Single-core PTFE wire HELUFLON®-PTFE-5Y 1xAWG16/19 (1.23 mm²) yellow-green, 600 V 25247

Robust PTFE cable for extreme conditions

This high-quality HELUKABEL HELUFLON-PTFE-5Y T.E 600 V cable is the ideal solution for applications requiring resistance to high temperatures, aggressive chemicals and harsh environmental conditions. This cable is widely used in industrial installations, switchgear cabinet construction, furnaces, brickworks, kitchen appliances and the chemical industry. Its exceptional properties make it reliable even in the most demanding applications.

Construction and materials

The cable features a solid construction. Its copper core is silver-plated, ensuring excellent conductivity and corrosion resistance. The insulation made of PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene) – HELUFLON® – guarantees exceptional resistance to temperature (from -190°C to +260°C, briefly up to +300°C), chemicals, radiation and flame-retardant properties. It complies with DIN VDE 0207 part 6 and MIL-W 16878. The cable is available in various colors – to order a specific color, add the appropriate symbol to the catalog number (1 = black, 2 = red, 3 = blue, 4 = brown, 5 = white, 6 = transparent, 7 = two-color, 8 = other colors). The core can also be supplied bare, tinned or nickel-plated on request.

Properties and advantages

• Exceptional thermal resistance: The cable retains its properties over a wide temperature range – from -190°C to +260°C (briefly up to +300°C). This is crucial in applications exposed to extreme temperatures.
• Chemical resistance: PTFE is a material extremely resistant to the action of most acids, bases, solvents and oils. This makes the cable perfect for chemical environments.
• High insulation: PTFE provides excellent insulating properties (min. 1 GOhm x km), guaranteeing safety and minimizing energy losses.
• Flame retardancy: Self-extinguishing and flame-retardant material – tested according to DIN VDE 0482-332-1-2, DIN EN 60332-1-2 and IEC 60332-1 standards.
• Radiation resistance: The cable is resistant to radiation up to 1 x 10⁵ cJ/kg (up to 1 Mrad).
• Low water absorption: Water absorption below 0.01%, ensuring stable electrical parameters even in a humid environment.
• Compliance with standards: The product meets the requirements of the Low Voltage Directive 2014/35/EU (CE marking).

The core cross-section is 1.23 mm², and the outer diameter is approximately 2.24 mm. The operating voltage of the cable is 600V. Thanks to these parameters, this cable is ideal for both professional installers and end customers looking for a reliable solution in difficult working conditions.
