About Wire and Cable

Use for solar equipment, automation, continuous motion
Continuous Flex
Temperature Range: -85° to 325° F
Insulation: Silicone Rubber

A thick insulation protects this wire from high voltages while maintaining flexibility. The insulation also resists moisture. Often used in automated applications such as robotics, it withstands continuous motion without degrading data or signal transmission. It meets UL 94 V-0 for flame retardance. If this wire is exposed to flames, it minimizes how much smoke and halogen it releases.

UV-Resistant Wire

Use for outdoors, buildings, solar equipment, power supply
Flexible
Temperature Range: -40° to 190° F
Insulation: Cross-Linked Polyethylene (XLPE)

Also known as photovoltaic (PV) wire, this wire won’t deteriorate from UV light when used outdoors. Often used in solar panels, the cross-linked polyethylene (XPLE) insulation won’t break down from prolonged exposure to high temperatures. The insulation also resists chemicals. An RHW-2 industry designation means this wire withstands underground and wet locations.
