    Description

    Introducing our multi-rated, multi-purpose, flexible, real copper battery cable. This wire has multiple approvals for use in many electrical installation making it a very unique cable. From the pure electrolytic copper stranding to the durable yet flexible insulation, this cable has been designed to impress.
    Our UL listed battery cable carries ratings allowing it to be used as marine battery cable listed as UL1426 Boat Cable which maintains a BC-5W2 temperature rating of 105C dry and 75C wet. This wire can be continuously submerged in water with no issues. This fine battery cable exceeds the requirements of ABYC and the USCG (US Coast Guard) for installation on boats.
    The copper conductor features stranding which is tin plated to resist corrosion. Flexible Type III, Class K stranding is designed to absorb vibration found in motive environments such as automotive and marine thus protecting the cable from premature failure.
    FEATURES:
    Meets all applicable boat wiring regulations from ABYC and US Cost Guard for use on boats
    Rated 600 Volts Max with 105C Dry and 75C Wet (BC-5W2) temperature ratings and will remain flexible in extreme cold weather
