M22759 wire
M22759 (SAE AS22759) wires are high-performance, medium and high-temperature hookup wires with
extruded PTFE or ETFE, or PTFE/polyimide tape insulators, and stranded conductors.
These wires are designed for severe-environment aerospace applications, such as engine controls and
SWAMP areas. Some types are available with highly abrasion-resistant insulation and / or high-strength
conductors for maximum performance under mechanical stresses.
Wire types with PTFE tape insulation are available with our unique Seamless Wrap PTFE tape insulation
(see page 54 for details and part numbers).

MIL-W-22759/11, /12 wire—extruded PTFE insulation

MIL-W-22759/11 and /12 wires have extruded PTFE
insulation for high-temperature applications where
the additional abrasion resistance of mineral-filled
PTFE insulation is not required. These wires are
especially well-suited in applications where smoke
emission, overload stability, and flammability are
major concerns.

marking, and striping; Standard tape wrapped wire ‘B’
• Accepts clear, permanent laser marking.
Because of its uniform cross section, Seamless Wrap is
superior to conventional wrapped tape in: Seamless Wrap insulation
• Consistent wall thickness; cuts clean and smooth
with no unraveling.
• Increased dielectric strength;
• Enhanced wet and dry arc propagation resistance.
By eliminating the mechanical “weak points” of seams in
conventional wrapped tapes, Seamless Wrap:
• Significantly improves abrasion resistance,
particularly wire-to-wire;
• Eliminates delaminating of sintered tape layers;
• Has enhanced crack resistance for use in SWAMP and
fire zone applications.
To order appropriate MIL DTL-22759 wires with
Seamless Wrap insulation, see the chart below.
