12V Motorcycle Battery Charging Cable 18AWG SAE Lead 6cm (2 Inch) Black Red Blue

Connecting a battery charger or maintainer to your motorcycle battery can be awkward when space is tight and cables get in the way. This 12V motorcycle battery charging cable solves that problem with a short 6cm (2-inch) lead that sits neatly between the battery and your charger. Made from 18AWG SPT-2 105C wire, it handles standard 12V to 24V charging systems. The cable comes with a standard SAE connector and is available in black, red, or blue to help with colour-coding your setup.

Features and Construction

This cable is built around simple, functional specifications that make it a practical choice for connecting a charger or maintainer to a motorcycle battery.

Material and Build

The wire is 18AWGx2C SPT-2 rated to 105°C, which means it can handle moderate heat without degrading. SPT-2 is a standard parallel lamp cord style wire, chosen for its flexibility and durability in static installations. The cable has two conductors, suitable for positive and negative connections.

Size and Practical Fit

At just 6cm (2 inches) long, this cable creates a very short link between battery terminals and the charger connector. This reduces excess cable that can be difficult to tuck away in cramped battery compartments. The compact length also means less risk of snagging or trapping the wire when reinstalling the battery or side panels.

Uses and Placement

This cable is designed for connecting a battery charger or maintainer to a 12V motorcycle battery, but it can also work with other 12V to 24V systems that use SAE connectors.

Motorcycle and Powersport Use

Ideal for use on motorcycles, scooters, ATVs, and other powersport vehicles where battery access is limited. The short length makes it particularly useful for batteries mounted under seats, in side compartments, or inside fairings where space is at a premium.

Workshop and Storage Use

When your vehicle is in storage or parked in a garage, this cable lets you quickly connect a trickle charger without removing the battery. Simply leave the cable attached to the battery and plug in your charger as needed.

Benefits and Buying Value

This cable offers practical advantages for anyone who regularly charges or maintains a 12V battery.

Heat Resistance

The 105°C temperature rating means the wire insulation can withstand the moderate heat found near engine blocks and exhaust components, reducing the risk of melting or degradation over time.

Colour-Coded Identification

With black, red, and blue options available, you can choose a colour that matches your existing wiring or makes polarity identification easier. The coloured insulation also helps distinguish this cable from other wires in a complex electrical system.
