MADE IN USA by American Wire And Cable company
Pennies per foot at your door
We have here for your project a primary marine grade, tinned copper wire. This wire exceeds the marine specifications of UL Standard 1426 BC-5W2 It is rated for 600V at 105º C and 1000V at 90º C wet. Finely stranded tinned type 3 tin plated for corrosion resistance. With a durable and super flexible PVC insulative jacket for easy installation and clean stripping. Excellent choice for Industrial machinery, boat, rv, automotive, solar, robotics and many other applications where vibration might accrue
There are many factors that affect ratings
Factors that affect amperage ratings of wires also include application factors. Humidity temperature and abrasion.
According to American Boat and Yacht council # 12 wire of this grade can be used for 50v and lower for the following amperage's. This also matches National Electrical code recommendations. Applying to single conductors in free air jacketed with 105C allowing a 30C ambient

WE DO NOT BOAST OXYGEN FREE COPPERThe term OFC (oxygen-free copper) has become abused and is used synonymously with solid or all-copper conductors. In actuality, OFC is a type of solid copper. When molten copper is cast and drawn into a conductor, the process to make an OFC conductor reduces the oxygen content of the wire. If all is done perfectly, the copper-oxygen content is around 42 parts per million (PPM) vs. a conventional copper with content that is roughly six times that amount. But there are no regulated specifications for the use of the term OFC. So most sales boasting this quality have no assurance of such. Or any required oxygen content to meet to do so. Most companies in the industry use the acronym “OFC” for a piece of wire that is not copper-clad aluminum (CCA)
