Low-Voltage High-Temperature Wire
- Use for ovens and furnaces, panel and equipment (hook-up)
- Wire with FEP Plastic Insulation: Flexible
Wire with Silicone Rubber Insulation: Ultra Flexible - Temperature Range:
Wire with FEP Plastic Insulation: -239° to 390° F
Wire with Silicone Rubber Insulation: -100° to 400° F
Rated to 50 volts AC/DC, this wire is often used in small electronics and robotics. It’s also known as hook-up wire.
Wire with FEP insulation is chemical resistant.
Wire with silicone rubber insulation is ultra-flexible for use in applications that require tight turns. It also withstands moisture.
Silver-plated wire is stronger and more corrosion resistant than bare wire.
Continuous-Flex Wire
- Use for automation, continuous motion
- Continuous Flex
- Temperature Range:
All but Wire with Inner Insulation: -40° to 175° F
Wire with Inner Insulation: 45° to 190° F
Often used in automated applications such as robotics, this wire withstands continuous motion without degrading data or signal transmission.
Wire is a UL recognized component.
Wire gauges 30-36 are UL recognized components up to 30V AC.
Motor Winding Wire
- Use for motors
- Bend and Stay
- Maximum Temperature: 390° F
- Insulation: Polyamide
Also known as magnet wire, this wire is commonly used in motors, transformers, relays, and other high-speed winding applications. It meets NEMA 1000 MW-35C for material quality and -73C for use in sealed motors and material quality. It stays in the position you bend it.
Miniature Cable
- Use For: Automation, Interference Shielding, Continuous Motion
- Continuous Flex
- Temperature Range: -40° to 220° F
- Insulation: PVC Plastic
Often used in computers, small electronics, and electronic prototyping, this cable is very flexible with small gauge wire to handle tight curves in narrow spaces. It withstands continuous motion, so it’s also commonly used around heavy vibration and in automated tasks, including robotics. A braid shield blocks interference from nearby equipment.
