Pacer Performance W12/2DC-500 12/2 AWG Marine Duplex Wire 500 ft Red/Black

The Pacer Performance W12/2DC-500 is a 500-foot spool of 12/2 AWG duplex boat cable designed for low-voltage DC circuits and AC applications aboard marine vessels. Manufactured in-house in Sarasota, FL, this two-conductor duplex wire is built to meet the demanding requirements of the marine environment.

Construction begins with Type III annealed finely stranded tinned copper conductors (ASTM B172 Class K), which deliver superior flexibility and excellent resistance to corrosion — critical in saltwater and high-humidity environments. Each conductor is wrapped in a color-coded flexible PVC insulation rated from -20°C to 105°C, making polarity identification quick and reliable.

The extruded outer PVC jacket is applied in a single-pass process that fully fills the voids between conductors, leaving no gaps for moisture or air to accumulate. Interior wires receive a talcum powder coating to allow fast, clean jacket removal during installation. The result is a cable that is highly flexible, moisture-resistant, and easy to work with in the field.
