Ancor Red 8 AWG Tinned Copper Wire 50-Foot

The Ancor Red 8 AWG Tinned Copper Wire is a 50-foot length of single conductor with Type 3 ultra-flexible stranding.

Fifty feet is the short length of 8 gauge, for one measured positive run rather than a spool to keep. The 250-foot version suits a boat with several circuits at this size. At 8 gauge the copper costs enough that buying to a measurement rather than to stock is worth the extra thought.

Eight gauge positives feed charging circuits, distribution runs, pumps and higher-current accessories. It is also the point where a circuit needs its own protection at the source rather than relying on whatever panel it feeds.

Tinned copper stranding protects the conductor from corrosion and electrolysis in damp and salty conditions. Ultra-flexible Type 3 construction routes the 8 AWG conductor through machinery spaces and electrical compartments while withstanding vibration and repeated flexing. Explore more marine wire.
