Also Known As:

18/5 SOOW Portable Power Cable, 18/5 SOOW, 18/5 SOOW Power Cord, 18/5 SOOW Portable Cord, 18/5 SOOW Service Cord, 18/5 SOOW Service Cable, 18/5 SOOW Cord, 18/5 SOOW Cable, 18/5 SOOW Wire, 18/5 SOOW Flexible Power Cable, 18/5 SO Cord.

Applications:

SOOW is water and weather-resistant service electric cable with an oil-resistant jacket and insulation. It is a reputable low-cost portable power electrical cable that offers superior resistance to abrasion. The cable famously stays intact when in contact with a hot surface, making it perfect for tough applications, including compressors, industrial machinery, push-button remotes, industrial control systems, and water purification systems. SO is commonly used in mills, marinas, mines, ,industrial, commercial and residential facilities. The cable exhibits premium flexibility and is resistant to chemicals, oil, water, sunlight, and air. The voltage rating is set at 600. The temperature range is -40°C to 90°C. SOOW maintains its flexibility in both hot and cold applications.
