SO 12/6 12 Gauge Portable and Power Cable
Our SO 12/6 12 gauge cable is part of our Power Cables & Portable Cord line of Wire & Cable. SO 12/6 is composed of 6 bare copper conductors with a 65/30 stranding, an ethylene propylene diene monomer rubber (EPDM) insulation, and a chlorinated polyethylene (CPE) jacket. These cables are rated for a voltage of 600 volts, an amperage of 16 amps, have a temperature range of -40° to 90°, and weighs approximately 376 lbs/MFT. SO 12/6 is resistant to water, abrasion, oils, solvents, weather, sunlight, and ozone while offering excellent flexibility and being UL listed and CSA certifies for both indoor and outdoor use. This SO cord is designed for hard usage with portable tools, industrial and processing equipment, construction equipment, cranes and hoists, track systems, battery chargers, portable appliances, small motors, and associated machinery, and also electrical equipment that is exposed to oils, solvents, flame, or moisture. It also features good tensile strength, elongation, and aging characteristics.
