Premium Wire Manufacturing & Cable Assembly Services
Polar Wire has been a leader in premium wire manufacturing and cable assembly services for over 35 years. Founded in Anchorage, Alaska, we specialize in industrial-grade wire and custom cable assemblies designed for extreme environments, from Alaska's North Slope to Antarctica. Our Arctic Ultraflex Blue and Arctic Superflex Blue wire lines are engineered to withstand temperatures ranging from -55C to 105C (-67F to 221F), utilizing 100% copper conductors for unmatched durability. With manufacturing and distribution facilities in the USA, we serve the general public, government agencies, OEMs, and fleet accounts. Our team combines over 200 years of industry experience to deliver precision-engineered solutions, including SAE J1283 jumpstart cables, industrial power cords, and marine-grade wiring. We maintain rigorous quality control through advanced assembly processes and thousands of in-stock fittings, ensuring reliability for automotive, military, renewable energy, and heavy machinery applications.As a family-owned business, we prioritize long-term partnerships over transactions, offering private-label manufacturing and bulk ordering options. Our commitment to innovation is reflected in our patented designs and multi-listed flexible wire certifications, including UL, THHW, and MTW standards. With free shipping on orders over $150, an online store for rapid prototyping, and technical support available Monday-Friday, we provide scalable solutions for any project size. Our facilities handle everything from one-off custom cables to large-scale production runs, backed by a 100% satisfaction guarantee.

Services
Wire Manufacturing
We manufacture premium industrial-grade wire engineered for extreme environments. Our Arctic Ultraflex Blue and Superflex Blue lines use 100% copper conductors to withstand temperatures from -55C to 105C. Available in single/double conductor configurations, trailer cables, and multi-listed flexible options, our products meet UL, SAE, and MTW standards for automotive, marine, and industrial applications.
Cable Assembly
Our custom cable assemblies combine Arctic-grade wire with precision engineering for harsh conditions. Using advanced crimping and termination techniques, we create solutions for heavy machinery, renewable energy systems, and military equipment. Options include SAE J1283 jumpstart cables, industrial power cords, and OEM-specific configurations with rapid prototyping capabilities.
Wholesale Products
We supply wire-related components including solderless terminals, heat shrink tubing, and mechanical lugs in bulk quantities. Our inventory supports volume discounts for distributors and OEMs, with private-label manufacturing options. Products meet industry standards for conductivity and corrosion resistance in extreme environments.
Private Label Production
We offer private-label wire and cable solutions for OEMs requiring branded components. Services include custom wire configurations, color coding, and print legends with minimum order quantities. Our production facilities handle both prototype development and large-scale manufacturing for industrial and commercial applications.
SAE J1283 Cables
Our SAE J1283 jumpstart cables feature high-ampacity connectors compatible with Caterpillar, Komatsu, and CASE equipment. Constructed with Arctic Superflex Blue wire and zinc-coated copper terminals, these cables deliver 500A continuous/2000A intermittent power while resisting corrosion in extreme temperatures.
