{"product_id":"sea-dog-2-awg-red-battery-cable-25-ft-tinned-copper","title":"Sea-Dog 2 AWG Red Tinned Battery Cable, 25 ft Spool","description":"\u003cp class=\"nvn-hero\"\u003eThis is Sea-Dog's 2 AWG battery cable in red, sold as a 25 foot spool of tinned copper. It's built for the positive side of your marine power runs, from the house bank to a windlass, inverter, or main bus. UL and ABYC certified, and it ships without terminals so you can crimp it to your own layout.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"nvn-description\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen you're running heavy DC current on a boat, the cable matters as much as the battery behind it. Sea-Dog's 2 AWG battery cable gives you a 25 foot spool of tinned copper in red, sized for the big loads: house banks, windlasses, inverters, bow thrusters, and main battery-to-bus runs. Two gauge is serious copper, so it handles the amperage without heating up or dropping voltage over a long run.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe tinning is the part that earns its keep out on the water. Every strand is coated in tin, which is what keeps salt air and bilge moisture from creeping into the copper and turning your connection green. Bare copper corrodes from the cut end inward and slowly chokes off current. Tinned copper doesn't. That's why UL and ABYC both want to see it in a marine electrical system, and it's why this cable carries both certifications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRed marks it as the positive conductor, so your color coding stays clean and the next person who opens the panel can read the run at a glance. It ships without terminals, which is exactly what you want for a real install. You measure the run, cut to length, and crimp on the lug that fits your stud. No fighting a pre-made cable that's six inches too short or a foot too long.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA 25 foot spool covers most single runs with cable to spare, or splits into a few shorter jumps between batteries and switches. Pair it with the black 2 AWG for the negative side and you've got a matched pair for a full power circuit. Whether you're rewiring a battery bank, adding an inverter, or just replacing a tired old cable that's gone stiff and corroded, this is the wire that does it right. Buy a little more than you think you need. It's always easier to trim a run than to splice one, and leftover 2 gauge never goes to waste on a boat.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"nvn-features\"\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e2 AWG gauge: heavy copper sized for high-amperage DC runs like windlasses, inverters, and house banks\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTinned copper conductor: every strand coated in tin to resist salt-air and bilge corrosion for the life of the boat\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e25 foot spool: enough length for most single runs or several shorter battery-to-switch jumps\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRed jacket marks the positive conductor, keeping your DC color coding clear at the panel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eUL and ABYC certified: meets marine electrical standards for safety and construction\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSold without terminals so you can cut to length and crimp the exact lug your install needs\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 Sea-Dog 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\u003eWhat gauge is this cable?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eIt's 2 AWG (2 gauge), a heavy conductor sized for high-current DC runs like house banks, windlasses, and inverters.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003c\/details\u003e\n  \u003cdetails\u003e\n    \u003csummary\u003eIs the copper tinned?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eYes.
