  0.81 mm² cross-sectional area supports consistent current-carrying
  Rated to operate at up to 105°C for elevated-temperature tasks
  300V insulation rating suitable for low-voltage control circuits
  PVC sheath in Orange improves circuit identification and visibility
  Conforms to MIL-DTL-16878 and ISO 6722 for stringent applications

**Applications**

• Suitable for control panel internal wiring in automation systems
  Ideal for wiring looms in automotive requiring ISO 6722 compatibility
  Used for interconnections in industrial electronics and sensors
  Can be used for wiring in mechanical assemblies with space constraints

What is the conductor construction and how does it affect flexibility?

The conductor is tin-plated copper MADE from 16 strands, which increases pliability and reduces the risk of breakage under repeated bending.

How is the product supplied for continuous assembly processes?

It is available in various continuous lengths including long spools intended for high-volume harnessing and shorter reels for smaller production runs.

Which environmental regulations and hazardous substance limits does it meet?

Materials comply with RoHS2 and REACH restrictions with specified maximum control values for common restricted substances.

What insulation properties relate to handling and installation?

The PVC insulation provides flame-retardant behaviour and allows a minimum bending radius of 10 times the cable diameter for safe routing.
