FEATURESSil-A-BlendTM
lead wires are designed for application in electric and gas ranges, small
appliances, food service equipment, lighting fixtures, igniters, motors,
generators, and transformers. This product's unique construction consists of
a fiberglass reinforcement sandwiched between two layers of silicone rubber.
The net result is a durable high-temperature lead wire that is easily, and
cleanly, cut and stripped on automatic equipment without the dermatitis,
fraying, flowering or shrinkback associated with fiberglass braid.
Additionally, the specially formulated outer silicone jacket provides color
fastness and greatly enhances abrasion resistance.
