USB C Cable for 87w Adaptor: Is The Cable Standard?

[Christopher11]

Hey guys, for my 2018 MB Pro 15, the cable on my backup adapter (I always have at least two, I prefer three) has gone bad. The connector is loose, falling off. I just need to buy the USB C cable to replace, not the entire adapter. Is that cable standard? Will this do?

That should be OK.
Good price there for 3 cables...

Okay awesome. Thank you. This one says it is for MB Pro so I'll go with this. Thanks again for chiming in.

Those will work if you want to charge max 60W instead of 87W...

Oh. They don't work for my charger?

Will this one work? It says 100w If not please link one that will. Thank you.

As long as the cable is specced for 100 or 240w it should work.

Usb C cables require a marker chip by spec to allow more than 60w charging, this is standard.

Thank you. I'll order that one then. Incredibly it says it's coming today (not sure how). I'm having charging issues. But my battery cycle count is 349, and battery health says Normal. Is it likely then the brick or the cable? Thanks for any replies.
