EXRAD® 180 Powertrain Metric Thinwall 150C

EXRAD® 180 is a high performance wire which meets the requirements of ISO 6722-1 Class D thin wall wire.  It is an irradiation cross-linked fluoropolymer with impressive properties at a lower price. EXRAD 180 is rated at 175°C, but it survives temperatures to 250°C and higher for short periods of time. It is safer in overload conditions because it will not melt.

EXRAD 180 creates opportunities to eliminate unnecessary and expensive convolute tubing, tapes and heat shields that protect inferior wire systems. EXRAD 180 meets or exceeds the ISO 6722-1 standards that are commonly used in Europe and now in use in North American vehicles. It performs very well high-temperature fluid conditions in transmissions and engines

EXRAD180 processes very well on automated high speed cut and strip equipment. The end result is an automotive wire ideally suited to applications where heat protection, long life and less expensive wiring harnesses are required.
