Ancor Safety Duplex Cable - 14/2 AWG - Red/Yellow - Flat - 1,000'

Ancor Safety Duplex Cable 14/2 AWG in red and yellow is engineered for critical marine electrical installations where reliability and safety standards are non-negotiable. This 1,000-foot spool delivers ABYC-compliant color coding with a white common jacket designed for straightforward installation and removal while maintaining superior abrasion resistance in harsh saltwater environments. The cable exceeds UL 1426 standards, the mandatory specification for marine safety duplex wiring on vessels.

The tinned copper stranding uses Type 3/Class K ultra-flexible construction, a critical feature in marine applications where vibration, thermal cycling, and constant moisture exposure degrade standard copper conductors. Tinned copper resists corrosion far more effectively than bare copper, extending cable life in bilge areas, engine compartments, and exposed deck runs. The flat profile reduces installation friction through tight cable runs and conduit, while the dual-conductor configuration with integrated common jacket simplifies wiring diagrams and reduces overall wire bundle diameter—a practical advantage on center consoles and cabin cruisers where space is limited.

This cable is specified for DC systems on fishing boats, cruising yachts, and commercial vessels requiring redundancy and fault tolerance. The 14 AWG gauge handles moderate current draws typical in navigation lighting circuits, bilge pumps, and auxiliary loads. A full 1,000-foot spool supports complete rewiring of mid-sized vessels or multiple smaller installations, eliminating the cost and waste of purchasing shorter spools for larger projects. Marine electricians and boat builders rely on Ancor's consistency and ABYC certification to pass survey and insurance inspections without rework.
