Platinum Wire
- Hardness: Rockwell B97 (Medium)
99.95% pure, this platinum wire is used for applications that require a soft material that resists corrosion and oxidation and has a high melting point. This wire allows heat and electricity to pass and resists oxide buildup, making it ideal for thermocouple probes, which require accurate readings even at high temperatures. Soft enough to create a good seal between two flanges, it's also used to make high-vacuum O-rings. Platinum's softness means it won't damage the flanges, so they can be used again. The high melting point of this wire makes it a better choice for sealing heated flanges than other materials such as gold.

Coated Small-Diameter Braided Wire—Not for Lifting
The plastic coating protects this braided wire from abrasion. Made of 18-8 stainless steel, this wire rope has good corrosion resistance. This wire rope provides a good balance of abrasion resistance and flexibility.
Strand core are more crush resistant than fiber core.
Note: When attaching fittings to coated wire rope, the coating must be removed from the installation area.
Chemical-Resistant Coated Small-Diameter Braided Wire—Not for Lifting
For use in the most demanding environments, the FEP (fluorinated ethylene propylene) coating on this braided wire has excellent chemical and weather resistance. Made of 18-8 stainless steel, this wire rope has good corrosion resistance. This wire rope provides a good balance of abrasion resistance and flexibility.
Note: When attaching fittings to coated wire rope, the coating must be removed from the installation area.
