Tyco Electronics Latest Commercial Wire Combines Increased Flexibility with Exceptional Durability



Raychem FlexLite MT Wire

HARRISBURG, Pa - September 7, 2005 - Tyco Electronics has introduced the next member of its Raychem FlexLite commercial wire family, FlexLite MT wire.

FlexLite MT hookup wire, available in a range of 10-28 (AWG) complements previous offerings featuring a tough thin-wall insulation. With an average wall thickness of 6 mils (0.15mm), FlexLite MT wire (UL style 10916) has a UL rated operating temperature of up to 150 degrees C, and is suitable for general purpose use, including appliance, electronics, and electrical equipment that require a 600V rating.

As today's applications become increasingly more compact and portable, FlexLite MT wire is designed to provide a lightweight solution, as well as excellent mechanical and chemical resistance by using a modified fluoropolymer insulation. This insulation also makes the wire easy to handle and compatible with automated stripping and terminating equipment.

In order to better meet consumer specifications, in addition to the standard tin plated copper conductor construction, FlexLite MT commercial wire can be made with other conductors upon request and it is available in all colors.
