Our Primary Wire is top of the line and has excellent features. All of Allied’s primary automotive wire meets SAE J-1128, Ford and Chrysler specifications. Products in our inventory include, SXL, GXL, TXL, GPT, TWP and HDT. While some primary wire is rated for general use, such as circuit wiring, others are used in more specific scenarios, such as GXL which is mostly used in trucks and trailers. SXL wire is used in applications that have a need for high heat resistance and high temperature performance. It is therefore rated up to 125°C whereas GPT and HDT are rated to only 80°C. We also boast a range of sizes for certain types of automotive primary wire that include 22 AWG to 4/0 AWG.
