Wire and cable is routinely coated through a crosshead die using many of the materials you described (assuming you're speaking of FPVC and not RPVC). There are a number of suppliers or you can pick up an extruder anywhere and add a conventional crosshead die from a number of suppliers....

What is the minimum thickness you are targeting for?

If electrical application, the thickness is ependant on the "spark test".

What is the coaed wire used for?
