Description
- Two 8 AWG conductors, red and black, in one flat jacket
- Tinned copper, UL 1426 boat cable, 600 V
- Sold by the foot: order the full run as one length
Duplex keeps positive and negative together in one jacket, so a long pull to a bow motor plug or a dash panel is one cable, not two. Order the one-way length from battery to bow; both wires ride in the jacket, so you don’t double it. 8 AWG is fine for shorter or lighter runs, but many motor makers ask for 6 AWG on longer boats, so check your motor’s manual or our trolling motor battery guide before you buy. Run the numbers in our wire gauge calculator too. Use 8 AWG lugs at each end.
Good fit if: Your motor’s manual allows 8 AWG for your run length, and you want both leads in one jacket.
Not the pick if: Your manual asks for 6 AWG. Many motor makers do on longer boats.
