Designed for the toughest environments, the red 4/0 AWG battery cable offers exceptional performance, particularly in marine applications. Built with tinned copper stranding, it ensures excellent durability with its enhanced protection against corrosion and electrolysis. The construction of the battery cable showcases a high degree of flexibility, with Type 3 stranding that combats fatigue from vibration and flexing, which is particularly advantageous on moving vessels.
The inclusion of Ancor's proprietary premium vinyl insulation is a standout feature that maintains its flexibility in extreme cold conditions and boasts an impressive resistance to a variety of potentially damaging substances, such as salt water, battery acid, oil, gasoline, and ultra-violet radiation. The resilience of the insulation is further supported by its 600V rating and ability to endure high temperatures — up to 105°C in dry conditions and 75°C when exposed to moisture. Additionally, it offers protection against heat and abrasion, reinforcing its overall durability.
Adhering to rigorous safety and performance guidelines, this battery cable not only meets but exceeds all UL 1426, US Coast Guard Charter boat regulations (CFR Title 46), and ABYC standards. Its compliance with these standards assures users of its quality and reliability, which are essential in marine settings where safety is of paramount importance.
