Southwire 411010502 Machine Tool Wire 18 Awg Yellow 500 Ft

Product Description

The SOUTHWIRE 411010502 is an 18 AWG stranded machine tool wire designed for internal wiring of machine tools, control panels, and industrial equipment. Constructed with a polyvinylchloride (PVC) insulation jacket, this wire measures 0.108 inches in outside diameter and is rated for temperatures from -4 degrees F up to 221 degrees F. The 16-strand construction provides flexibility for routing through tight enclosures and wire ways. Each spool contains 500 feet of wire in a high-visibility yellow jacket. Electricians and industrial maintenance technicians use this wire where a UL-listed, oil- and moisture-resistant conductor is required.

This wire is suited for use inside machine tool enclosures, automated equipment cabinets, and industrial control panels in both light and heavy manufacturing environments. The acid-resistant, moisture-resistant, and oil-resistant PVC insulation makes it appropriate for machine shop and factory floor installations where exposure to cutting fluids, coolants, and lubricants is common. The yellow color supports color-coded wiring schemes used in panel builds and equipment retrofits.

• Outside diameter of 0.108 inches for compact conduit and wire duct fill calculations
• Oil-resistant, acid-resistant, and moisture-resistant insulation for machine shop environments
• Listed to UL 1063 and CSA 22.2 No. 210 for use in machine tool wiring applications
• 500-foot spool in yellow for high-visibility color coding in control panels

Compatibility

Designed for internal wiring of machine tools and industrial control panels where UL 1063 and CSA 22.2 No. 210 listed 18 AWG machine tool wire is specified.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with the National Electrical Code (NEC) and any applicable local codes. De-energize and lock out all circuits before removing or installing wiring in control panels or machine enclosures. Do not exceed the rated maximum operating temperature of 221 degrees F or route the wire in environments outside its listed resistance ratings. Verify wire duct and conduit fill capacity using the published outside diameter before installation.
