina since 1957 and supply electrical-material distributors, integrators and instrumentation houses across the country. Work with factory pricing, direct technical support and a catalogue of 243 referenced products with datasheets.

Cable selector
Which cable do you need?
Answer 4 simple questions about your application and we recommend the exact Conduplast cable for your project.
Indicative results. Calculations use IEC 60364, IRAM 2281 and IEC 60228 as references. The final cross-section must be verified considering installation type, grouping, temperature and other service conditions.
Educational visualization
What does shielding do?
On the plant floor, cables live next to motors, VFD drives and power lines that radiate electromagnetic interference. See how each shield protects the signal.

Signal typeInsulation
Educational representation to convey the concept — not a certified electromagnetic simulation. Real attenuation depends on frequency, installation and shield grounding.
Quality control built into the process: we verify critical manufacturing variables in-line and before every dispatch. Each stage is documented, measured and traceable.
