Ancor 111510 Marine Grade Tinned Copper Battery Cable – 8 AWG Red

The Ancor 111510 Marine Grade Battery Cable is a premium 8 AWG tinned copper cable engineered to deliver reliable power transmission in marine, RV, automotive, off-grid, and industrial electrical systems. Manufactured with ultra-flexible Type 3 tinned copper stranding, this cable provides maximum protection against corrosion, electrolysis, vibration, and fatigue, ensuring dependable performance in harsh marine environments.

The red marine-grade PVC insulation clearly identifies positive (+) power circuits while providing excellent resistance to salt water, battery acid, oil, gasoline, UV exposure, abrasion, and extreme temperatures. Its flexible construction makes installation easier in confined spaces and around tight bends.

Designed to meet or exceed UL 1426, ABYC, and U.S. Coast Guard (CFR Title 46) standards, the Ancor 111510 is trusted by professional boat builders, marine electricians, and technicians for critical DC power applications.

Ideal for battery banks, battery switches, inverters, chargers, windlasses, trolling motors, DC distribution panels, and marine electrical installations.

TECH tip

Wire Flexibility Explained

Wire flexibility is influenced by two major factors: Wire strand sized jacket hardness.

Wire strand size has the largest impact on overall wire flexibility.

As individual wire strand size decreases, wire flexibility increases. For boat cable, UL 1426 requires at least 19 individual strands for cables 16 AWG and larger, Ancor wire uses type 3 stranding which consists of  individual 30 AWG (0.010”) strands, regardless of the wire gauge .Ancor’s 16 AWG wire, consists of 26 individual strands, while the 4/0 AWG wire consists of 2,109 individual strands

jacket hardness is most commonly measured by durometer, with lower measurements reflecting a more flexible material. Ancor wire measures 7 points lower than competitive product (on a scale of 1-100), resulting in a more flexible product.
