Reliable 18 AWG, 8-conductor control cable on a 1,000-foot spool for irrigation systems and other low-voltage valve-control applications. Built for direct burial use, this multi-conductor wire keeps controllers and solenoid valves communicating reliably over long runs.

  • Length: 1,000 feet per spool—ideal for large yards and commercial zones.
  • Conductor: Solid 18 AWG copper conductors for stable current transmission.
  • Construction: Color-coded PVC insulation on each conductor for easy identification during install.
  • Jacket: Durable polyethylene (PE) outer jacket with nylon rip cord for fast jacket removal and UV resistance.
  • Ratings: Designed for low-voltage irrigation control; commonly listed to UL/ETL standards for control cable (verify local code requirements).

Engineered for installers and landscapers, this 18/8 x 1000' spool reduces splice points and saves time on long runs. Use proper waterproof connectors or direct-burial splice kits at joins and valve-box terminations. Compatible with most 24V irrigation controllers—confirm controller output specs before purchase.
