Pacer Performance's 18 AWG marine-grade primary wire is engineered to withstand the most demanding marine environments. This 100-foot spool of green wire is manufactured in the USA using premium materials and construction techniques that exceed industry standards for marine electrical systems.
Premium Tinned Copper Construction:
Built with Type III Class K tinned copper conductors per ASTM B172 specifications, this wire delivers exceptional flexibility and superior corrosion resistance. The tinning process protects the copper strands from oxidation and saltwater exposure, significantly extending the service life of your electrical installations. The finely stranded construction is so flexible you can tie it in a knot without compromising its electrical or mechanical properties.
Durable PVC Insulation:
The tinned copper conductor is protected by a proprietary flexible PVC jacket rated for temperatures from -20°C to 105°C. This insulation provides outstanding resistance to acid, alkali, abrasion, flame, gasoline, oil, and moisture—essential protection for harsh marine conditions. The color-coded green jacket simplifies wire identification during installation and troubleshooting.
