Fluoropolymer Wire

Fluoropolymer AWM wire uses fluorinated polymer compounds — FEP, PTFE, and PFA — as the insulation material, providing a high combination of thermal performance, chemical resistance, and electrical insulation integrity within the AWM wire range. All three fluoropolymers are chemically inert, resistant to a wide range of industrial acids, alkalis, solvents, and fuels, and maintain their insulation properties at temperatures from −60°C up to 200°C or above. This makes fluoropolymer wire a common specification for internal wiring in chemical processing equipment, laboratory instruments, and semiconductor manufacturing equipment, and for applications where elevated temperature and chemical exposure occur together.

CableApex supplies fluoropolymer AWM wire as a UL Recognized Component — file on record — covering three styles, FEP (UL 1332), PTFE (UL 1659), and PFA (UL 10362), each with distinct processing characteristics and selection advantages. All three comply with RoHS and REACH, in the AWG ranges according to each UL style.

UL Style	Polymer	Voltage	Temperature	Selection note
UL 1332	FEP	300V AC	200°C	Melt-extruded with a smooth surface; the lower-cost entry point at 200°C / 300V
UL 1659	PTFE	600V AC	250°C	Selected where a 250°C / 600V rating and strong abrasion resistance are required
UL 10362	PFA	600V AC	250°C	Melt-processable at the same 250°C / 600V class as PTFE, with good flexibility

To request a quotation, send the UL style number, AWG size, voltage, colour, quantity, and a brief description of the application. Quotations are returned within 24 hours, and mixed-style or mixed-AWG orders are accepted on a single shipment.
