Is this UV / Weather resistent?

I don't know. I would assume it has some weather resistance. I bought it for outdoor use for cinching down on covers I am making. If they are in the sun I'm sure the UV light will eventually degrade them over time. But I plan on keeping them cover where possible. Hope that helps!

i was asked to say something about the product. i have not used the elastic cord outside ,so we both don't know the answer .

The particular model you are asking about is weather proof. I have 3 of the, installed outside my home. Other very close model numbers are not.

Considering that if it was UV rated they would brag about it I would say no! the outside protection does not seem heavy or thick such as UV rated electrical wire. Plan on interior or conduit for this!

It doesn't say anything about UV on the package. The graph shows little output below 400nm, <5% daylight. It's equivalent to a 10w fluorescent and a 50w incandescent.

I haven't had a problem with UV damage and it's exposed to the strong So. Cal. sun all year round. My problem has been slight stress cracks from the weight of the water. I had a crack almost immediately after installation and Spalding sent me a free replacement. Now three years later I have a slight leak again. I would suggest filling with sand so leaks won't be an issue.

I would say it is water resistant. But not water proof. I have mine in the garage and so can't speak with authority, but I feel the material would not hold up well to ambient UV.

The product is sealed as it is weather resistant. I had no issues with my speakeI would suggest you check the connection

No it is not weather resistant. Indoor/Office use only. Very thin metal. Does not have a tight seal.

I used this for connecting controllers within my Christmas display. So I did use them outdoors, but only for a month or so. I'm not sure about long-term exposure outdoors. I'm sure it would be fine within conduit or some area not exposed to UV.

Yes, my cable is about 75% out exposed to the elements, mostly the sun and its been working great since i got it

Yes. I've had mine outside, with some sun exposure, and it holds up just fine.

Not sure about the weatherization of the PVC, but make sure to get solid copper. This is copper plated aluminum, so you may have connectivity issues.

YES! Our cover material is highly resistant to deterioration from UV. Great question. Thanks! - JWALT

It has a UV coating on it but like anything, enough time in the sun will damage the outer coating. Wouldn't damage the line itself. 8 would recommend removing the hose when not in use. It does have a quick disconnect.

I would not leave it exposed to weather. It will eventually show corrosion.

Hi Brad,It sure seems to be - I've left mine out in elements here Califonia through some heavy rain and it's been fine - extremely happy with unit and the recharae feature is the way to go. I've inverted mine for a softer light and highly recommend based on my usage !Tom

Hody , I use mine indoors so I don`t have any experience with UV ... it is a bright yellow , so better in the sun than black or grey chords . I love my US Wire product !
