Do you carry extension cords that are 100 feet long?

Yes, we offer a variety of 100-foot extension cords. You can find several options from brands like Coleman Cable and Bayco Products in our selection. Consider the gauge of the wire based on the amperage requirements of the tools you'll be using at that distance.

What extension cords do you recommend for use in a shop environment?

For shop use, look for heavy-duty extension cords that are oil and abrasion resistant. Brands like Milwaukee Electric Tools and blubird offer cords designed to withstand the rigors of a shop environment. Consider a cord with a lighted end to indicate power is flowing.

Are orange extension cords available?

Yes, we carry orange extension cords, which are often preferred for their high visibility on job sites. Many of our brands, including Wilmar - Performance Tool, offer orange cords in various lengths and gauges. The bright color helps prevent tripping hazards.

What is the difference between the different gauges of extension cords?

The gauge of an extension cord refers to the thickness of the wire; a lower gauge number indicates a thicker wire. Thicker wires can handle higher amperage loads and longer distances without voltage drop. Using the correct gauge is crucial to prevent overheating and potential fire hazards.

How do I choose the right extension cord for my power tool?

To choose the right extension cord, check the amperage rating of your power tool and match it to the cord's amperage capacity. Also, consider the length of the cord; longer cords require a heavier gauge to prevent voltage drop. Refer to the tool's manual for specific recommendations.

What does 'heavy-duty' mean when referring to extension cords?

A 'heavy-duty' extension cord typically indicates a thicker gauge wire, a more durable outer jacket, and a higher amperage rating. These cords are designed to withstand demanding environments and power tools with higher power consumption. Look for features like oil and water resistance for added durability.

Do you sell retractable extension cord reels?

Yes, we offer retractable extension cord reels from brands like Bayco Products and ATD Tools. These reels help keep your workspace organized and prevent tripping hazards. They are available in various lengths and with different outlet configurations.

What safety features should I look for in an extension cord?

When selecting an extension cord, look for features like a grounded plug (three-prong), a flame-retardant jacket, and overload protection. Some cords also have lighted ends to indicate power is flowing. Regularly inspect your cords for damage and replace them if necessary.
