 M16878 (NEMA HP, MIL-W-16878) Mil-Spec Wire & Cable

Capable of operating at temperature extremes of -65°C to 260°C (-85°F to 500°F), M16878 wire will meet all your needs in almost any environment with a potential rating ranging from 250 to 5,000 volts root mean square (Vrms).

This unshielded, insulated wire is available in a wide variety of sizes and materials, and is offered with an optional braid and/or jacket. M16878 insulation is easy to strip from the conductor, leaving a clean contact surface for soldering or crimping.

We offer abrasion, chemical, and weather-resistant and low-smoke wire under this specification.

Types of conductors under this specification include:

  • Ethylene-propylene diene elastomer (EPDM)
  • Fluorinated ethylene propylene (FEP)
  • Polyolefin, cross-linked
  • Polyamide
  • Polyethylene
  • Polyvinyl chloride (PVC)
  • Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE)
  • Silicone rubber

M16878 wire is available from 32 to 0000 AWG in single-element, stranded, and fine stranded wires, depending on the size of wire needed.

Note: M16878 is also known as NEMA HP3 and MIL-DTL-16878, which supersedes MIL-W-16878.
