This item has a min order quantity of 6ft and a max of 500ft. The maximum amps for chassis wiring is also a conservative rating but is meant for wiring in air and not in a bundle.

18 awg thermostat wire sold by the foot continuous add the length desired in feet as your quantity and add to cart. For short lengths of wire such as is used in battery packs you should trade off the resistance and load with size weight and flexibility. The wire size chart below shows allowable ampacities of insulated conductors rated up to and including 2000 volts 60 c through 90 c 140 f through 194 f not more than three current carrying conductors in raceway cable or earth directly buried based on ambient air temperature of 30 c 86 f.
