25 ft 18-gauge vintage lighting cord

The usbroway 25 ft 18-gauge 2-conductor cord is a textile-braided wire designed for pendant lighting, table lamps, floor lamps and fans. It uses 18AWG pure copper conductors with semi-rigid PVC insulation wrapped in a cotton and hemp cloth cover. The rope styling adds a retro aesthetic while replacing worn or damaged appliance cords. Rated for 300 V and 105 °C, it suits light portable fixtures in DIY projects.

Suits decorative rewiring not data transfer

This cord fits hobbyists restoring vintage fixtures or building custom lamps who need a cloth-covered, twisted two-conductor wire. It is not a USB data cable despite the category label, so buyers wanting to connect printers, scanners or other peripherals should look for a proper USB cable with Type-A, Type-B or Type-C connectors. The construction targets line-voltage lighting circuits, not low-voltage signalling.

300 V 105 °C rating determines safe use

The single specification that decides suitability is the 300 V and 105 °C rating on the 18-gauge copper conductors. This defines the maximum voltage and temperature the insulation can handle continuously. Installers must ensure the fixture draws within these limits and that local codes permit cloth-covered flexible cord for the intended application.

Questions about this item

Does the 25 ft length reach a ceiling-mounted pendant without splicing?

Yes, the cord measures 25 ft end-to-end, giving enough slack for most ceiling drops.

How do I terminate the 18-gauge conductors safely?

Strip each conductor, twist the pure copper strands, and secure them under the lamp socket terminals — do not leave loose strands.

When should I replace the braided cover?

Replace the cord if the cotton-hemp braid frays, the PVP insulation cracks, or the copper conductors become exposed.
