2-Pin Red and Black PVC/Silicone Extension Cable - Tinned Copper Domestic Wire (28AWG, 26AWG, 24AWG, 22AWG, 20AWG, 18AWG, 16AWG)
This 2-pin extension cable with red and black color-coded wires is perfect for a wide variety of applications that require reliable, insulated, and flexible wiring. The cable features tinned copper conductors for enhanced conductivity and corrosion resistance. It is commonly used in electrical systems, automotive wiring, DIY projects, LED lighting, and battery-powered devices.
The wires are available in various gauges (28AWG, 26AWG, 24AWG, 22AWG, 20AWG, 18AWG, 16AWG) to meet different current and voltage needs, allowing for flexibility depending on the specific power requirements of your project. The red and black color coding ensures clear identification of the positive and negative terminals, making installation and troubleshooting easier.
Key Features:
-
Color-Coded Wires: The red wire is for the positive ( + ) terminal, and the black wire is for the negative ( - ) terminal. This color coding ensures ease of installation and prevents confusion during wiring.
-
High-Quality Tinned Copper: The wire is made from tinned copper, which is more resistant to corrosion than bare copper. This ensures long-term reliability and improved conductivity, especially in humid or outdoor environments.
-
Flexible PVC or Silicone Insulation:
- PVC Insulation: Provides good protection against abrasions, oils, and other general hazards. It is suitable for most general-purpose applications.
- Silicone Insulation: Offers greater flexibility, high heat resistance, and is ideal for applications that may involve high temperatures or need to withstand bending and flexing.
-
Available in Multiple AWG Sizes: Available in various wire gauges to meet your specific power and flexibility needs:
- 28 AWG – For low power, low current applications (typically used for control signals, small sensors, or signal wiring).
- 26 AWG – Suitable for low-power connections, such as small LEDs or light-duty applications.
- 24 AWG – Works well for low-current connections, such as light electronics and communication devices.
- 22 AWG – A popular size for medium-current wiring in automotive or consumer electronics.
- 20 AWG – Ideal for medium to high-current applications in automotive wiring, LED systems, or battery-powered devices.
- 18 AWG – Used for higher current loads in motor wiring, power distribution, or heavy-duty automotive systems.
- 16 AWG – For high-current applications, such as 12V DC systems, motors, or power equipment.
-
Voltage Rating: Typically rated for use in low-voltage circuits, typically around 12V - 24V DC, depending on the wire gauge and insulation type.
-
Stranded Conductors: Stranded copper offers greater flexibility compared to solid wire, making it ideal for applications where the cable needs to bend or move, such as in automotive, marine, or robotics wiring.
-
Easy Identification: Red and black color coding ensures proper polarity when connecting components, reducing the risk of wiring errors.
-
Suitable for Indoor and Outdoor Use: Whether you're using it for indoor DIY projects or outdoor automotive or marine applications, the wire’s insulation offers enough protection for both environments.
