Customers of our HotRod heat stick were always asking for recommendations on a source for wire that was rated for boil temperatures. Since the local big box stores rarely stock higher temp rated wires. In an effort to work towards that one-stop-shop ideal, here it is! This wire is nice and flexible and easy to work with. Use this 10 gauge wire for either the Hot Rod or Hot Pods for our 5500 watt elements. It is available by the foot so whatever the quantity in the cart is, that's how many feet you'll get. This cable does NOT come with any grips or plugs.
