Ancor Marine Grade Primary Wire

ANCOR Marine Grade™ wire is manufactured from tinned copper stranding for maximum protection against corrosion
and electrolysis. Ultra flexible (Type 3) stranding resists fatigue due to vibration and flexing.

ANCOR’s proprietary premium vinyl insulation stays flexible even in extreme cold and resists salt water, battery acid,
oil, gasoline and ultra-violet radiation. Exclusive insulation is rated at 600 volts, 105° C dry and 75° C wet, and is
resistant to heat and abrasion.

Defender supplies a full line of ANCOR Marine Grade™ primary (single conductor) wire in sizes from 18 AWG to 10 AWG, all in ABYC recommended colors, and in standard lengths from 8 foot mini-spools to 1,000 foot bulk spools.

Exceeds all UL 1426, US Coast Guard Charterboat (CFR Title 46) and ABYC standards.
ABYC Recommends: “Conductors shall be at least 16 AWG. Exception: 18 AWG conductors may be used if included with other conductors in a sheath and do not extend more than 30 inches outside the sheath.”
