MIL-W-16878/6 Type ET Wire

This Belden Teflon Hook-Up Wire meets UL Style 1371 and the M16878/6 Mil-Spec. It is suitable for high-temperature applications. The medium wall Teflon insulation offers high reliability and excellent thermal stability. This wire resists chemicals, ultra-violet radiation, and mold growth and is non-toxic and safe for the environment. It is also suitable for immersion in gasoline and for use in a wide frequency range. In comparison to other insulations, Teflon saves space, weighs less, and is easy to install. UL 1371 wire applications include military harnessing, power supply lead wire, appliance wiring, and medical electronics.
