Some jobs are just harder on equipment. Grease on the floor, chemicals in the air, tools running all day — most power cords weren’t built for that. SOOW was.

Designed as a heavy-duty portable power and control cable, SOOW handles what standard cords can’t. Use it for industrial tools, portable lighting, battery chargers, motor leads, or ground test applications. It’s the go-to cable in industries like mining, construction, manufacturing, oil & gas, and utilities — wherever you need reliable power in a demanding environment.

The synthetic rubber insulation stands up to oils, solvents, grease, and open flame without cracking or breaking down. The flexible bunch-stranded bare copper conductor stays manageable even after long hours of heavy use. And with UL, CSA, and MSHA acceptance — plus the manufacturer’s P number printed right on the cable — compliance is never a question.

SOOW vs SJOOW — What’s the Difference? SOOW is the heavier-duty option. It’s rated at 600V compared to SJOOW’s 300V, making it the right choice for more demanding power applications, larger equipment, and environments that require MSHA compliance. If your job site is tougher, SOOW is your cable.
