Ancor Safety Duplex Cable - 12/2 AWG - Red/Yellow - Flat - 250'

The Ancor Safety Duplex Cable – 12/2 AWG in red and yellow is a marine-grade electrical cable built for reliable power distribution on boats of all sizes. This 250-foot spool delivers the abrasion resistance and flexibility demanded by saltwater environments, with color-coded conductors that meet ABYC (American Boat and Yacht Council) standards for safe, code-compliant installations.

Construction-grade tinned copper stranding (Type 3/Class K ultra-flexible) resists corrosion in harsh marine conditions while the white common jacket provides excellent abrasion protection and clean, easy removal during repairs or upgrades. The cable exceeds UL 1426 electrical standards, ensuring it meets or surpasses safety and performance benchmarks for marine wiring systems. The flat profile allows for neat routing through tight spaces without excess bulk, making installation cleaner on crowded engine compartments and electrical runs.

This duplex cable serves weekend fishermen running basic accessory circuits as well as serious offshore anglers managing complex electrical systems for fish finders, radar, auto-pilots, and high-draw battery chargers. The 12/2 AWG gauge handles moderate current loads on boats ranging from center consoles to mid-size cruisers. A 250-foot bulk spool provides economy for larger installations or multiple vessels, eliminating the waste and cost of buying pre-cut lengths.

Ancor is recognized throughout the marine industry for wire and cable engineered specifically for saltwater exposure. This cable's ABYC-rated color coding (red for positive, yellow for ground/negative) removes guesswork during installation and troubleshooting, reducing the risk of reverse polarity and electrical faults that can damage electronics or create safety hazards aboard.
