Machine tool wire, also known as appliance wiring material or thermoplastic equipment wire, is used for general purpose wiring, machine tools, air conditioning equipment, appliances, and control cabinets and circuits.
Single conductors are stranded, annealed, tin coated or uncoated copper.
Conductors are insulated with a concentrically applied PVC (polyvinyl chloride).
Print legends on the wire include the manufacturer, conductor size, voltage rating, UL symbol (if applicable) and type designation. Standard length spools are 500 or 2500 feet.
