Applications

SPEC 55 wire is insulated

with modified radiation

cross-linked ETFE polymer.

It has a temperaturerating

of -65°C to 200°C [-85°F to

392°F] continuous using a

silver plated copper con-

ductor,and combines the

easy handling of a flexible

wire with excellent scrape

abrasion and cut-through

characteristics.

The dual wall airframe con-

struction of SPEC 55 wireis

currently used on numerous

aircraft programs. It has a

choice of two total wall

thicknesses, 0.25 [.010]

(55A08XX 10 mil) and 0.2

[.008] (55A02XX 8 mil).

Both have a contrasting

core color to act as a dam-

age indicator. Chosen for its

balance of properties,

SPEC 55 wire has outstand-

ing resistance to chemicals

and solvents, excellent

electrical arc track resist-

ance, and is not susceptible

to UV and moisturedegra-

dation. Single wall equip-

ment wire constructions

are available in 0.10 [.004]

(55/03XX 4 mil) and 0.15

[.006] (6 mil) wall thicknesses

for use inside black boxes

where flexibility and solder-

iron resistance make it a

wirewhich is veryeasy to

install reliably.

Both single and dual wall

insulated wires are available

in twisted pairs, triples, etc.,

and as shielded and jacket-

ed cables.

Physical Characteristics

Size and Weight

SPEC 55 wire provides one

of the most comprehensive

wiring product ranges for

aerospace users, with a

wide choice of conductor

sizes and insulation wall

thicknesses.The dual wall

airframe wire has an insula-

tion wall thickness of either

0.2 [.008] or 0.25 [.010] for

robustness in unprotected

harnesses and has excel-

lent wire to wire abrasion

properties.

The single wall equipment

wirehas a 0.15 [.006] wall

thickness for use inside

equipment and protected

harnesses. For high density,

interconnect wiring, the 450

volt 55M041X series of

equipment wirehas a nomi-

nal 0.1 [.004] wall and pro-

vides considerable weight

and size savings over other

comparable wires.

Handling

The excellent flexibility

and handleability makes

SPEC 55 the ideal wire to

install, both in new aircraft

and equipment and for

maintenance purposes. The

wire is easily stripped with

conventional tooling. The

insulation is readily marked

by hot stamp, ink jet or laser,

and can be potted without

pre-etching.

SPEC 55PC Wire and Cable

Insulation System

This product was originally

developed to meet Boeing’s

material standard BMS13-

48 for the 777 airliner.

SPEC 55PC provides light-

weight, compact insulation

that matches the proven

performance of our

SPEC 55 wire. Today, 55PC

is specified and utilized on

the majority of aerospace

platforms worldwide.

Tyco Electronics’ rigorous,

statistical-process-con-

trolled manufacturing has

produced Raychem wiring

that is rugged and versatile

enough for a wide range of

commercial and defense

aerospace applications,

including electronic hook-

ups in harsh, open airframe

environments.

SPEC 55PC wire and cable

systems featurean 8-mil air-

frame wire that is lighter and

smaller than typical 10-mil

wire, with little reduction in

key mechanical perform-

ance features. SPEC 55PC

wireoffers flame resistance

superior to FAA standards

and also resists scrape

abrasion, notch, propaga-

tion, cut-through, and

electrical arc tracking.

nMeets Boeing material

standard BMS 13-48.

nExceeds FAR 25 test

requirements for flame

resistance and smoke

density.

Environmental Performance Temperature Rating

SPEC 55 wire and cable is

rated for continuous opera-

tion from -65°C to +200°C

[-85°F to +392°F] and for

short periods at tempera-

tures as high as 400°C

[752°F].

Mechanical Performance

Radiation crosslinking of the

SPEC 55 insulation signifi-

cantly improves the follow-

ing mechanical character-

istics; scrape (sharp

edges), cross wire abrasion,

cut-through resistance and

creep resistance.

Solder Iron/Overload

Resistance

Radiation crosslinking

ensures that the insulation

resists melting at high

temperatures. As a result

SPEC 55 wireis resistant to

hot solder irons and current

overloads which would melt

most thermoplastic

insulations.

Chemical Resistance

SPEC 55 is unaffected by all

commonly used chemicals,

eg. fuels, hydraulic

fluids, defluxing agents,

cleaners, coolants and

de-icers. It also shows

excellent resistance to

weathering (UV, ozone,

pollutants, water).

Space Wire

SPEC 55 is available in

special versions suitable

for use in outer space

meeting both ESA and

NASA requirements for

outgassing.

Flammability

Special additives increase

the flame retardance of

SPEC 55 compared to unir-

radiated ETFE so that it

meets the latest high per-

formance tests, eg. BS

3G230 vertical test FAR 25.

Electrical Arc Tracking

Resistance

SPEC 55 insulation demon-

strates resistance to arc

tracking under both wet

and dry conditions at air-

craft system voltages.

Conductor Primary Wire Twisted Pair Shielded & Jacketed

Single Pair

55PC - Extra Light Weight Constructions

For applications where weight is critical, light weight tight tolerance conductors and insulations are available. These

are manufactured using statistical process control methods and achieve weights that are equal or lighter than the

equivalent polyimide/PTFE constructions.
