XRDS -RF 14 AWG Marine Wire 100FT, 2-Conductor (Red & Black) Duplex Marine Grade Boat Cable, High-Strand Tinned Copper Electrical Wire, Flexible PVC Jacket for Boats, RVs, Trailers & Solar

I recently picked up this 14 gauge 2 conductor marine wire for my boat, and I have to say, I’m pretty impressed so far. It’s true to size and compares well with some of the bigger brands out there. The tin coating on the conductors looks solid—no signs of flaking or peeling, which is a good sign for durability. The jacket around the conductors feels like a step up from regular building wire, much more robust. I didn’t measure it exactly, but it seems pretty close to the advertised 25 feet. When it arrived, it was nicely coiled, making it super easy to unspool without any tangles. I’m using this wire in the engine compartment of my saltwater boat. While it won't be directly exposed to sunlight, it will face heat, salt, oils, and grease, so I’ll definitely keep an eye on how it holds up. I plan to update this review down the line once I have more experience with it, but for now, I'm satisfied with my purchase.

As you can see in my pictures, this wire is well tinned copper core wire. The red and black insulation comes off cleanly and easily with strippers. The white protective sheath is a bit more difficult to remove but it does the job nicely and is easy to pull through spaces smoothly. It is clearly printed with size and length. This seems a lot like the Ancor wire I've used previously. It crimps well with marine crimped on connectors. It also solders well, drawing in the solder easily. I appreciate the value this wore represents, it's a good deal cheaper than other options and seems excellent. I'll update if any issues come up.

Great product
