MIL-DTL-22759/80, /81, /82 wire—light weight, composite insulation
MIL-DTL-22759/80, /81, and /82 wires are light-
weight, high-performance aerospace hookup wires
with a dual-layer insulation of PTFE/polyimide/PTFE
tape, covered with PTFE tape.
These wires are designed for aerospace and other
applications requiring excellent thermal stability,
light weight, and high break strength.
These wires are available with our unique Seamless
Wrap PTFE tape insulation (see page 54 for details
and part numbers).
Performance:
Voltage rating: 600V.
Temperature rating: /80: -55 to 150˚ C
/81: -55 to 200˚ C
/82: -55 to 260˚ C
Construction Details
Insulation: PTFE/polyimide/PTFE tape (inner layer);
PTFE tape (outer layer).
Conductor: /80: Tin-plated copper;
/81: Silver-plated high-strength (AWG 20-24)
or ultra-high-strength copper alloy (AWG 26).
/82: Nickel-plated high-strength (AWG 20-24)
or ultra-high-strength copper alloy (AWG 26).
Colors: Color coded to MIL-STD-681.
Identification: Per MIL-DTL-22759/80, /81, and /82.
