The OSRAM Battery Starter Cable OSC500 is a 5-metre heavy-duty jump-start cable with a 50mm² copper-coated aluminium conductor. The copper coating reduces cable resistance for constant, effective charge transfer. A peak of 1200A is achievable, with a sustained continuous rating of 600A, making it capable of starting petrol and diesel engines up to 9.5 litres of displacement.

The cables are sheathed in flexible PVC and fitted with colour-coded, insulated clamps and handles to prevent accidental reverse polarity connection. A nylon storage bag is included; operating instructions are printed on the back of the bag for quick reference. OSRAM provides a two-year guarantee on this product.
