This is a 125-foot coil of 8-gauge, 2-conductor NM-B copper cable with a bare ground, rated 600V and made for dry, above-ground branch circuits. The black SLiPWire jacket is the selling point: it is formulated to pull through conduit and knockouts with less friction and to strip cleanly, which saves time on rough-in. It suits homeowners and electricians wiring ranges, dryers, subpanels and other 40-amp circuits where 8-gauge is required. Against generic NM-B, the jacket and Made-in-USA copper are the main differences; it is not for wet locations, buried runs or conduit outdoors.

Electricians and DIYers generally rate NM-B cable like this on how it pulls and strips, and the SLiPWire jacket draws consistent praise for both. Complaints tend to be about stiffness of 8-gauge wire and the limits of the NM-B rating rather than the cable itself.
This is Type NM-B copper building wire in an 8-2 size, supplied as a 125-foot coil with a black jacket. It is used in residential building wiring as a branch circuit cable for switches and outlets. The voltage rating is 600 volts.
The jacket is designed for easy pulling and stripping. The cable can be run through air voids in masonry block or tile walls, as long as the surfaces are free of moisture. It is for above-ground installation in dry, indoor locations only. It is made in America.
