2-50 - Southwire Royal Excelene #2 Welding Cable, 50ft Pre-Cut

Premium Power Transmission for Industrial Welding

In the demanding world of industrial fabrication and maintenance, the quality of your welding leads directly impacts arc stability and overall weld quality. The Southwire Royal Excelene #2 Welding Cable stands as a benchmark for performance and durability. Engineered to meet the rigorous standards of professional welders, this 50-foot pre-cut length of cable provides a reliable connection between your power source and electrode holder or ground clamp. Unlike inferior cables that stiffen in cold environments or crack under stress, the Royal Excelene line is constructed with the end-user's challenging environment in mind.

At the core of this cable is high-grade copper stranding, optimized to conduct current efficiently with minimal voltage drop. This ensures that the amperage you set at the machine is the amperage delivered to the arc, providing consistent heat and penetration. The #2 AWG size is perfectly suited for applications requiring up to 200 amps, making it an excellent choice for light to medium-duty stick welding, MIG setups, and general shop use. The 600-volt rating provides an ample safety margin for standard welding equipment, ensuring compliance with safety regulations and peace of mind during operation.

Superior Jacket Technology

The defining feature of the Southwire Royal Excelene cable is its advanced jacket construction. Encased in a specially formulated EPDM (Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer) neoprene jacket, this cable offers exceptional resistance to the hazards found in every metalworking shop. It is impervious to oil and grease, preventing the swelling and degradation common in cheaper PVC cables. Furthermore, it resists chemicals, water, and solvents, ensuring longevity even in harsh chemical plants or outdoor construction sites. The jacket is also designed to withstand ozone and weather exposure, preventing the dry-rot and cracking that often plagues cables stored outdoors.

Flexibility and Handling

One of the most critical factors for welder fatigue is cable flexibility. A stiff cable fights the welder's wrist movement, leading to strain and inconsistent welds. This Southwire cable retains its flexibility even in extreme cold weather, allowing for easy manipulation and coiling at the end of the shift. The sequential foot markings on the jacket are a thoughtful addition, allowing inventory managers and operators to easily measure usage or remaining length without unspooling the entire coil. Whether used for replacing worn-out leads on a fleet of machines or outfitting a new mobile welding rig, this cable delivers professional-grade performance.
