This 8 AWG stranded building wire is for commercial and industrial electrical installers routing service, feeder, and branch-circuit conductors through conduit or cable trays. Its orange color helps support circuit identification during installation.
The 500 ft wire uses annealed, compressed-strand copper conductors with heat- and moisture-resistant PVC insulation and a nylon jacket. It is rated 600V and may be used as THHN in dry locations up to 90°C, THWN-2 in wet or dry locations up to 90°C, and MTW under the stated application conditions. The jacket is designed to allow installation without pulling lubricant.
Key Features:
- 8 AWG stranded conductor: Provides a flexible conductor format for routing building wire through conduit and cable trays.
- 500 ft length: Supplies an extended length of wire for electrical installation work.
- Orange insulation: Helps users visually identify the conductor during installation.
- PVC and nylon construction: Combines heat- and moisture-resistant insulation with a protective nylon jacket.
- THHN/THWN-2/MTW designations: Supports use in applicable dry, wet, and oil-exposure conditions within the stated temperature limits.
- Lubricant-free pulling capability: Can be installed without the need for pulling lubricant.
Choose this orange 8 AWG stranded wire for conduit or cable-tray installations requiring a 500 ft, 600V building-wire conductor with applicable THHN, THWN-2, or MTW use designations.
