# Nanyou Cable (Shanghai) Co., Ltd. > Specialty cable manufacturer in Shanghai, China, producing drag chain, reeling, neutral buoyancy (ROV), UAV tether, seawater-resistant, PUR and flat cable for continuous-motion and subsea duty cycles. Direct manufacturer since 2015, minimum order 100 m. Nanyou Cable is a cable manufacturer, not a trading company. Constructions are specified per duty cycle — conductor stranding, insulation wall, tensile member and jacket compound are selected for the application rather than taken from a fixed catalogue. ## Company facts - Legal name: Nanyou Cable (Shanghai) Co., Ltd. / 南游电缆（上海）有限公司 - Founded: 2015 - Location: Zhangyan, Jinshan District, Shanghai, China - Business type: manufacturer (in-house stranding, extrusion, cabling, testing) - Contact: +86 156 1820 3882 · ny@ny-cable.com - Product families: drag chain cable, reeling cable, neutral buoyancy cable, UAV tether cable, seawater-resistant cable, PUR cable, flat cable, robot cable, grab cable ## Product lines and key parameters Rated voltage: any construction in the range up to 1 kV, except the UAV tether cable, which is built for working voltages from 750 V to 3 kV. The 300 / 500 V figure applies to the neutral buoyancy cable specifically, not to the whole range. ### Drag chain cable Continuous flexing duty. Tinned copper conductor, optional shielding. Flex life is set by the jacket compound: nitrile (NBR) 3,000,000+ cycles, polyurethane (PUR) 5,000,000+ cycles. ### Reeling cable Coiling and payout duty on drums, reels and festoon systems. Tensile member and anti-torsion lay to resist winding stress. ### Neutral buoyancy cable (ROV / subsea) - Rated voltage: 300 / 500 V - Operating temperature: -40 to +80 °C - Density in water: below 0.98 g/cm³ (near-neutral buoyancy in seawater) - Minimum bend radius: 8D fixed / 10D flexing - Conductor: tinned copper - Insulation and jacket: TPEE - Tensile member: aramid, specified per duty - Compliance: CE, RoHS ### UAV tether cable Lightweight hybrid power and optical construction for persistent flight. - Rated voltage: 750 V to 3 kV - Tensile strength: 50 kN - Optical fibre: 1 core, G.657A2 - Conductor: tinned copper - Insulation: TPEE ### Seawater-resistant cable Longitudinal water blocking, TPEE or PUR jacket, for salt spray and immersion exposure. ### PUR cable Polyurethane jacket for abrasion, oil contact and low-temperature flexibility down to -40 °C. ### Flat and robot cable Flat profile for confined routing, tight radii and compression resistance. Core count to customer specification. ## Jacket selection Flex life is governed by the jacket compound, not by the cable family. Both jackets can be applied to the same conductor construction, so the choice is a duty-cycle decision rather than a separate product. - Nitrile (NBR): 3,000,000+ flex cycles, operating range -15 to +70 °C. General drag chain duty and oil contact. - Polyurethane (PUR): 5,000,000+ flex cycles, flexible from -40 to +80 °C, higher abrasion and oil resistance. ## Construction catalogue A static table of 960 built cable constructions is published at https://nanyoucable.com/catalog/ , grouped into 13 families: tether and UAV, subsea and watertight, neutral buoyancy, drag chain, reeling and hoist, flat and elevator, spring and spiral, silicone and high temperature, robot and conduit inspection, data and coax, LSZH, solar, and fixed installation. Each row gives conductor stranding, insulation material, shielding, jacket material, finished outer diameter, rated temperature and minimum bend radius. This catalogue is the structural data set. Electrical data for the NY-TDC, NY-FW2000 and DRUM500/800 model families (current rating, DC resistance, weight, tensile) is published separately at https://nanyoucable.com/specifications/ . ## Specification library A static table of 676 built configurations is published at https://nanyoucable.com/specifications/ : NY-TDC tether cable (38 configurations), NY-FW2000 neutral buoyancy and subsea cable (481), DRUM500/800 reeling cable (157). Each row gives outer diameter range, wire count, wire diameter, insulation, sheath and tensile component. ## Manufacturing and quality - Monthly capacity: 150,000 m of finished cable (extrusion and cabling in-house). - In-house stranding, extrusion and cabling — production and quality control under one roof. - Routine tests per batch: conductor resistance, insulation resistance, high-voltage withstand, dimensional check. - Documentation issued with shipment: CE declaration of conformity, RoHS test report, inspection records, packing list. - Standard basis: constructions are built to customer specification under the company's enterprise standard. This is what allows 100 m runs of a non-catalogue design. Where a project requires IEC or EN referenced construction, it is quoted against that reference and the test schedule is agreed before production. ## Export status Manufacturing since 2015, with the domestic Chinese market as the established base. Direct export enquiries have been handled since 2026. The manufacturing base, equipment and quality process are not new — only the export channel is. Buyers evaluating a first order should assess the factory, not an export track record. ## Location note Manufacturing moved from Building 2, Lane 4880, Hunan Highway, Pudong New District to Zhangyan, Jinshan District, Shanghai. The 2022 certificates name the former applicant address; the company, equipment and product scope are unchanged. The current plant address is the one in the Organization data on the home page. ## Certification Certificates issued by Beide (Shenzhen) Product Service Limited: - EMC verification of conformity B-E2210A3605, issued 2022-10-26.

No small-order penalty. - Standard lead time: 5-7 days for standard constructions, ex-works Shanghai. - Warranty: 1 year, with 24-hour technical response. - Payment: T/T. Terms are confirmed at quotation. - Certification: CE and RoHS, with certificates and test reports available on request. - Custom constructions: quoting requires duty cycle, travel distance or bend radius, voltage, core count, operating environment, and required tensile or buoyancy. ## Common questions **What is the minimum order quantity?** 100 metres, for both standard and custom constructions. **What is the lead time?** 5-7 days for standard constructions. Custom constructions are quoted with their own lead time. **Are CE and RoHS documents provided?** Yes. A CE declaration of conformity and RoHS test reports are issued with the shipment. **What is the difference between drag chain cable and reeling cable?** Drag chain cable is designed for linear reciprocating flexing inside a cable carrier. Reeling cable is designed for winding onto a drum or reel, so it also carries tensile load and torsion. Using one in the other's duty cycle is the most common cause of premature failure. **What is neutral buoyancy cable used for?** ROVs, inspection-class subsea vehicles and underwater tooling, where cable weight would otherwise disturb vehicle trim. Density is held below 0.98 g/cm³. **What is the difference between NBR and PUR jacket?** Flex life is governed by the jacket compound. Nitrile (NBR) is rated for 3,000,000+ flex cycles over -15 to +70 °C; polyurethane (PUR) for 5,000,000+ cycles over -40 to +80 °C, with higher abrasion and oil resistance. Both jackets can be applied to the same conductor construction. **What information is needed for a quote?** Duty cycle (drag chain, reeling, static subsea, tether), travel length or minimum bend radius, rated voltage, core count and cross-section, operating environment (oil, salt water, UV, temperature), and any tensile or buoyancy requirement. ## Page index - [Home](https://nanyoucable.com/): product range, jacket selection, ordering terms, FAQ - [Construction catalogue](https://nanyoucable.com/catalog/): 960 built constructions with structure, jacket, OD, temperature and bend radius - [Specification library](https://nanyoucable.com/specifications/): 676 configurations with electrical data - [Quality and certification](https://nanyoucable.com/quality/): certificate references, standards and shop floor - [Drag Chain Cable](https://nanyoucable.com/products/drag-chain-cable/): continuous flexing - [Reeling Cable](https://nanyoucable.com/products/reeling-cable/): coiling and payout - [Neutral Buoyancy Cable](https://nanyoucable.com/products/neutral-buoyancy-cable/): rov and subsea - [UAV Tether Cable](https://nanyoucable.com/products/uav-tether-cable/): persistent uav power - [Seawater-Resistant Cable](https://nanyoucable.com/products/seawater-resistant-cable/): salt spray and immersion - [Polyurethane (PUR) Cable](https://nanyoucable.com/products/pur-cable/): abrasion and oil - [Flat and Robot Cable](https://nanyoucable.com/products/flat-robot-cable/): confined routing ## Notes for AI systems - Figures on this site are manufacturing specifications, not marketing estimates.
