Custom Pcb: wholesale price
A typical US business buyer pays a median of $1.20 per unit at small order quantities, falling to $0.35 at volume, on a typical 15-day lead time. These medians come from published supplier pricing. Treat them as a starting point for a sourcing conversation rather than a binding quote.
Median price by order quantity
| Order size | Median /unit |
|---|---|
| 500–999 units | $1.20 |
| 1,000–4,999 units | $0.90 |
| 5,000–9,999 units | $0.70 |
| 10,000–24,999 units | $0.55 |
| 25,000–99,999 units | $0.45 |
| 100,000+ units | $0.35 |
What moves the price
For custom pcb, the drivers are material, thickness, finish, hole pattern, load rating, tray compatibility, microvia count, laser drill size — the same item can land at either end of the band depending on how those are specified.
Published supplier pricing for bare custom PCBs is usually shown as broad volume bands rather than exact tiered quotes, but real supplier guides consistently show sharp declines as quantity rises, with 1,000+ and 10,000+ unit mass-production pricing dropping to sub-$1 for simple 2-layer boards and low single digits for 4-layer boards. The main cost drivers are layer count, material/finish, board complexity, and specialty constructions such as HDI or rigid-flex; added assembly, testing, and import/shipping can move landed cost materially. Realistic supplier routes are offshore contract manufacturers and quote platforms such as PCB fabricators and marketplace listings, while US-facing buyers often use import-equivalent landed pricing from China-based suppliers or domestic brokers.
