18 AWG 2.1mm x 5.5mm DC Power Pigtail Kit

This pack contains ten male and ten female barrel connectors pre-wired with 18 AWG copper cable. Each pigtail measures 9.5 inches with pre-tinned leads for quick soldering. The 2.1mm by 5.5mm plugs suit standard 12 V DC devices such as CCTV cameras and LED strips.

Real 18 AWG conductor with 86 copper strands

Each cable uses 43 strands of 0.14 mm pure copper per conductor, totalling 86 strands across the red and black pair. This heavy gauge supports up to 5 A continuous current, unlike thinner 22 AWG alternatives that overheat on higher loads.

Pre-tinned ends simplify soldering and polarity ID

Red and black insulation makes polarity obvious during installation. The cables terminate in male or female 5.5 mm x 2.1 mm barrels, letting you extend or repair existing 12 V power runs without cutting factory leads. Flame-retardant PVC jacketing resists aging and UV exposure.

Questions about this item

What does the 18 AWG rating mean when I connect these pigtails to a 12 V power supply?

The 18 AWG conductors contain 86 strands of 0.14 mm copper, letting each pigtail carry up to 5 A continuously without overheating.

How does the 2.1 mm x 5.5 mm barrel standard limit what I can plug into these connectors?

The 5.5 mm outer and 2.1 mm inner diameters match the common 12 V CCTV and LED strip standard, so they only fit devices using that exact barrel size.

What clearance do I need behind the panel for the 9.5 inch pigtail length and pre-tinned ends?

Each pigtail is 9.5 inches of wire plus the connector body; the pre-tinned leads need only a few millimetres for soldering or crimping.
