The industrial standard for grounded portable power, this 16 AWG 3-conductor SJOOW cord provides the robust current-carrying capacity and physical durability required for heavy-duty tools and machinery. Featuring high-flex stranding and a specialized thermoset jacket, this 300V-rated cord is designed to survive the most punishing job site conditions while maintaining superior flexibility.
The 16 AWG gauge is the versatile "sweet spot" for portable power, providing significantly more ampacity than 18 AWG without the bulk of 14 AWG. The SJOOW designation identifies it as a "Junior" (300V) service cord that is fully resistant to Oil, Water, and Weather (UV). Its thermoset CPE jacket is "cured" under heat during manufacturing, ensuring it will not melt, deform, or "cold flow" when exposed to extreme industrial environments.
Elite Oil & Chemical Shielding: The premium-grade CPE (Chlorinated Polyethylene) jacket is specifically engineered to remain stable when in contact with cutting fluids, lubricants, and harsh solvents.
Extreme Thermal Range: Rated to remain supple and functional from -40°C to +90°C, preventing the jacket brittleness and cracking that occurs with standard PVC cords in cold storage or winter conditions.
Safety Ground Integration: Includes a dedicated green grounding conductor along with standard black and white leads, providing essential fault protection for grounded portable equipment.
High-Flex Class K Stranding: Utilizes fine-strand bare copper conductors, allowing the cord to endure constant reeling, twisting, and vibration without conductor fatigue.
Conductor Size: 16 AWG
Number of Conductors: 3
Color Code: Black, White, Green
Ampacity: 13 Amps (Based on NEC Table 400.5(A)(1))
Voltage Rating: 300V
Jacket Material: Premium Grade Thermoset CPE (Black)
Insulation: Oil-Resistant EPDM
Conductor Material: Fully Annealed Stranded Bare Copper (Class K)
Standards: UL 62, CSA C22.2 No. 49, MSHA Approved, OSHA Acceptable
Industrial Portable Tools: The definitive choice for heavy-duty grinders, circular saws, and portable drills requiring a grounded connection.
Pendant and Remote Controls: Ideal for overhead crane controls and push-button stations where high flexibility and durability are paramount.
Submersible Pump Leads: Rated for continuous moisture exposure, making it suitable for small sump pumps and water-transfer equipment.
Commercial Maintenance Equipment: Frequently used for professional floor buffers, industrial vacuum cleaners, and high-pressure washers.
Technical Note: All values are nominal and subject to industry tolerances and manufacturer corrections. Specifications are subject to change without notice. It is the buyer’s responsibility to verify that all materials meet the specific requirements of the project and comply with local electrical codes.

This 16 AWG, 3-conductor portable cord is the most versatile "medium-duty" cable for professional and industrial environments. It is the specific choice for grounded power supply cords on larger portable tools (like table saws and hammer drills), commercial floor care equipment, and hospital-grade medical devices. Because it includes a dedicated ground, it is the standard for any 120V equipment with a metal chassis that requires protection against electrical faults.
The SJOOW rating identifies this as a "Hard Service" cord built for durability in demanding conditions:
This cord is rated for 13 Amps per conductor. This rating is based on an ambient temperature of 30°C (86°F) per NEC standards for 2-conductor assemblies.
Standard extension cords (often made with PVC or SJT jackets) stiffen in the cold and melt when exposed to oils or heat. SJOOW uses rubber-based materials that maintain their flexibility and chemical resistance, making them the only choice for professional/industrial use.
This cord follows the standard North American color code for grounded 120V circuits:
The primary difference is the voltage rating:
16/3 SJOOW is built to survive in industrial "hot zones" and greasy environments:
