Reliable 18 AWG, 16-conductor irrigation control cable on a 250 ft spool, engineered for low-voltage sprinkler systems. Color-coded PVC-insulated conductors and a robust PE outer jacket simplify installation and help protect the cable from moisture, UV and soil exposure when installed correctly.

  • 16 solid bare copper conductors, color-coded for fast valve identification and organized wiring runs; ideal for multi-zone irrigation systems.
  • PVC insulation rated for standard irrigation environments with an extruded PE outer jacket and integrated nylon rip cord for easier jacket removal.
  • Direct-burial construction suitable for underground trenching and valve-box installations when used in accordance with local codes and best practices.
  • Commonly used with 24V irrigation controllers to connect controller outputs to solenoid valves; designed for reliable low-voltage signal transmission.
  • 250 ft spool length provides long continuous runs for residential and commercial systems; spool markings assist with accurate measuring and cuts.
  • Manufactured to industry standards for irrigation cable performance; use proper waterproof connectors or valve-box enclosures for long-term durability.

This 18 AWG 16-conductor irrigation control wire balances organized, color-coded wiring with a durable outer jacket for wet or buried installations. Install using waterproof splices or heat-shrink with adhesive, place critical splices inside valve boxes, and follow local electrical and irrigation codes to ensure long service life.
