Product Overview
Single-conductor wire manufactured by TE Connectivity under standard M22759/32-16-9 (SAE AS22759/32). Built with 16 AWG stranded tin-coated copper conductor (19 strands of 29 AWG) insulated with single-wall radiation-crosslinked modified ethylene-tetrafluoroethylene (XL-ETFE). Rated for 600 volts RMS and operating temperatures from -65°C to +150°C. Standard white insulation color (MIL-STD-681 color code 9).
Key Features
- 16 AWG tin-plated copper conductor with 19/29 stranding for dependable flexibility and termination
- Radiation-crosslinked ETFE (Spec 55) single-wall insulation resistant to cut-through, abrasion, and common chemicals
- Rated for 600V RMS service up to 150°C continuous operating temperature
- Continuous 440-foot spool length as documented on distributor intake label
- Full continuous green surface print along white insulation: M22759/32-16 5U473 REV B
Applications
- Routing airframe power leads and instrument runs in high-vibration avionics bays
- Wiring motorsport engine harnesses and dash power distribution modules where thin-wall chemical resistance saves weight
- Rigging marine switch panels and battery-to-breaker DC feeds exposed to condensation or fuel vapors
- Building clean custom test racks, robotics harnesses, and high-current power supplies on the workbench
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between M22759/32 and standard automotive hook-up wire?
M22759/32 utilizes radiation-crosslinked ETFE (Tefzel) insulation rather than PVC or cross-linked polyethylene (XLPE). This delivers a thinner, lighter wall thickness with high cut-through, abrasion, and thermal resistance up to 150°C, making it standard for aerospace and motorsport harness builds.
Can this wire be soldered or crimped?
Yes. The stranded tin-coated copper conductors wet easily with standard solder and crimp securely into contacts such as Deutsch, Amphenol, and standard barrel terminals.
What do the numbers in M22759/32-16-9 indicate?
M22759/32 designates the slash sheet specification (single-wall crosslinked ETFE over tin-plated copper), 16 designates the wire gauge size (16 AWG), and 9 indicates white insulation under standard color coding.
Tough crosslinked insulation holds up against hot engine bays, solvent spills, and sharp chassis edges where standard wire jackets fail. Unspool what you need for the run and terminate with confidence.
