You get 100 feet on the spool, a 600-volt PVC jacket, and the corrosion resistance that keeps a boat's DC runs alive for years.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"nvn-description\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf you've ever chased a voltage drop on an old boat, you already know why marine wire matters. Pacer's 10 AWG orange primary wire is the stuff you run when you want a circuit to still read clean five seasons from now. It's built in the USA from Type III annealed, finely stranded tinned copper to ASTM B172 Class K, which is a long way of saying it's flexible and it fights corrosion. Pacer has been making wire and cable stateside for a long time, and it shows in how this stuff handles.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThat tinned copper is the whole point. Bare copper turns green where saltwater and humidity get at it, and green copper means resistance, and resistance means heat and lost voltage. The tin coating on every strand keeps the conductor bright, so your connections stay tight and your gear gets the volts it's rated for. You can tie this wire in a knot and it won't crack the jacket. That flexibility makes it easy to route through tight rigging tubes and around bulkheads.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe insulation is a color-coded PVC jacket rated from -20 degrees C to 105 degrees C and good for 600 volts. It shrugs off acid, alkali, abrasion, gasoline, oil, flame, and moisture, which covers just about everything you'll find in a bilge or an engine bay. The orange color makes it easy to trace when you're standing behind the panel a year from now trying to remember what feeds what.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTen gauge is a common size for accessory runs, pumps, lighting circuits, and mid-load DC gear. This is single-conductor primary wire, sold as one 100-foot spool, so it's a smart buy when you're rewiring a section or stocking the shop for the season. It meets and exceeds UL 1426, USCG 33 CFR Part 183, and ABYC E-11.14, so it'll pass a survey and it'll keep your insurance happy. Do it once, do it right.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"nvn-features\"\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e10 AWG single-conductor primary wire on a 100-foot spool, sold as an individual roll\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eType III annealed finely stranded tinned copper to ASTM B172 Class K for flexibility and corrosion resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTinned copper strands resist the green corrosion that causes voltage drop in a marine environment\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eColor-coded PVC insulation rated -20 to 105 degrees C and 600 volts\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eJacket resists acid, alkali, abrasion, gasoline, oil, flame, and moisture\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFlexible enough to tie in a knot without cracking the insulation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMeets and exceeds UL 1426 BC-5W2, USCG 33 CFR Part 183, and ABYC E-11.14\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBuilt in the USA\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"nvn-trust\"\u003e\n  \u003ch2\u003eWhy Buy from NVN Marine\u003c\/h2\u003e\n  \u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eAuthorized Pacer Group reseller, full manufacturer warranty\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eNMEA member and ABYC certified, advice from real boat techs\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eSame-day shipping before 3 PM ET on in-stock items\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eNY headquarters and Fort Lauderdale flagship retail store\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"nvn-faq\"\u003e\n  \u003cdetails\u003e\n    \u003csummary\u003eIs this real marine-grade wire or automotive primary wire?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eIt's genuine marine primary wire.
