This 8 AWG (10 mm²) silicone wire is designed for high-current applications that demand flexibility and heat resistance. The conductor is made from fine-strand tinned copper (0.08 mm diameter strands), twisted together to reduce signal interference and resist oxidation. The silicone insulation remains flexible across a wide temperature range from −60°C to +200°C.

Each pack includes 1 metre of red wire and 1 metre of black wire, suitable for power distribution in robotics, ESCs, motors, RC vehicles, and other demanding applications.

Key Features

  • High Current Capacity – Rated for up to 190 A
  • Wide Temperature Range – −60°C to +200°C operating range
  • Silicone Insulation – Flexible, durable, and resistant to acids and alkalis
  • Tinned Copper Conductor – Fine 0.08 mm strands resist oxidation and improve flexibility
  • High Voltage Rating – AC 600 V / DC 3 kV

Specifications

  • Wire Gauge – 8 AWG (10 mm²)
  • Rated Voltage – AC 600 V / DC 3 kV
  • Rated Current – 190 A
  • Temperature Range – −60°C to +200°C
  • Conductor – 0.08 mm diameter tinned copper strands
  • Insulation – Silicone
  • Length – 1 m per colour

Ideal For

  • Robotics and robotic arms
  • ESC and motor wiring
  • RC aircraft, cars, and boats
  • High-current power distribution

Package Contents

  • 1× Red silicone wire (1 m)
  • 1× Black silicone wire (1 m)
Note: Do not exceed the rated voltage or operate outside the −60°C to +200°C temperature range, as this may reduce wire lifespan.

Jargon buster

Plain-language definitions for the technical terms used above.

AWG
American Wire Gauge is a numbering system for wire thickness, where a lower number means a thicker wire. The AWG rating matters because thicker wire can usually carry more current with less voltage drop and heating.
DC
DC means direct current, where electricity flows in one constant direction, as supplied by batteries, USB ports and many plug-pack power supplies. When a product specifies DC, it runs from a DC supply rather than mains AC, so you need to provide the correct voltage and polarity.
ESC
An ESC, or electronic speed controller, is a driver commonly used to control brushless motors, especially in drones and RC vehicles. Compared with a field-oriented control driver, a conventional ESC typically offers less smooth low-speed control and less precise torque or position control.
