Southwire Southwire Armorlite 68580021 Mc Cable, 12 Awg, 2-conductor, Copper, 25 Ft.

The Southwire Armorlite 68580021 is an armored MC (metal-clad) cable designed for branch, feeder, and service power distribution in commercial, industrial, institutional, and multi-residential construction. Pre-installed solid and stranded copper conductors are protected within an overall metallic interlocked armor that shields against physical damage, moisture, and harsh environmental conditions. This cable simplifies installations in concealed or exposed runs, in raceways, fished through walls, or embedded in plaster.

The reverse-wound design aids ease of pulling and installation. At 45% lighter than steel MC cable, Armorlite cuts weight without sacrificing durability or protection. The flame-retardant, heat-resistant PVC insulation with oil- and gasoline-resistant nylon jacket ensures reliable performance in demanding environments, and the THHN/THWN rating supports the high temperatures typical of commercial and industrial work.

Features and Benefits

• Metallic Interlocked Armor: Provides robust protection against physical damage and moisture while offering excellent shielding for sensitive power and control circuits.
• 45% Lighter Than Steel: Reduces handling effort without compromising durability or protection.
• Reverse-Wound Design: Engineered for ease of pulling and installation.
