Ancor Safety Duplex Cable - 16/2 - 100'

The Ancor Safety Duplex Cable – 16/2 – 100' is a marine-grade electrical cable engineered to UL Boat Cable standards for reliable power distribution on vessels of all sizes. Built with ultra-flexible Type 3/Class K stranding, this duplex cable resists vibration fatigue and repeated flexing—critical performance factors in the harsh marine environment where constant motion stresses electrical connections. The 100-foot length provides the reach needed for comprehensive wiring installations on mid-sized boats and larger craft without requiring multiple spliced runs.

The cable's outer jacket prioritizes both ease of installation and durability. Removal of the jacket for termination is straightforward, while the insulation itself delivers proven abrasion resistance in tight bilge spaces and along deck edges. Ancor's proprietary premium vinyl insulation maintains flexibility even in cold-water climates—a practical advantage when winterizing boats in northern regions or operating in offshore conditions. The formulation resists salt water corrosion, battery acid, oil, gasoline, and ultraviolet radiation, eliminating the rapid degradation that catches many boaters off-guard when using inferior cable in these environments.

This 16/2 duplex configuration suits auxiliary circuits, bilge pumps, navigation lighting, and battery interconnects where two conductors are required. Weekend anglers upgrading aging wiring and professional charter operators performing system overhauls both rely on Ancor's track record of field longevity. The 100-foot spool eliminates short-length waste while allowing flexibility in routing and installation without premature splice points that introduce failure risk.

Marine electrical systems demand cable that performs under continuous exposure to moisture, salt spray, and temperature swings. Ancor cable has established itself as the specification choice for original equipment manufacturers and retrofit installations alike, making it the logical choice when reliability matters more than upfront cost savings.
