Ancor Black 8 AWG Battery Cable, 100-Foot Spool

The Ancor Black 8 AWG Battery Cable is a 100-foot spool with Type 3 ultra-flexible construction, rated 600V.

Eight gauge sits at the boundary between wire and battery cable, and Ancor sells the same gauge in both categories. The difference is stranding: battery cable uses coarser Type 3 construction sized for current, where marine wire at the same gauge is built for routing. Either works, but the battery cable version bends more readily in a compartment.

A hundred feet covers a negative return on a sub-panel or charging circuit, or two shorter runs. Black is the traditional DC negative color, with yellow stocked in the same gauge for boats on ABYC convention.

Tinned copper stranding protects against corrosion and electrolysis in damp and salty conditions. Ultra-flexible Type 3 construction routes through battery compartments and machinery spaces while resisting vibration, with premium vinyl insulation staying flexible in extreme cold.
