UL1213 PTFE cable | Nickel-Plated Wire | High-temperature Hook-Up Wire
UL1213 PTFE Insulated Nickel-Plated Wire features nickel-plated copper conductors designed for elevated-temperature applications up to 200°C. The nickel coating provides oxidation and corrosion protection in aggressive environments where standard tin-plated copper degrades. Standard strandings range from 36AWG through 16AWG, available in both solid and high-flex concentric stranded constructions.
PTFE cable using thin-walled extruded polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) insulation maintain high dielectric strength, low dielectric constant, and chemical inertness throughout the entire operating temperature range (-65°C to+200°C). The thin-walled insulation design minimizes the overall diameter and weight of the cable, while also possessing acid, alkali, solvent, and fuel resistance characteristics.

Production process
Each production batch undergoes continuous size monitoring and dielectric verification:
- Concentricity Control: Extrusion tooling is monitored to maintain high insulation concentricity, ensuring consistent wall thickness and preventing die-cutting during automated wire stripping.
- In-Line Spark Testing: 100% of finished wire passes through in-line high-voltage spark testing prior to spooling to verify insulation continuity.
- Solderability & Thermal Aging: Nickel plating provides corrosion resistance and thermal stability, preventing copper conductor oxidation during prolonged exposure to temperatures near 200°C.

FAQ
Q: What is the main benefit of choosing a nickel-plated conductor over silver-plated or tin-plated copper for UL1213 wire?
A: Nickel-plated copper provides superior resistance to thermal oxidation and chemical corrosion at elevated temperatures. Unlike silver-plating, which can suffer from the "red plague" phenomenon in humid environments, or tin-plating, which melts at higher temperatures, nickel maintains high structural and electrical integrity in harsh industrial and aerospace environments.
Q: What is your Minimum Order Quantity (MOQ) and lead time?
A: For stock items, there is no MOQ. For customized products, the minimum order quantity varies depending on the wire gauge and conductor type. The production delivery cycle is generally 7-15 working days.
Q: How does the thin-wall PTFE insulation benefit high-density electronic assemblies?
A: UL1213 features an ultra-thin insulation wall (typically about 0.006 inches/0.15mm). This drastically reduces the overall outer diameter (OD) and cable weight, allowing maximum space savings and flexible routing inside compact enclosures, high-density connectors, and delicate instruments.
Q: Are you a direct wire and cable manufacturer?
A: Yes, Zhejiang IRONFLON Wire & Cable Co., Ltd. is a specialized manufacturer of high-temperature fluoroplastic insulated wires with complete control over raw materials, extrusion processing, testing, and packaging.
Q: Do you offer custom color and sizing options?
A: Yes, we support custom AWG sizes (36–16AWG), multi-color insulation, and custom cutting/stripping options according to your drawings.
