OEX ACX0912 0 B&S Single Core Battery Cable Black – 10m Heavy-Duty Roll for Auto & Marine

OEX ACX0912 Australian Made 0 B&S Single Core Battery Cable Black 10m Roll OFHC Copper 49.2mm² V90

The OEX ACX0912 is a 0 B&S single core battery cable in black, supplied on a 10m roll. With a 49.2mm² OFHC copper conductor across 696 strands, this is the largest cable in the OEX B&S battery cable range and is engineered for the most extreme high-current installations including commercial vehicle battery systems, heavy equipment starter motor feeds and high-capacity power distribution where no smaller gauge will suffice. The PVC insulation is UV stabilised and rated to V90 (90°C). Compliant with AS/NZS 3808:2000 and RoHS. Covered by a one year warranty. Weighs 5.26kg.

Product overview

At 49.2mm² with a 696-strand OFHC copper conductor, the ACX0912 sits above every other cable in the OEX B&S range, delivering the lowest resistance and highest current-carrying capacity available in the range. It is suited to the most extreme commercial and industrial high-current applications heavy commercial vehicle battery interconnect and main supply cables, high-capacity starter motor and alternator wiring, and industrial and marine main power distribution runs where the 2 B&S (32.17mm²) cable would be insufficient.

The 696-strand construction delivers remarkable flexibility for a cable of this enormous cross-section, making it manageable to route and terminate in heavy commercial installation environments. The UV stabilised V90 PVC insulation handles continuous operating temperatures up to 90°C for battery and engine bay installations. The 10m roll reflects the shorter run lengths typical of heavy commercial installations where this gauge is employed, and is priced and supplied accordingly. Always consult a qualified auto electrician or electrical engineer when specifying cable for extreme current applications.

Features and benefits

0 B&S gauge — the largest in the OEX battery cable range: Maximum current-carrying capacity and minimum resistance for the most extreme high-current commercial and industrial applications where no smaller gauge in the range is sufficient.

49.2mm² conductor cross-section: Significantly larger than 2 B&S (32.17mm²), providing the lowest resistance and highest current-carrying capacity of any cable in the OEX B&S range.

696-strand construction: Remarkable flexibility for a cable of this cross-section, making the ACX0912 manageable to route and terminate in heavy commercial installation environments despite the very large gauge.

OFHC copper conductor: Oxygen free high conductivity copper minimises resistance for efficient current transfer across the most extreme current commercial and industrial battery and supply circuit applications.

Australian owned and made: Premium quality copper cable produced locally to Australian automotive wiring standards.

UV stabilised PVC insulation: Resists degradation in sun-exposed and engine bay environments.

V90 temperature rating (90°C): PVC insulation rated for continuous operation at up to 90°C, suited to battery and engine bay installation environments in commercial and heavy vehicle applications.

AS/NZS 3808:2000 compliant: Meets the Australian and New Zealand standard for insulated conductors and cables for internal wiring of equipment.

RoHS compliant: Meets hazardous substance restrictions.

10m roll: Short-run format suited to heavy commercial battery and starter motor installations where long roll lengths are not required for this gauge.

Frequently asked questions

What is 0 B&S gauge? 0 B&S (Brown and Sharpe), also referred to as 1/0 AWG, corresponds to a conductor cross-section of around 49.2mm². It is the largest size in the OEX B&S battery cable range and is used in the most demanding heavy commercial and industrial high-current applications. Always consult a qualified auto electrician or electrical engineer when specifying cable for extreme current applications.

How does 0 B&S compare to 2 B&S and 4 B&S? 0 B&S has the largest conductor cross-section in the OEX B&S range at 49.2mm², compared to 2 B&S (32.17mm²) and 4 B&S (20.29mm²). It delivers the lowest resistance and highest current-carrying capacity of any cable in the range, suited to the most extreme commercial and industrial applications where the 2 B&S cable would be insufficient.

Why is this cable only supplied on a 10m roll? The 10m roll format reflects the shorter run lengths typical of heavy commercial battery and starter motor installations where 0 B&S is specified. At this cross-section, most installations require only a few metres per connection point, making a 10m roll the practical trade format for this gauge.

What does V90 mean? V90 is the Australian cable insulation classification indicating the PVC insulation is rated for continuous operation at up to 90°C. It is the standard specification for automotive-grade PVC insulated cable in Australia and confirms suitability for battery and engine bay installation positions.
