Silicone Wire for
Home & Kitchen Appliances
Internal leads for electric-heating appliances.
We start from flexible silicone single-core wire: fine-stranded tinned copper with silicone rubber insulation, 28 AWG to 2 AWG, rated −60 °C (−76°F) to +180 °C (356°F) continuous and +200 °C (392°F) short-term in fixed installation.
AT A GLANCE
Appliance wiring at a glance
Each appliance connection and the silicone wire we start from.
| Connection | Cable construction | Key point |
|---|---|---|
| Internal heating connections | Flexible silicone single-core wire | +180 °C (356°F) continuous; ventilate above +100 °C (212°F) |
| Internal equipment leads | Flexible silicone single-core wire, 28 AWG to 2 AWG | Outside diameter 1.2 mm to 12.5 mm |
| External cord and connector | Separate cable specification | Not covered by this wire |
CONNECTION TASKS
Home appliance wiring
This silicone single-core wire is for internal wiring of electric-heating equipment. It is not offered here for food contact or as an external appliance cord; the wire specification is not an appliance approval.
ASSEMBLY ROUTING
Internal equipment leads
Specify conductor size, insulation diameter, colour and cut length for the appliance drawing.
Confirmed with your quotation
SCOPE BOUNDARY
External cord and connector
If the requirement is an external supply cord or finished harness, provide its separate specification and applicable documentation.
Separate cable specification
SELECTION CHECKS
Operating conditions to specify
Include these conditions with your enquiry so we can select the right cable.
Appliance specification
The appliance, its target market and the exact wire style or standard required define the wire.
Local installation
Routing temperature, enclosure conditions, clearances and terminal dimensions set the installation limits.
Approval & acceptance
The wire specification is not an approval for the finished appliance.
