A tinned copper strand designed for use in high temperature, high voltage environments. This wire is coated with tin metal for improved performance. Tin coating on the wire improves its conductivity. It minimizes the effects of corrosion on the wire because tin has a high corrosion resistance. Also, tin has good thermal performance of up to 150 degrees Celsius and it will prevent oxidation within that temperature range. A tin coated wire is easily soldered and this ensures that connections are done pretty fast and effectively. Tin also has electrical conductivity of about 15 percent that of copper.
Applications
• For use in high voltage connections and circuits in environments exhibiting high temperatures of up to 200 degrees Celsius
• Ideal for use in spark ignitors and lighting systems
• The wire can be used in applications that demand up to 15 KV power.
• This cable can be used for various applications including lighting systems, gas ignitors, and in heating and cooling equipment. It can also be used to wire equipment such as motors, generators, transformers, and panels. The wire may be used in wiring of range tops, gas burners, fuel oil burners, and furnaces.
Insulation
• Extruded Silicone Rubber
• Silicone rubber is used to insulate the wire. This insulation is resistant to elements like chemicals, solvents, flame, heat, ozone, and UV light. It is also resistant to water, oxidation, and alkaline substances.
Characteristics
• Silicone formulations suitable for UV, ozone, moisture exposure
• Not suited for immersed applications.
• Suitable for applications to -60°C
• Superior flexibility
