Single-core PTFE wire HELUFLON®-PTFE-5Y 1xAWG22/19 (0.38 mm²) red, 600 V 25192

PTFE wire for extreme conditions

This red HELUFLON-PTFE-5Y T.E wire with a cross-section of 0.38 mm² is a specialized solution for applications requiring high thermal and chemical resistance. The wire is designed to operate in harsh conditions, such as furnaces, industrial installations, or chemical environments. Its construction and materials ensure reliability and safety in demanding applications.

Construction and properties

The wire is characterized by a silver-plated copper core, which improves its conductivity and corrosion resistance. The PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene) insulation – a material with exceptional properties – guarantees resistance to high temperatures (up to +260°C, briefly up to +300°C) and aggressive chemical substances, such as acids, alkalis, solvents, oils, and gasoline. Additionally, PTFE provides low electrical losses and is non-flammable.

• Core made of silver-plated copper – ensures good conductivity and corrosion resistance.
• PTFE insulation – guarantees high thermal and chemical resistance.
• Rated voltage 600 V – allows use in various electrical installations.
• Flexible construction (class 5) – facilitates installation and routing of wires in tight spaces.
• Radiation resistance – allows use in environments exposed to ionizing radiation (up to 1 x 10⁵ cJ/kg).

Applications and compliance with standards

The HELUFLON-PTFE-5Y T.E wire is used in:

• Installations and construction of switchgear cabinets operating in extreme thermal conditions.
• Furnaces, brickworks, and kitchen and measuring devices.
• Chemical industries requiring resistance to aggressive chemical substances.
• Applications where high temperature resistance and electrical stability are required.

The wire meets the requirements of the Low Voltage Directive 2014/35/EU (CE marking). In accordance with DIN VDE 0881 and IEC 60673 standards, it ensures safe and reliable operation under specified operating conditions. The minimum bending radius is 10 x cable diameter, which facilitates installation even in tight spaces. The insulation resistance is min. 1 GOhm x km, which ensures high quality electrical insulation.
