UL 3135 22 AWG Silicone Wire Overview
UL AWM Style 3135 is a single-conductor silicone rubber insulated wire construction, supplied by CableApex as a factory-direct manufacturer. This page focuses specifically on the 22 AWG configuration within Style 3135’s broader 26 AWG–12 AWG conductor range. The wire is rated 200°C and 600 Vac, with extruded silicone rubber (SR) insulation. This is a dedicated 22 AWG procurement page, distinct from our other UL 3135 gauge-specific pages.

22 AWG Solid or Stranded Conductor Options
UL Style 3135 covers a conductor range of 26 AWG through 12 AWG, solid or stranded; this page focuses specifically on the 22 AWG configuration. We do not publish strand count, strand diameter, conductor resistance, finished OD, or voltage-withstand data for 22 AWG or any AWG within this Style, as none of these are established by the Style-level record. Conductor material and finish are also not established at the Style level — this page does not describe UL 3135 as tinned copper, oxygen-free copper, or any specific plating or purity, and conductor material or plating should be specified when requesting a quotation.
30-Mil Minimum Average SR Insulation
The conductor is insulated with extruded silicone rubber at a minimum average thickness of 30 mils and a minimum thickness of 27 mils at any point. We use this UL terminology precisely — this is a minimum average thickness, not a nominal production dimension — and we do not calculate or publish a finished outside diameter from AWG and insulation thickness, as conductor geometry and manufacturing tolerances are not part of the confirmed technical basis for this page. The Style permits solid or stranded construction; this does not by itself establish a specific flexibility classification, and this page does not describe the wire as ultra-flexible, extremely flexible, or high-flex, and does not publish a bend radius or flex-cycle rating.

Totally Enclosed Appliance Internal Wiring
UL Style 3135’s confirmed use is internal wiring of appliances where totally enclosed — this qualifier is an essential part of the Style’s use statement and is preserved throughout this page rather than shortened to generic “internal wiring.” Appropriate application language includes totally enclosed appliance internal wiring, internal wiring within totally enclosed appliance constructions, and protected internal electrical connections where Style 3135 is specified. Where commercial lighting fixtures, heating appliances, or electronic modules are mentioned, they are presented only as possible end-equipment contexts subject to the applicable totally-enclosed internal-wiring requirement — this page does not describe the wire itself as a heating element, resistance heating wire, or heater coil; it is electrical internal wiring, not a heat-generating component. This page does not extend the use to building wiring, branch circuits, field wiring, tray cable, conduit cable, portable cord, external appliance supply cord, or exposed equipment wiring.
What UL 3135 Does and Does Not Specify
UL Style 3135 establishes the construction, rating, and insulation requirements described above. It does not establish a universal conductor material or plating, a specific flexibility classification, environmental resistance (UV, ozone, moisture, or industrial oil resistance), a finished outside diameter, conductor resistance, or a voltage-withstand test result. This page does not carry over any of these unsupported claims from older material — where such details matter to your application, they should be confirmed as part of a specific ordered construction rather than assumed as a Style-wide property.
22 AWG Procurement Considerations
Sourcing UL 3135 at 22 AWG typically involves confirming your required conductor construction (solid or stranded), conductor material or plating, insulation colour, and any dimensional or documentation requirement specific to your totally enclosed appliance application. We do not present technical advantages of 22 AWG over other Style 3135 gauges — the choice of AWG should be driven by your circuit’s current and design requirements, confirmed against the equipment specification.
What to Specify When Ordering UL 3135 22 AWG Wire
To provide an accurate quotation for UL 3135 22 AWG silicone wire, please specify:
- Confirmation of 22 AWG as the required gauge
- Solid or stranded conductor
- Conductor material or plating requirement
- Operating temperature
- Operating voltage
- Required finished OD or maximum routing dimension, if applicable
- Insulation colour
- Marking requirement
- Order quantity
- Packaging requirement
- UL documentation requirement, including RoHS / REACH if needed
- Appliance / equipment type
- Confirmation of the totally enclosed internal-wiring application
- Shipping destination
Send this information and we respond with a quotation within 12 business hours. Production lead time depends on the confirmed construction and order quantity, and shipping options and applicable Incoterms are confirmed during quotation according to destination.
UL Marking and Documentation
Qualifying UL AWM Style 3135 constructions can be supplied through the relevant qualified manufacturing scope for this Style. UL marking and documentation are confirmed according to the qualified Style 3135 construction supplied for the order and are not identical across every commercial variation. RoHS and REACH are separate regulatory frameworks from UL recognition; applicable RoHS / REACH documentation requirements can be confirmed according to the ordered construction.
