What’s the Description of 12 AWG Teflon Wire?
12 AWG Teflon wire is used in a variety of general-purpose electrical applications. Stranded silver plated copper wire provides a good electrical connection. The Extruded Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) insulation allows for use in high-temperature electronic applications and protects the wire against scratch, chemicals, solvents, and oils. It also has excellent thermal aging, solder moisture, damage, and flame resistance. The wire conforms to MIL-spec specifications, and provides excellent uniformity for easy processing, stripping, and terminating. Available in Black, Blue, Brown, Gray, Green, Orange, Red, Violet, White, & Yellow.
