ANCOR 8 AWG Tinned Copper Wire Primary Cable – Black – 100 ft.

The ANCOR 8 AWG tinned copper wire primary cable is engineered with premium features for exceptional performance, particularly in marine and other challenging environments. This heavy-duty primary cable is ideal for those who require a high-quality, durable, and reliable wiring solution.

• Corrosion Resistance: The tinned copper strands provide maximum protection against corrosion and electrolysis, which can degrade wire over time, especially in marine environments.
• Ultra-Flexible Stranding: With ultra-flexible (Type 3) stranding, the wire resists fatigue due to vibration and constant flexing, ensuring longevity and continuous performance.
• Premium Vinyl Insulation: Pliable and robust, the insulation resists the harsh effects of saltwater, battery acid, oil, gasoline, and UV radiation, preserving the integrity of the wire.
• Extreme Temperature Durability: Effectively operates in extreme temperatures with a rating of 105°C in dry conditions and 75°C in wet conditions, suited for diverse and demanding climates.
• Rated at 600 Volts: The insulation is also rated at 600V, suitable for higher voltage marine electrical systems and other applications where this voltage rating is required.
• Heat and Abrasion Resistance: The wire's insulation is designed to be heat and abrasion-resistant, adding an extra layer of protection to withstand the wear and tear of operation.
• Compliance with Safety Standards: This battery cable meets and exceeds important safety standards such as UL 1426, US Coast Guard Charter boat (CFR Title 46), and ABYC, providing peace of mind regarding its safety and reliability.

These features collectively make the ANCOR 8 AWG tinned copper wire primary cable a superior choice for practical applications requiring durability, flexibility, and adherence to stringent safety credentials, especially for maritime and harsh environmental use.
