Hi Victor!
The Bulldog Winch Booster Cable Set - Clamp to Clamp - 2 Gauge - 20' Long # BDW20233 uses double-extruded, copper-clad aluminum wire, so I guess the answer to your questions is, yes. The clamps are 100% brass though.
With that said, if you are looking for 100% copper jumper cable wire, you are going to want the Deka 2 Gauge Professional Service Booster Cables - 24' Long # DW00161 (I found some conflicting information out there on the web about that, but I just called Deka and they confirmed the wire's construction). The clamps on these are chrome plated steel and they are also American made, which is nice.
Do you find your battery going dead a lot or are you the rescuer?

Hey Victor, how did the Deka booster cables work out for you? I'm curious if the 100% copper wire made a noticeable difference when jumping batteries. Your feedback could help others choosing between these two cable types.
