Product Details
Features
-
Rated for a Defined Run
True 8 AWG construction and the listed 80A maximum load at 20 feet give installers source-provided guidance for planning marine or car audio power and ground wiring.
-
Route Through Tight Spaces
The flexible, heavy-duty marine-grade PVC jacket suits confined paths through boats and vehicles, helping installers fit the cable where routing room is limited.
-
Protection for Harsh Environments
The jacket resists moisture, saltwater, heat, cold, oil, gas, and fumes, for wiring applications exposed to the conditions named in the product description.
-
Connection Point Comes Prepared
Red heat shrink and a ring terminal with washer are preinstalled, so the 5-foot cable arrives with a prepared connection point for installation.
-
Finishing Hardware in the Box
Four red heat shrinks, four red ferrules, eight zip ties, and a 5/16-inch grounding bolt and nut are included to handle cable finishing and grounding.

Support
The M8G5R is a 5-foot power/ground wire for marine and car audio installations. It is also suitable for solar panel wiring. Check your installation’s cable gauge, length, and connection requirements before choosing it.
The M8G5R uses 100% tinned oxygen-free copper (OFC), not copper-clad aluminum. Its true 8 AWG conductor contains 735 strands of 0.12 mm wire. The tin coating helps protect the copper against corrosion in marine environments.
Yes. The M8G5R has a tinned copper conductor and a heavy-duty marine-grade PVC jacket that resists moisture, saltwater, heat, cold, oil, gas, and fumes. Protect the connections separately; the jacket’s resistance does not make an exposed terminal waterproof.
The cable is 5 feet long, with a listed outer diameter of 6.5 mm. Its flexible PVC jacket helps with routing through confined areas in boats and vehicles. Red mesh split loom covers the cable, so allow room for that covering when planning your route.
Yes. A ring terminal with washer and red heat shrink are preinstalled. The package also includes a 5/16-inch grounding bolt and nut, a rust-resistant washer, four red heat shrinks, four red ferrules, and eight zip ties.
Yes. The included ferrules and additional heat shrinks can be used when finishing a cut end. Cutting removes the prepared connection if you cut off the terminal end, so plan your cut and confirm the new termination matches your equipment.
