Welding Cable
- Use For: Welding
- 600V AC: Bend and Stay
600V AC/DC: Flexible - Temperature Range: -55° to 220° F
- Insulation: EPDM Rubber
This cable withstands abrasion, oil, and the rough conditions found in welding applications. It’s flame rated VW-1 to meet requirements for vertical flame testing.
Class K cable is for general purpose welding applications. It bends and stays in the position that you bend it.
Class M cable is more flexible and durable than Class K cable.
Flame-Resistant Welding Cable
- Use For: Outdoors, Welding
- Flexible
- Temperature Range: -55° to 190° F
- Insulation: Polyethylene Plastic
This cable meets Mine Safety and Health Administration (MSHA) standards for flame resistance. It’s also flame rated VW-1 to meet requirements for preventing the spread of flames, based on a timed test with vertically suspended material. The insulation resists abrasion and chemicals.
Battery Wire
Connect batteries in vehicles and generators.
Strand count is the number of strands followed by the size of the individual strand.
Wire with a PVC plastic insulation resists fuel and oil.
Wire with an EPDM rubber insulation is ultra-flexible for use in applications that require tight turns. The insulation resists abrasion and oil.
Wire with a cross-linked polyolefin (XLPO) insulation is ultra-flexible and withstands high heat, making it suitable for applications such as vehicle engine wiring.
SAE wire meets standards for low-voltage wiring in vehicle electrical systems.
Ready-to-Use Welding Cable with Male Connector and Ground Clamp
The male quick-action connector on these cables gives your welding set-up greater versatility by allowing quick changes.
Class K cables are good for general welding applications.
Class M cables are often used in pipe welding because they’re more flexible and durable than class K cables.
