Sea-Dog 16 AWG Red Marine Wire, 25 ft Tinned Copper
Sea-Dog 16 AWG Red Marine Wire, 25 ft Tinned Copper — Product description
Need a length of reliable primary wire for a new accessory run? This is Sea-Dog's 16 AWG red primary wire on a handy 25 foot spool. It's stranded tinned copper under PVC insulation, so it stands up to the damp and salt you get on the water. And it's UL and ABYC certified, so it's ready for proper marine DC work.
Sometimes a project just needs a clean length of wire, and this is a good one to keep on the shelf. It's Sea-Dog's 16 AWG primary wire in red, wound on a 25 foot spool. The conductor is stranded tinned copper, which is the detail that matters most on a boat. Bare copper corrodes and turns green in salty, humid air. The tin coating holds that off, so your connections stay solid for years.
The PVC insulation is bright red, which makes life easier down the road. You can trace a circuit, sort out polarity, and keep your wiring tidy without guessing. It's a good fit for running 12-volt accessories, lighting, and other smaller circuits where 16 gauge is the right size.
And it's UL and ABYC certified, so it meets the standards surveyors and insurers look for on marine DC wiring. Twenty-five feet is enough for most single runs with a little left over. Grab a spool in each color you use and you'll always have the right wire when you need it.
