Ribbon Cables

Ribbon Cables — New & Used

Ribbon cables (also known as flat ribbon cables) feature multiple parallel conductors in a flat, wide format, enabling compact wiring, mass termination and efficient signal routing. They are ideal for data, control, automation and electronics applications where space is tight and organization matters.

At Surplus Select, we stock a rotating inventory of new and used OEM ribbon cables and assemblies, covering standard pitch, high-density, high-flex, and custom configurations. Our surplus pricing supports machine builders, control panel manufacturers, and electronics integrators seeking reliable cable solutions without paying full catalog cost.

Price Match — We match any authorized distributor on identical in-stock parts, so you can source parts at surplus pricing with distributor-level assurance.

Trade-In Credit — Have quality new surplus items? Trade them in for store credit toward the parts you actually need.

Fast U.S. Shipping — Most orders ship same or next business day from our U.S. warehouse to keep your line running.

Find Your Ribbon Cable Fast (Search-First)

Search your part number (e.g., IDC ribbon cable 0.050″ pitch, flat ribbon assembly 26-way, rainbow ribbon cable 1.27 mm pitch).
No PN? Try specs like “flat ribbon cable 1.27mm pitch”, “high-flex ribbon cable 40 conductor”, or “custom ribbon cable assembly IDC connector”.
Need a specific configuration? Add details such as shielded, high-flex design, rainbow color-coded, or mass termination IDC to your search.

Applications & Use Cases

Control panels & automation systems: Use ribbon cables to route multiple signal and data lines cleanly inside enclosures, reducing wiring bulk and improving serviceability.
Machine electronics & instrumentation: Flat-ribbon cables simplify multi-conductor runs in compact spaces and enable mass termination for faster assembly.
OEM equipment & embedded systems: Ribbon cables are ideal for connecting boards, sensors and modules where consistent conductor pitch and organized layout matter.
Data & signal applications: Ribbon cables support parallel signal lines for computing, control, communications or measurement systems where space and layout are constrained.
MRO & retrofit projects: Quickly replace legacy ribbon-cable assemblies or upgrade existing wiring harnesses at surplus pricing to reduce cost and lead time.
