RS PRO Black 16 mm² Flexible BK Series Hook Up Wire 5 AWG 126/0.4 mm Strands 25 m PVC Insulation 600V 70°C 516-8016

RS PRO 516-8016 represents a premium quality Black 16 mm² Flexible BK Series Hook Up Wire designed for versatile electrical control applications. This wire utilizes annealed copper as the conductor material, composed of 126 strands each 0.4 mm in diameter, which affords excellent flexibility and conductivity. Insulated with polyvinyl chloride (PVC), the cable is flame retardant, offering enhanced safety and durability in various environments while rated for 600 volts and capable of operating between -15°C and 70°C.

The 25-meter length is supplied on reels, making it convenient for efficient deployment in industrial electrical systems, including control cabinets, relay panels, motor starters, and instrumentation wiring. RS PRO’s Flexible BK cable subtype meets BS 6231 standards, providing reliability and compliance for critical electrical installations. The wire's 9 mm outside diameter balances flexibility with mechanical protection, ensuring ease of routing within machinery or switchgear assemblies.

Applications extend across industrial electrical installations, process control systems, small electronic devices, and metering panels, supporting high performance and longevity. Its flame retardant PVC jacket offers resilience against heat and mechanical stress, while the high strand count conductor supports repetitive movement and bending without compromising electrical integrity.

The cable's 16 mm² cross-sectional area delivers robust current capacity suitable for demanding control circuits. Annealed copper conductor with 126 strands improves electrical conductivity and mechanical flexibility. Black PVC jacket provides insulation, flame retardance, and abrasion resistance.

Rated voltage of 600 V and maximum operating temperature of 70°C enables use in diverse industrial environments. Compliance with BS 6231 ensures compatibility with standard control wiring requirements. The 25-meter length on reel facilitates efficient cable handling and installation.

Versatile use in switchgear, instrumentation, motor starters, and control panels.
