PTFE insulation for hook up and lead wire has many advantages. In addition to its reliability, the insulation exhibits exceptional resistance to ultra-violet radiation, stress, chemicals, and mold growth. It is even non-toxic and biocompatible. PTFE Wires and Cables are suitable for a wide frequency range and has a superb flex-life. The insulation on the lead wire also allows for savings in both space and weight, as compared to other insulation types used with hook up and lead wire.

ETFE, which is short for ethylene tetrafluoroethylene, is a chemical compound used as insulation for wire and cable products. ETFE Wires and Cables are popular because of its high corrosion resistance and mechanical strength. This fluorine-based plastic is commonly referred to as its brand name, Tefzel.

FEP Wires and Cables are designed for extreme environments and are suitable for use where high temperatures are a concern. This flexible cable has resistance to oils, fuel, chemicals, and cold and high heat.

Silicone Insulated Wires & Cables is made to withstand high temperatures. In applications where mechanical wear and tear break down other types of cables, consider hook-up wire insulated with silicone rubber.

Teflon, Glass, Glass, Teflon (TGGT) cable is a single-core, high-temperature wire rated for use at up to 250 degrees Celsius. It’s primarily used for the internal wiring of high-temperature appliances such as dryers, heaters, and furnaces.
