Southwire 411090508 Machine Tool Wire 8 Awg 500 Ft Black

Product Description

The SOUTHWIRE 411090508 is an 8 AWG machine tool wire designed for internal wiring of machine tools, control panels, and industrial equipment. Built with 19-strand construction for added flexibility, this wire features polyvinylchloride (PVC) insulation rated for a maximum operating temperature of 221 degrees F and a minimum of -22 degrees F. The 0.244-inch outer diameter and stranded core make it well-suited for routing through tight wire ways and conduit runs inside industrial enclosures. Installation is performed by licensed electricians and qualified machine tool maintenance technicians working to NEC and applicable equipment wiring standards.

This wire is appropriate for use in industrial and commercial settings where machine tool wiring, control panel wiring, and apparatus wiring are required. The PVC insulation provides resistance to acids, moisture, and oil — conditions commonly encountered in machine shop and manufacturing floor environments. Supplied in a 500-foot length, it suits both large panel builds and multi-drop runs without mid-run splices.

Key Features

• 8 AWG, 19-strand construction for flexibility in tight routing applications
• PVC insulation rated from -22 degrees F to 221 degrees F
• Acid-resistant, moisture-resistant, and oil-resistant insulation
• 0.244-inch outside diameter for predictable conduit fill calculations
• Meets CSA 22.2 No. 210 and UL 1063 and Subject 758 standards
• 500-foot continuous length minimizes splicing on long runs

Compatibility

Designed for internal wiring of machine tools, control enclosures, and industrial apparatus where UL 1063-rated wire is specified.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with applicable NEC requirements and equipment manufacturer wiring diagrams. De-energize and lock out the equipment before beginning any wiring work. Verify conduit fill calculations using the 0.244-inch outer diameter before pulling wire. Do not exceed the rated maximum operating temperature of the insulation when routing near heat sources inside enclosures.
