Description
Product Overview
The 18 AWG copper‑clad aluminum (CCA) wire from PUDKLE delivers the electrical performance of solid copper while remaining lighter and more flexible. Each roll contains a red and black conductor, both coated with a high‑quality PVC jacket that is flame‑retardant, anti‑aging, and resistant to acids, alkalis, and moisture. The wire is rated for low‑voltage DC applications up to 24 V, making it ideal for automotive audio systems, LED lighting, and remote‑control hobby projects. With a total length of 100 feet per roll, users have ample material to cut to exact lengths, reducing waste and simplifying installation.
Technical specifications include a 2‑conductor configuration, 18 AWG gauge (0.82 mm²), and a flexible PVC insulation rated for temperatures from -20 °C to 80 °C. The CCA core provides a conductivity comparable to pure copper, while the aluminum base reduces overall weight, easing handling and routing in tight spaces. The red and black color coding simplifies polarity identification, and the printed markings along the wire help verify length and gauge during installation.

Usage
Designed for 12‑24 V low‑voltage systems, this wire excels in automotive speaker wiring, subwoofer connections, and LED strip lighting. Car enthusiasts can use it to upgrade audio systems, ensuring clean signal transmission without adding unnecessary bulk. Hobbyists building RC cars or drones benefit from the wire’s flexibility and durability, allowing tight bends around chassis components while maintaining reliable power delivery.
In home and commercial settings, the cable is suitable for under‑cabinet lighting, signage, and low‑voltage power distribution. Its weather‑resistant PVC jacket makes it safe for outdoor installations such as garden lighting, patio LED strips, and temporary event wiring. The wire’s easy‑strip nature speeds up project timelines, and the clear color coding reduces wiring errors, making it a favorite among DIY electricians and professional installers alike.

FAQ
What is the difference between CCA and solid copper wire?
CCA (copper‑clad aluminum) combines an aluminum core with a thin copper coating, delivering similar conductivity to solid copper while being lighter and more affordable. It is ideal for low‑voltage applications where weight and cost are considerations.
Can this wire be used outdoors?
Yes. The PVC jacket is flame‑retardant and resistant to moisture, acids, and alkalis, making the wire suitable for outdoor lighting, garden LED strips, and other exposed low‑voltage installations.
Is the wire compatible with 24 V LED strips?
Absolutely. The wire is rated for up to 24 V DC, providing reliable power delivery for LED strips, automotive lighting, and other 12‑24 V devices without overheating.
How easy is it to strip the insulation?
The PVC insulation is designed to be easy to strip with standard wire strippers. Users can quickly remove the jacket without damaging the underlying CCA conductors, speeding up installation.
What warranty does PUDKLE offer?
PUDKLE provides a one‑year limited warranty covering manufacturing defects. If you encounter any issues, contact our support team for a replacement or refund, ensuring peace of mind with every purchase.
