About Guitar Pedal Patch Cables

Patch cables are the short cables that link pedals on a pedalboard or units in a rack. This category covers flat pancake patch cables, standard right-angle patch cables with metal plugs, and solderless kits that let players cut cables to the exact length they need. Most use 1/4" (6.35 mm) TS plugs, and a TRS pancake version suits expression pedals and TRS MIDI; the typical finished cable has a 24 AWG oxygen-free copper (OFC) conductor and a PVC jacket about 5.0 mm in diameter, in lengths from 15 cm (6 in) to 60 cm (24 in).

Patch cables are often sold in packs, so customization covers pack size and packaging as well as the cable: jacket color, plug finish, a laser-engraved logo, insert cards, tins or boxes, and barcode labels. Samples of stock designs are available before you order; MOQ is low.
