Wire, Hook Up, 16AWG, Stranded, Pvc, 600V, Mil-w-16878/1 Type b Violet
Tinned Copper Conductor, 600 V, +105°C Operating Temperature, 0.010 in. PVC Insulated Hook-Up Wire
** PVC Insulation Materials**
Vinyl plastic insulation is fast stripping, resists oil, solvents, and ozone. The colors are bright and remain distinct after processing. Applications include motors, transformers, fluorescent ballasts and fixtures, switchboards, panels, controls, rectifiers and electronic circuits. Meets VW-1 Vertical Wire Flame Test in many cases.
All hook-up wire has either tinned copper conductor insulated with extruded PVC, or stranded silver-coated conductor insulated with extruded TFE Teflon®. PVC is flame and ozone resistant, as well as being inert to most chemicals, oils and solvents. Teflon® is a fluorinated thermoplastic with outstanding thermal, physical and electrical properties.
Covers insulated wire for internal wiring of meters, panels, and electrical or electronic equipment.
