Insulated copper wire GOOBAY RB55043 — 10 m, 0.14 mm², orange, Ø 1.1 mm

GOOBAY insulated copper wire RB55043 is a 10 m length of stranded single-core conductor designed for low-voltage wiring and light electrical tasks. The conductor consists of fine copper strands with a cross-section of 0.14 mm² (AWG 26) and an overall diameter of approximately 1.1 mm, insulated in orange PVC. This flexible, thin wire is intended for signal connections, prototyping, hobby electronics, model making and repair work where a compact, pliable insulated conductor is required.

Advantages

The stranded copper construction (18 × 0.1 mm strands) yields high flexibility compared with solid wire of the same cross-section, making routing and repeated movement easier. The PVC insulation provides basic mechanical protection and good resistance to typical temperature variations encountered in household and hobby environments. The wire’s diameter and insulation colour support clear identification and neat installations. It is compatible with wire end ferrules and can be used with spring and screw terminals.

Suitable for

• Low-voltage wiring in small appliances and electronic assemblies
• Prototyping and hobby electronics, including model railways and scale models
• Signal wiring and interconnections in measuring instruments and control circuits
• Repair and maintenance work requiring a thin, flexible insulated conductor

Key specifications

How to use

Cut the GOOBAY insulated copper wire to the required length using appropriate wire cutters. Strip the insulation carefully to expose the conductor without nicking the copper strands. For reliable terminations, twist the strands or fit a suitable wire end ferrule before inserting into spring or screw terminals. Observe correct polarity and routing to avoid mechanical strain or sharp bends; maintain appropriate clearances from high-voltage conductors and heat sources.

Usage recommendations

Use this wire for low-voltage and signal applications only. Do not use for mains power or where a certified mains-rated cable is required. For improved long-term terminations in environments with vibration or movement, use wire end ferrules and tighten terminals to the manufacturer’s recommended torque. Store the reel in a dry, cool place away from direct sunlight.
