Ancor White Triplex Cable - 16/3 AWG - Flat - 1,000'

The Ancor White Triplex Cable – 16/3 AWG – Flat – 1,000' is the backbone of any serious marine electrical system, delivering reliable power distribution across your vessel's deck, cabin, and console. Built to meet and exceed UL Boat Cable standards, this heavy-duty marine cable is engineered for the demanding conditions anglers and boaters face: salt spray, UV exposure, vibration, and constant flexing from engine operation and rough water. Whether you're wiring a center console, commercial fishing vessel, or liveaboard cruiser, this bulk spool eliminates the need for multiple shorter runs and reduces connection points that can fail.

The triplex configuration—three insulated conductors in a single flat jacket—simplifies routing through tight hull spaces and along gunwales without the bulk of individual cables. Its ultra-flexible Type 3/Class K stranding resists fatigue caused by engine vibration and the constant movement that comes with riding swells, meaning your connections stay intact season after season. The white outer jacket is marine-grade, engineered for easy removal and repair while providing superior resistance to UV degradation and fuel or oil contamination—critical when working in engine rooms or near fuel lines. At 16 AWG, this cable handles the power demands of navigation lights, bilge pumps, trim and tilt systems, and auxiliary circuits on vessels up to 40 feet without voltage drop concerns.

Professional captains, marine electricians, and DIY boat builders rely on Ancor cable because it eliminates guesswork during rewiring projects, system upgrades, or restoration work. The 1,000-foot spool is ideal for larger vessels or when you're planning multiple circuits and want consistent, proven quality throughout. Installation is straightforward—route the flat profile along existing cable runs, use marine-grade connectors rated for 16 AWG, and secure every 18 inches with non-corrosive clamps. This cable pairs seamlessly with Ancor terminals, breakers, and fuses, ensuring your entire electrical backbone meets Coast Guard and ABYC standards for safety and longevity on the water.
