18 Ga. Stranded, Tin Plated, Aerospace Grade, Tefzel Wire
Military specification (MIL-SPEC), aerospace grade, 600V rated, irradiated cross-linked Ethylene TetraFluoroEthylene (ETFE) thin wall insulation, 18 AWG with 19 / 30 stranded tinned copper hookup wire. Conforms to Mil-Spec MIL-W-22759/16-18-(color).
This wire is manufactured to the U.S. Department of Defense military specification (the world-wide standard) for the aerospace / defense industry. By law, it meets and exceeds rigorous manufacturing and testing requirements for wire used in high temperature, extreme environments. This ETFE insulation has better mechanical toughness than PTFE (Teflon) with the same extreme heat resistance. It is recommended to use good quality, sharp wire strippers and cutters.
If you are looking for the highest quality wire for building your new project, then this is your wire.

Perfect for heater wiring to power tubes!

Really great wire. The insulation is truly high temperature. The wire itself is well tinned and solders very well. The 18 awg wire is quite stiff and will remain in the shape it's bend in, so works very well for twisted heater wire and for free floating leads from tube sockets to turret/eyelet board. I will use this wire again.
