2 gauge wire can carry quite a bit of amperage but it depends on length. At around 20 feet it can handle 105-125 amps and then at less than 7 feet 250-300 amps.
The part # BDW20219 is 15 feet long so it would be rated at around 125-200. You'd have to compare that to the amperage draw of the pump you have.
