Product Description
Ancor's safety duplex cable is a top - notch choice for marine applications. It has red and yellow Marine Grade primary conductors, color - coded to ABYC standards, encased in a white common jacket. This jacket is easy to remove and offers excellent abrasion resistance. These cables surpass UL 1426 standards and are crafted from high - quality ultra - flexible (Type 3/Class K) tinned copper stranding. This provides great protection against corrosion, electrolysis, and resists fatigue from vibration and flexing. The premium vinyl insulation is rated at 600V, 105°C in dry conditions and 75°C in wet conditions. It stays flexible even in extreme cold (-40°F/C) and can withstand salt water, battery acid, oil, gasoline, heat, abrasion, and ultra - violet radiation. However, be aware that this product can expose you to chemicals like di(2 - ethylhexyl)phthalate (dehp), known in California to cause cancer, birth defects, or other reproductive harm.

Using this Ancor safety duplex cable is straightforward. First, check the cable's length of 100 feet to make sure it fits your needs. When installing, carefully remove the white common jacket to access the red and yellow conductors. Remember to follow the ABYC color - coding standards for proper connections. Since the cable is highly flexible, it can be bent easily around corners or through tight spaces. When in use, keep in mind that the cable can handle various tough conditions, like salt water and battery acid. But it's important to avoid exposing it to sharp objects that could damage the insulation. For maintenance, you can wipe the cable with a clean, dry cloth regularly. If it gets dirty, use a mild soap and water solution, then dry it thoroughly. Also, make sure to keep it away from excessive heat sources. Due to the potential exposure to harmful chemicals, always wear gloves when handling the cable and wash your hands after use.
