Send the printed legend, conductor material and size, voltage class and the footage on the reel tag. If the tag is gone, say so — photographs of the jacket print usually resolve it.

01
MTW and TFFN wire we review
What this family covers and what identifies it.
MTW is machine tool wire, a flexible 600 V thermoplastic wire used inside panels and equipment. TFFN is a nylon-jacketed fixture wire in 18 and 16 AWG. Both appear in many colours and in small spools.
Texas panel shops, integrators and plant maintenance stores hold the surplus. The lots are small individually and meaningful in aggregate.
02
Specification checklist
The facts that decide how a lot is evaluated.
- Voltage600 V for MTW; 300 V for TFFN in most constructions.
- Sizes18, 16, 14, 12 and 10 AWG.
- Packaging500 and 1,000 foot spools, often part used.
Send what the reel says. A printed legend and a reel tag are stronger evidence than a description written from memory. If a detail is unknown, mark it unknown rather than guessing.

How a lot is evaluated
Construction, condition, documentation, quantity and logistics.
Send the gauge, colour, spool count and approximate remaining length per spool. This is a family where the total quantity matters more than any single spool.
Mixed colour sets are normal and are reviewed as a lot. Sorting by gauge first, then colour, makes the review fast and the offer defensible.
Safety first. Never cut, strip, disconnect or move energised cable to prepare a sale. De-energising and proving dead is work for qualified personnel under the site's electrical safety programme.

MTW and TFFN wire questions
Answered for sellers, not for search engines.
Do you buy part-used spools?
Yes, in quantity. Individual short spools are usually handled as a mixed lot.
Does colour matter?
It affects usability rather than construction. A full colour set is more useful to a panel shop than the same footage in one colour.
Is TFFN the same as MTW?
No. TFFN is a fixture wire with a lower voltage rating; MTW is rated for machine tool use at 600 V.
