10 AWG Silicone Wire Kit

I think this is the second time I have purchased this product. 🤔 Very nice quality. Super flexible. Individually tinned copper strands (less chance of corrosion). Some reviewers think this is aluminum because of the color. It is copper. You have to "sand" it to see the bronze color. Good product. 👍 XT90-s is easily and quickly soldered onto these with about a 200 or 300 watt iron in about 5 seconds.

Worked perfectly for the vintage Wizard battery charger restoration project I did.

This wire is very very flexible and easy to work with. Would buy it again.

This is probably among the better silicone wires I've used. It is tinned copper, as evident by two facts: the ends of the strands are red when cut, and it takes solder very easily. This is exactly what you want, as fine stranded bare copper would corrode too easily. The jacket is definitely a good quality high temp silicone, and is on the thicker side for silicone wire. I prefer this, as silicone jackets generally tear easily if they are too thin. The wire gauge is at least true to size. I haven't stripped and weighed it, but it fits snugly in my 10AWG crimp terminals. The only way this could possibly be made better is if the wire was made from 7 bunches of twisted strands, with the combined cable twisted the other direction. This improves flexibility and keeps strands together after stripping.

Positives: High thread count makes it exceptionally well suited for high power/high end audio. 10 Gauge cable is the maximum size for the binder posts on my high end amplifier and Infinity speakers. Extremely flexible, you could bend this far more than you should bend electrical wire of any type. (extreme bends and kinks break the conductors). Very easily stripped with an RG-59 stripping tool with few lost strands - if you're careful. Negatives: Comes only in specific lengths. I really needed 2 5ft cables, a 10ft and a 12ft cable. It would be far better if I could get this cable by the foot, or on a spool and cut the lengths myself. I had to move a speaker from its optimal position to accommodate the cable length. Splicing this cable would be a horrible idea - you would effectively lose the whole purpose of buying high thread count cable in the first place. Super fine threads makes stripping without cutting a few threads highly difficult. The red and black cables are separated - usually not a problem, but it does make them a bit easier to tangle. Not quite an equal replacement for my 80s vintage Monster™ cable. Even Monster cut the gauge of their cable in half since then. So I'd have to go with about 4 gauge cable to get an electrically equivalent match. This should not be a problem for anyone not a spoiled audiophile. Overall, I like it. The biggest problem is that it comes in exact lengths, which means you're either wasting a bunch or having to move things around to accommodate the cable. It's worth the $0.80/foot I paid for it. But I would have paid a full USD per foot for them to cut me 40 feet of each color.

I used this wire for the connection between my MPPT solar controller and battery in my RV. The insulation is thick and robust, that should endure the vibration induced wear while on the road. I expect it to be the perfect product for this application.

ThIS wire is VERY floppy (good quality) it's fine strand, silver in color and untwisted, but it twists nicely when you need it to to easily fit into the end of a 10 gauge connector. The insulation is thick and very pliable, like it's made of high grade silicone or something so it's not very resistenant to tears on sharp corners, but once installed, probably impervious to heat, chemicals and even dirt under the hood of a car.

good wire for test light
