IWH Jump Cable 075635 — 40.0 mm² aluminium (copper-coated), 4.5 m

IWH Jump Cable 075635 is a 4.5 m long starter cable with 40.0 mm² aluminium conductors that are copper-coated to improve conductivity. The cable is designed for vehicle jump-starting and battery transfers, balancing conductivity and reduced weight compared with pure-copper alternatives. Insulated clamps are included to enable safer electrical connections.

Advantages

The copper-coated aluminium conductors provide improved electrical contact while keeping the cable lighter than equivalent copper-only cables. At 4.5 m length the cable offers sufficient reach between vehicles. Insulated clamps help reduce the risk of accidental short circuits during use. The construction is intended for repeated jump-starts and temporary battery transfers for passenger cars, vans and light commercial vehicles.

Key specifications

How to use

Park the donor and the recipient vehicles close enough so the 4.5 m cable can reach both batteries without stretching. Turn off both ignitions and electrical consumers (lights, radio). Connect the positive (+) clamp to the positive terminal of the discharged battery and the other positive clamp to the positive terminal of the donor battery. Connect one negative (–) clamp to the negative terminal of the donor battery and attach the remaining negative clamp to a grounded metal point on the recipient vehicle, away from the battery. Start the donor vehicle, then attempt to start the recipient vehicle. After successful start, remove the clamps in reverse order and stow the cable.

Recommendations

Inspect clamps and cable insulation before each use; do not use if damaged. Use the cable only for the intended purpose of jump-starting and battery transfers, and follow vehicle manufacturer safety instructions. Store the cable dry and protected from extreme temperatures to preserve the copper coating and insulation.
