Abrasion-Resistant Wire
Run power over rough surfaces—this wire has thick insulation that stands up to wear and tear. It’s flame rated, which means it meets requirements for preventing the spread of fire. Also known as hook-up wire.
Wire with braided aramid fiber outer and silicone rubber inner insulation is best for your most rugged applications, such as wiring inside a motor. Its outer layer protects the wire if it’s cut or struck. Meanwhile, its inner layer makes it flexible enough to bend in tight spots. It’s also known as silicone rubber motor lead (SRML) wire.

Even at 480° F—hotter than some industrial ovens—this wire’s insulation won’t melt.
Wire with a fiberglass outer and mica inner insulation is the common choice for steel mills, iron mills, and glass manufacturing. You may know it as MG wire. Wire with a silicone-coated outer insulation shields your skin from fiberglass particles when handling the wire.
