Sea Dog 4 AWG Black Tinned Copper Battery Cable, 500 Foot Spool
Sea Dog 4 AWG Black Tinned Copper Battery Cable, 500 Foot Spool — Product description
Sea Dog's 4-gauge black battery cable ships on a full 500-foot spool of tinned copper, ready to cut to length for any high-current DC run on your boat. It's UL listed and ABYC certified, and it comes without terminals so you crimp exactly the ends your install needs.
When you're wiring a boat, the last thing you want is bargain automotive cable that corrodes the first time bilge water finds it. This is 4 AWG tinned copper, and that tinning is what keeps the strands bright and conductive years down the road. Salt air is brutal on bare copper. Tinned wire shrugs it off.
You get a full 500-foot spool of black cable, marked as the negative side of your DC system. It ships without terminals, so you cut each run to length and crimp the exact lugs your job calls for. Good for battery banks, bus bars, windlass feeds, inverter runs, any high-current DC circuit where 4 gauge is the right size.
It's UL listed and ABYC certified, so it meets the standards a surveyor or insurance inspector wants to see. Rig it once, do it right, and don't think about it again.
