What is 500 MCM Welding Cable?
500 MCM Welding Cable is made from stranded bundles of copper wire tightly packed and insulated. The wire stranding gives the cable more flexibility and resistance to wear, while the insulation (typically EPDM or Neoprene rubber) adds additional protection against the harsh environments found in welding applications and is more flexible than PVC or other rubber coatings.
Also Known As: Battery Cable, 500MCM Welding Lead, Temporary Power Cable, 500MCM Flexible Cable, 600 Volt Cable, #500MCM Copper Cable, 500MCM Welders Lead, Hurricane Cable, etc.

500 MCM Welding Cable Applications
500 MCM Welding Cable often used in demanding applications, welding cable is a secondary voltage-resistance cable for welding tools or as a power cable that is attached to generators and industrial machinery. For example, electric arc-welding tools typically rely on two separate cables for operation; one that acts as the primary power source for the device while the other supplies a secondary power source. While welding cable may not power the generator, it is required for the electrode.
Welding cables are durable and flexible and are a popular choice for entertainment or stage lighting cables, lighting and sound systems, and communication vans. They can also function as battery cables for cars, inverter cables, and as a more cost-effective alternative to pendant (or reeling) cable on hoists and cranes.
