4AWG Welding Cable
What is 4AWG Welding Cable？
4AWG Welding Cable conductor material is stranded bare copper. The insulation material is made of ethylene propylene diene monomer rubber (EPDM) or neoprene, providing excellent heat resistance, to abrasion and mechanical force. The color is black, but other colors are available for specific coding needs. Rated voltage 600 volts. Operating temperature range: generally from -50 °C a +105 °C.
Also know as: battery cable, gauge welding wire 4, temporary power cord, cable flexible calibre 4, cable 600 volts, copper wire no. 4, cable for welders gauge 4, hurricane cable, etc.

What are the main applications of welding cable?
4AWG Welding Wire are mainly used to connect secondary circuits (welding) of AC and DC welding machines, particularly for stationary welders with long cables. With its nominal capacity of 600 volts, welding cables can also serve as portable power cables. Can be used as a replacement for battery cables, especially for starting and winching applications, but it is essential to secure them correctly to avoid any abrasion against the vehicle body.
