Class 240 Polyimide Flat Copper Magnet Wire is a high-performance magnet wire designed for applications requiring exceptional thermal endurance and durability. With a thermal class rating of 240°C, this wire features a polyimide insulation, providing excellent heat resistance, chemical stability, and mechanical strength.
Advantages:
The flat copper form enhances space utilization and conductivity, making it ideal for compact, high-efficiency designs.
Insulating Material
The coating is based on aromatic polyimide resins
The insulation layer consists of one or two layers of polyimide film tape, which is coated on one or both sides with a suitable adhesive, such as fluorinated ethylene propylene. After winding, the film tape can be sintered to form a continuous, bonded sheath.
Class 240 Polyimide Flat Copper Magnet Wire is mainly used in electrical equipment that requires long-term exposure to high temperatures or special environmental conditions.
Transformers
Motors
Other Electromagnetic Coils: For devices like relays, sensors, and various induction devices, etc.
Special Environments: In settings with high temperatures, high humidity, or chemical corrosion—such as industrial automation and chemical processing equipment
