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

The Pacer 12/2 AWG Safety Duplex Cable in red and yellow is purpose-built for low-voltage marine electrical systems, delivering reliable power distribution across AC and DC circuits on vessels of all sizes. This 250-foot spool of duplex boat cable represents Pacer Group's commitment to domestic manufacturing and corrosion resistance in saltwater environments where standard copper conductors fail.

The cable features finely stranded, Type III tinned copper conductors that provide superior flexibility compared to solid-core alternatives, enabling routing through tight engine compartments and cabin runs without kinking or cracking. Tinned copper naturally resists corrosion in salt air and spray exposure, a critical advantage over bare copper in offshore and coastal applications. The PVC jacket maintains flexibility across temperature ranges typical in marine environments while protecting the conductors from UV degradation and mechanical abrasion during installation and use.

This cable suits both fish-house wiring and serious offshore builds—from auxiliary lighting circuits and bilge pump connections to thruster and accessory power runs. Weekend anglers upgrading factory navigation harnesses benefit from the dual-color insulation (red and yellow conductors) for clear polarity identification during installation, reducing the risk of reverse-polarity damage to sensitive electronics. The 250-foot spool provides ample length for single-engine boats and smaller center consoles without splicing, minimizing connection points that trap moisture and accelerate corrosion.

Built in the USA, this duplex boat cable meets the standards expected by professional marine electricians and serious boat builders who prioritize long-term reliability over generic wire purchased at big-box retailers. The 12 AWG gauge handles mid-range amperage loads common in auxiliary circuits where larger 10 AWG or 8 AWG cables would be overkill but standard 14 AWG or 16 AWG cannot safely carry the required current.
