Application and Description
These PTFE insulated single-core MIL-W-16878/5 (Type EE) wires are used in military harnessing, power
supply lead wire, appliance wiring and medical electronics, The MIL Spec wire has excellent resistance
to thermal aging, solder iron damage, flame, and moisture. PTFE also resists solvents, greases, ozone
and most other chemicals. The heavy wall PTFE insulation has a great flex-life and is suitable for a wide
frequency range. Compared with other insulations, PTFE saves space and weight and is easy to install.
