Southwire 75-ft 8 / 3 / Romex SIMpull Stranded Indoor CU NM-B W/G Individual pack ( By-the-roll )
How flexable is it?

Hi, happy to help! No — 8/3 NM‑B is not flexible enough to make a welder extension cord, and it will be extremely stiff, difficult to coil, and not rated for repeated movement. If we can help in any other way, please reach out to us at consumersupport@southwire.com.

Was this Answer Helpful ?This product is for fixed in place building wiring and is not for use as an extension cord. You should be looking at 8-4 SOOW cord.
