UL List High Temperature Teflon wire Manufacturer

What is Teflon wire?

Teflon wire is a type of high-temperature wire, it is a special wire, what we often use in electrical hook-up wires is PVC wire, The Teflon wire we usually talk about now includes the following four types: FEP coated wire, PFA coated wire, PTFE coated wire and ETFE coated wire, FEP(Fluorinated ethylene propylene) is 200°C, PFA(Polyfluoroalkoxy) is 250°C, PTFE(Poly tetra fluoroethylene) is 260°C, ETFE(Ethylene-tetrafluoroethylene) is 150°C, they are all fluoroplastic insulated wires.

Why Teflon Wire is better than other hook-up wires?

Electrical Wires with Teflon insulation are much better equipped to resist oil, oxidation, heat, sunlight, and flame, while also remaining flexible at low temperatures even to -40°C. Teflon wire has excellent corrosion resistance, it is almost insoluble in any organic solvent, it also can resist oil, strong acid, strong alkali, and strong oxidant, and it has excellent electrical insulation performance, high voltage resistance, no moisture absorption, high insulation resistance. Teflon cable has excellent aging resistance, fire resistance, and long service life. what's more, the insulation thickness of Teflon can be made much thinner, therefore, it is also widely used in some precision equipment and instruments.

the wire conundrum! In the electrical component world, it's often the little things that make the biggest difference, isn't it? Now, let's dissect why Teflon wires stand tall in the battle of the hook-up wires, shall we?

Heat Resistance

Teflon wires can endure a considerable temperature range, typically -60°C to 260°C. This is a rare trait that ensures peak performance even in the most extreme conditions, particularly essential in specialized applications like solar power systems where thermal efficiency is crucial.

Chemical Resistance

Teflon is resistant to chemicals, solvents, and corrosives. Picture this: your protective components, be it a DC Circuit Breaker or a Rapid Shutdown Device, can enjoy a longer lifespan and maintain higher quality when wired with Teflon.

Electrical Properties

High dielectric strength and low dielectric constant make Teflon wires the go-to for high-frequency applications. The wire acts almost like a mini-guardian for your electrical circuits, safeguarding them from electrical mishaps.

Mechanical Robustness

When it comes to mechanical stress, Teflon wires are Hercules in disguise. They maintain their shape and integrity even under strain, making them highly reliable in the dynamic environment of solar installations.

Fire Safety

Given your commitment to quality and safety, you'll appreciate that Teflon is flame-retardant. Safety is never a secondary concern; it's a prerequisite for quality, especially when your products comply with CB, CE, TUV, ISO9001, and RoHS standards.

Cost-Efficiency in the Long Run

While Teflon wires may have a higher upfront cost, their durability and efficiency translate to fewer replacements and less maintenance. A penny saved is a penny earned, as they say in the business world.

How do you identify Teflon wire?

1. Determination method by density, the density of Teflon is about 2.3, and PVC is about 1.45, So Teflon is harder than PVC.
2. Combustion test method, Teflon is known for its superior thermal properties that allow these cables to withstand higher temperatures than other hook-up wires, So it is very difficult to burn.   

Where is Teflon wire used?

1. The rated voltage of Teflon wires is 600 volts. And Teflon high-temperature wires can also be used in long-term humid environments, with excellent electrical performance, water resistance, and mildew resistance. Suitable for high-pressure resistant high-temperature environments such as various mobile motors, steel, aviation, power plants, and petrochemical industries.
2. It is suitable for use when the long-term allowable working temperature is lower than 260 °C and the ambient temperature is not lower than - 40 °C. It is suitable for the electrical connection of mobile appliances in high-temperature or low-temperature resistant environments such as electric power, metallurgy, and chemical engineering.
3. It has good UV resistance, good resistance to acid, alkali, mold, humid and hot environments, and various oils, as well as good elasticity, water resistance, and pressure resistance. It is widely used in medical equipment and monitoring equipment.
4. Teflon wire has high-temperature resistance, cold resistance, wear resistance, and stability. With good anti-aging performance and long service life, it is used for mobile equipment with special requirements such as automobiles, handicrafts, conveying machinery, electrical control, lighting, communication, etc. It can also be used in household appliances, heating equipment, drinking water equipment, air conditioning, lighting equipment, electronic equipment, electric heating products, computers, aviation, and other fields
