Scope

This dual-layer, high-temperature transit wire utilizes the proven Exane® insulation and offers outstanding performance that makes it suitable for many applications where high-density cabling and harnessing are required. Besides offering size and weight advantages, these wires have excellent flame resistance, cut through, abrasion, cold flow, shrink back, notch propagation, and common chemicals. In addition, they strip and stripe easily, may be potted, and have low smoke characteristics. This wire should be considered for transit vehicle interior electronics equipment and other applications.
