  • SAE J2394 compliant for dolly ABS systems
  • Heavy-duty zinc die-cast plugs with spring guards resist damage
  • Green plastic jacket protects 0, 6 and 8 ga wires

Velvac 590160 ABS Coiled Cord

The Velvac 590160 is a 12-foot coiled cord built for ABS braking systems on vehicles and trailers. It uses a 7-way connection with brass contacts and a durable green plastic outer jacket. Heavy-duty zinc die-cast plugs with integrated spring guards protect the cable ends. A 12-inch straight lead on each side simplifies installation in tight routing spaces.

SAE J-2394 Compliance for Sustained Use

The cord meets SAE J-2394 standards, confirming its construction suits the continuous electrical demands of anti-lock brake circuits. Mixed wire gauges of 0, 6, and 8 ga handle the combined power and signal loads without voltage drop over the full 144-inch working length. The coiled design retracts reliably after repeated extension cycles, maintaining consistent contact alignment during daily trailer coupling and uncoupling.

Green Jacket Durability and Plug Protection

The thick green insulation resists abrasion, oil, and road debris encountered in normal machine-shop and yard environments. Zinc die-cast plug housings withstand impact and corrosion better than standard plastic alternatives. Internal spring guards absorb tensile stress at the cable-to-plug junction, preventing conductor fatigue where failures most often start. Brass contacts maintain low-resistance conductivity through humidity and temperature swings.

Questions about this item

Does the 12 ft coiled ABS cord generate noticeable heat when powering trailer brakes all day?

The 7-way coiled cord uses brass contacts and a plastic-insulated green jacket rated to SAE J-2394, so normal brake-light and ABS currents stay well within its thermal limits during continuous operation.

What must already be on the vehicle and trailer for this 590160 cord to plug in and function?

Both the dolly and the trailer need standard SAE 7-way sockets; the cord’s heavy-duty zinc die-cast plugs with spring guards mate directly to those sockets without adapters.

Will the 144 in lead length reach the ABS module on an older trailer that keeps its original 7-way receptacle location?

Yes — the 12 ft coiled length plus 12 in straight leads on each end provides ample reach for legacy receptacle positions while the coiled section absorbs slack during turns.
