Silicone Wire with Fiberglass Braid

Providing Excellent Performance in High Temperature Applications
Silicone wires with fiberglass braid are single conductor, high temperature wires. These electronic hook-up wires are designed to replace wires with plastic or rubber insulation in high temperature applications.
The term silicone refers to the insulation jacket provided in these wires. The fiberglass braid is the outer covering, which protects the wire strands and insulation from high application temperatures. The braid also helps in protecting the wires from abrasions.
