Ancor 109010 Tinned Primary Wire 10AWG ,100' Yellow
The Ancor 109010 Tinned Primary Wire is a high-quality electrical wire designed for various marine and automotive applications. It is a 10AWG (American Wire Gauge) wire, indicating its thickness and current-carrying capacity. The wire is constructed with tinned copper, which means the copper strands are coated with a thin layer of tin to improve corrosion resistance and solderability.
This particular product comes in a 100-foot length and has a yellow color jacket, making it easily identifiable for specific purposes or installations. The yellow color can also help in distinguishing different circuits or systems in a wiring setup.
The 10AWG size of the wire makes it suitable for medium to high current-carrying applications. It can handle a considerable amount of electrical load and is commonly used for tasks such as powering marine electronics, automotive accessories, lighting systems, and other electrical components.
The tinned copper construction ensures excellent electrical conductivity and minimizes the risk of oxidation or corrosion, which is especially important in marine environments where exposure to moisture and saltwater can be prevalent.
Overall, the Ancor 109010 Tinned Primary Wire in 10AWG with a 100-foot length and yellow jacket offers durability, reliability, and versatility for various electrical projects in marine settings.

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.
