Quick Overview
Alpha Wire's new EcoWire™ is the latest innovation in hook-up wire. A true engineering breakthrough, EcoWire™ achieves increased performance in a wire that is fully recyclable. EcoWire™ derives its advantage from its unique insulation, a modified polyphenylene ether (mPPE) thermoplastic. mPPE-based insulation is non-halogenated and contains no heavy metal pigments, allowing it to help manufacturers meet Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) requirements. In addition to its ecological benefits, EcoWire™ brings many performance advantages, including better dielectric strength, wide temperature range that meets VW-1, low specific gravity, more durable with up to 10x better abrasion and pinch resistance, up to 45% smaller diameter, up to 40% lighter and fully recyclable.
