Magnet Wire Insulation Guide INSULATION CHARACTERISTICS

GENERAL APPLICATIONS

Plain Enamel, known as oleoresinous enamel, was one of the first film insulations developed more than 75 years ago and is still in use today in a variety of electronic components. Plain Enamel wires are manufactured to single-build dimensional standards. Available in 40-44 AWG.

Relays and coils. Avoid using in presence of synthetic solvents.

Formvar Enamel is made from vinyl acetal resins produced as a smooth uniform film. Formvar has excellent mechanical properties such as abrasion resistance and flexibility. The film will withstand excessive elongation without rupture. When stressed during winding, Formvar has a tendency to craze upon contact with solvents such as toluol, naphtha, xylol, etc. Therefore, it should be given an annealing preheat prior to varnish application. Formvar can be removed mechanically or chemically during terminal preparation.

Motors, random wound coils, oil filled and dry transformers, armature and generator winding where “tough” film may be required.

Bondable magnet wire is insulated copper wire with a superimposed film of thermoplastic bonding material. The heat or solvent sensitivity of this material makes possible the winding of coils of unusual shapes since the wire may be bonded turn-to-turn. To obtain specific dimensional data on Bondable wires, see pages 8 and 9.

Self-supporting coils, voice coils, encapsulated coils, relays, yoke coils.

Polyurethane-155 is a 155˚C thermal class solder strippable insulation produced primarily 30 AWG and finer with quick soldering characteristics at 390˚C.

Motors, R.F. coils, relays, encapsulated coils, ignition coils, solenoids, low voltage transformers, layer and precision wound coils.

Polyurethane Nylon-155 is similar to the 155˚C Polyurethane with an additional Nylon overcoat to improve the abrasion resistance and heat shock characteristics for coil and motor windings. Produced 10 AWG to 55 AWG, soldering temperatures are 430˚C for 10-23 AWG, and 390˚C for 24-55 AWG.

Appliance motors, relays, timer and clock coils, encapsulated coils, solenoids, toroid coils,random wound coils.

Polyurethane-180 combines the thermal properties of a class 180°C insulation, while offering low temperature solderability at 390°C (24 AWG and finer).

Automotive relays, ignition coils, transformers and solenoids.

Polyurethane Nylon-180 offers excellent abrasion resistance for ferrite core coils and transformers, while exhibiting high temperature thermal stress and low temperature solderability at 430°C (14-23 AWG ) and 390°C (24 AWG and finer).

Relays, pulse transformers, toroid coils, small appliance motors.

Polyester-imide magnet wire is insulated with a Class H modified polyester resin. It has excellent thermal endurance, solvent resistance and exhibits a low coefficient of friction to improve windability. It requires mechanical or chemical stripping.

Appliance and tool motors, continuous operation coils, subfractional instrument and servo motors solenoids.

Polyester Nylon is a film insulation with a modified polyester basecoat and a nylon topcoat. Typical of a dual coat construction, advantage is taken of the high thermal properties of the polyester and the mechanical properties of the nylon.

Fractional and integral horsepower motors, coils and relays, control and dry transformers, encapsulated coils, D.C. field coils.

Solderable Polyester magnet wire is an ester-imide insulated wire which solders at 470°C. Since thermoplastic flow values equal or exceed 280°C, the insulation has shown excellent promise in transfer molding applications.

Special transformer coils, automotive coils, electronic coils.

Solderable Polyester-Nylon magnet wire is a two-part insulation system in which ester-imide basecoat is overcoated with nylon. This wire solders at 455°C. The construction may be considered a substitute for applications where ester-imide insulation wire is used, with the added features of improved solvent resistance and improved windability.

Shaded-pole motor coils, special control coils, automotive coils.

Self-bonding polyester actually describes a number of possible constructions of polyester base insulation with a thermoplastic bond coat. The bond coat may be epoxy, polyester or polyamide. Keep in mind for design purposes that the addition of the bond coat does add one overall build level to the wire dimension. To obtain specific dimensional data on bondable wires, visit the MWS Wire website at mwswire.com, or use the MWS CD-ROM.

Television yoke coils, clutch and brake coils, helical and toroidal coils.

Both glass and dacron glass are a served filament on the magnet wire conductor. They are available as unvarnished or varnished with organic or silicone varnishes. The fibers may be served over bare conductor or over film constructions. The glass is a continuous filament glass yarn and the dacron glass is a combination of glass and polyester fibers. The advantage of the glass is its high resistance to overload burnout and the advantage of the dacron glass is its abrasion resistance and better flexibility than glass. The dacron glass can be purchased fused and unvarnished.

Dry transformers, Class B motors.

Polyester-200 is a modified theic-polyesterimide one-part system. It has high temperature thermal properties and good chemical resistance. Normally produced in sizes 34-56 AWG.

Motors, small coils, transformers.

Polyester-amide-imide magnet wire is a two-part insulation consisting of a modified polyester basecoat with a superimposed amide-imide outer coating. This wire exhibits exceptional windability, heat shock resistance, and ability to withstand overloads. Chemical resistance to most solvents and insulating varnishes is extremely good. It is not softened by refrigerants and extractions are essentially zero.

Fractional and integral horsepower motors (hermetic and open), automotive and hand tool armatures, dry type transformers.

For inverter duty applications, this insulation is designed for use in motors that may be subjected to high voltage spikes. Available in sizes 14-30 AWG.

Rotating Machines, Fractional and Integral HP Motors, Hermetic Motors, DC Motors, Power Tools, Dry Transformers, Electronic coils.

Teflon** has high heat resistance and excellent resistance to most solvents, acids and corrosive chemicals and a high dielectric constant.

Miniature rotating components and windings where severe environments are encountered.

ML is a film insulation made of polyimide resins. It is a Class 240°C thermal rated insulation with exceptional resistance to chemical solvents and burnout. The outstanding thermoplastic flow of over 400°C and its ability to withstand excessive overloads extends the use of magnet wire in extreme conditions. ML is unaffected by prolonged exposure to varnish solvents and is compatible with virtually all systems.

Fractional and integral horsepower motors, high temperature continuous duty coils and relays, hermetic and sealed units, heavy-duty hand tool motors, encapsulated coils.

Bondable Magnet Wire Bondable magnet wire, also referred to as self-bonding magnet wire, is film insulated wire top-coated with a thermoplastic adhesive. When activated, the thermoplastic bonds turn to turn windings to produce self-supporting coils or coils of unusual or difficult configuration. Use of bondable magnet wire may offer advantages over conventional magnet wire in certain winding applications, eliminating the need for bobbins as well as taping or varnishing steps. Activation of the bondcoat may be achieved with either heat, or in some cases solvent, or a combination of the two. Although bondcoats may be added to any conventional film, consideration should be given to the resoftening temperature of the adhesive in that it may not withstand the operating temperature of higher rated primary insulations.

Bonding Methods Solvent Bonding Some bondcoats can be activated by applying certain solvents during or after the coil winding process. Application of the solvent, usually via saturated wick during winding, causes the bondcoat to reflow. The process requires the use of a fixture to hold the coil in place while the solvent is drying. Once dry, the coil should be heated to dry off any residual solvent which might cause long-term coil failure, as well as to complete the bonding process. Heat Bonding All bondcoats can be heat bonded, either by oven-heating or by directing hot air on to the wire during winding. In either case, the principle is to heat the winding slightly above the bondcoat’s reflow temperature and then cool it below its rated bond strength temperature. Oven bonding is accomplished by heating the coil for a period of time sufficient to obtain uniform heating throughout the winding, followed by a cooling cycle. Heating time is generally 10 to 30 minutes, depending on the size of the winding. Disadvantages of oven bonding are the longer bonding time as well as the potential need for many winding fixtures. Hot air bonding, though done typically at slower winding speed, has the advantage of the elimination of a secondary bonding operation. This method is cost effective and usually associated with low temperature bondcoats and wire sizes smaller than 34 gauge. Resistance Bonding Resistance bonding is done by applying electric current to the winding to electrically heat it to the proper bond temperature. Bonding voltage and time are dependent on wire size and coil design, and therefore will need to be developed experimentally for each specific application. This method has the advantages of being quick and generating uniform heat distribution. It is typically used for wire sizes heavier than 34 gauge.

Multifilar Magnet Wire ®

Parallel bonded magnet wire for more consistent capacitance and impedance characteristics. Where constant parallel alignment of multiple strands is an advantage, Multifilar® magnet wire is the right choice. Its parallel-bonded, color-coded construction offers benefits for many applications. Engineers should specify Multifilar® when concerned with space, weight, and reliability. Where consistent capacitance and impedance characteristics are required, Mulifilar magnet wire outperforms windings using two separate magnet wires. Production users benefit from increased layer winding speeds, tighter windings that deliver more power in less space, reduced

labor and handling. Color coding assists in conductor identification and reduces termination errors. MWS custom manufactures Multifilar® magnet wire to assure flat, parallel construction in sizes AWG 16 and finer, and up to 20 conductors wide in some sizes. Nine insulation colors are offered in polyurethane and polynylon films. Red, green and natural are standard for all film types. Consult the chart on the next page for available film insulations and colors.

Litz Wire The term “litz wire” is derived from the German word litzendraht, meaning “woven wire.” Generally defined, it is a wire constructed of individually film-insulated wires bunched or braided together in a uniform pattern of twists and length of lay. The multistrand configuration minimizes the power losses otherwise encountered in a solid conductor due to the “skin effect,” or the tendency of radio frequency current to be concentrated at the surface of the conductor. In order to counteract this effect, it is necessary to increase the amount of surface area without appreciably increasing the size of the conductor. It is also essential to position each individual strand in the litz construction in a uniform pattern, moving from the center to the outside and back in a given length. Even properly constructed litz wires will exhibit some skin effect due to the limitations of stranding. Wires intended for higher frequency ranges require more strands of a finer gauge size than litz wires of equal cross-sectional area, but composed of fewer and larger strands. Polyurethane and Polyurethane Nylon are the films most often used for insulating individual strands because of their low electrical losses and their solderability. Other insulations shown on pages 2 and 3 can also be used. Litz wires are generally further insulated with a single or double wrap or serving of a textile — typically nylon — but are also available unserved. The data that follows covers a broad range of sizes but is not intended to represent all possible constructions available. Inquire as to particular litz wire constructions and allow us to provide you with wire to meet your specifications. NUMBER OF STRANDS

Metering dies are used to apply smooth, concentric film coats to wires sizes AWG 30 and heavier.

This specially designed machine draws precious metals to ultra-fine sizes in standard and custom diameters and tempers.

MWS produces custom round, square, rectangular, ribbon, Multifilar®, Twistite™ and Microsquare™ wires in a wellequipped, fully permitted manufacturing facility. Products offered include film insulated wire conforming to NEMA MW 1000 and IEC 60317 in temperature classes 105 to 240˚C, from single through quadruple film builds. Low minimums, quick deliveries and top quality are our standards.

A MAG vertical oven enamel coats round, square and rectangular wire and is suitable for both small quantity and high production runs.

In-line drawing machines can be utilized on any enameling oven, enabling production efficiencies as well as excellent bare wire quality.

Twistite™ magnet wire, up to 50 twists per inch, is produced for numerous electronic applications, utilizing a wide range of conductor materials, insulations and colors. One or two layers of textile yarn can be continuously applied to litz wire on a computer-controlled, dual-head highspeed serving machine.

Continuous in-line diameter measurement provides effective quality assurance on high speed enameling lines. The data can be converted into reports that record the minimum, maximum and average dimensions, and the process capability for a given production run.

Ribbon and Flat Products

Precious metal rolling mill custom-built and specifically designed for fabrication of gold, silver, and platinum ribbon. Dimensional tolerances as tight as .00015".

MWS supplies three basic types of flat conductors: ribbon (flat wire), strip, and foil or sheet. All three products are produced in a series of rolling processes, and are supplied with round, radial, or sharp-edge constructions. Ribbon Normally produced from round wire in a single or multiple pass rolling process, ribbon products range in size from thicknesses as small as .0005", and widths as large as .100". Thickness tolerances are as tight as ±.00015", and width tolerances are as tight as ±.0005". Ribbon products usually are supplied with rounded edges, on spools that are paper sectioned to enhance despooling. Strip Generally speaking, strip products range from thicknesses of .005", with widths from .125" to 2". Radial or sharp edges are available, with material packaged in coils or on spools. Foil or Sheet Produced after rolling, by a shearing or slitting process, foil or sheet is supplied in widths from 2" to 12". Thicknesses can range from .001" to .020". The slit edge is sharp and may require deburring for certain applications.

Certified OFHC Copper (UNS C10100) This is an unalloyed, high purity copper that has excellent forming and brazing characteristics, as well as resistance to hydrogen embrittlement at elevated temperatures. It has good solderability and corrosion resistance, and may be used in any high current application. Both grades of OFHC copper are available in round and shaped wire and may be substituted for ETP copper wherever optimal properties of copper are desired. OFHC Copper (UNS 10200) OFHC copper has 99.95% minimum copper (silver counted as copper) and is produced by converting cathodes in a continuous casting and rolling process into copper rod. Typical uses include bus bars or any electrical conductor, and it may be specified as a special magnet wire conductor. ETP Copper (UNS C11000) Electrolytic tough pitch copper is intentionally alloyed with oxygen to achieve the best combination of conductivity, capacity for being cold worked, and economy. This is the most widely used copper for wire conductors and is available in round, square and rectangular shapes. Zirconium Copper (UNS C15000) This copper alloy exhibits high conductivity, excellent solderability, and good strength. Unlike ETP and the OFHC coppers, zirconium copper resists softening at higher temperatures. Typical applications include switches, high current interconnects, terminal pins, welding tips, and other applications where high temperatures exist. Beryllium Copper (UNS C17200) This alloy is characterized by very high strength and good electrical conductivity. Normally supplied in age-hardenable tempers, beryllium copper has good to excellent cold workability. This alloy is available as bare wire or it can be film insulated. Typical uses include switch parts, springs, fuse clips, connectors, and contacts. Cartridge Brass (UNS 26000) Cartridge brass has good conductivity and strength, but poor solderability due to its high zinc content. This copper alloy is widely used for cold-headed products such as machine and wood screws, rivets, and fasteners. It may also be used as an economical spring material. Phosphor Bronze This alloy is widely used for most types of springs because of its high strength and resistance to corrosion and fatigue. It is also used in switches, relays, contacts, and fasteners.

EC Aluminum Wire Data Aluminum 1350, also referred to as EC (electrical conductor) aluminum, is the primary alloy utilized in aluminum magnet wire. Its combination of light weight, high thermal conductivity, and high mass electrical conductivity (more than twice that of copper, per pound), make it an ideal alternative to copper for certain winding applications. Most film insulations are available on round aluminum wire. For insulation data, see pages 2 and 3. For square aluminum wire data, see page 7. DIAMETER (INCHES)

Properties of Aluminum Alloys Aluminum’s unique combination of properties make it a highly versatile material when alloyed with various metals. Besides light weight, characteristics of aluminum alloys include excellent workability and inherent corrosion resistance due to the inert oxide coat that forms directly after exposure to air. Many alloys in the 1000 through 5000 series are non-heat-treatable, their strength depending on the amount of cold working done. In the case of 5056 alloy, the addition of magnesium as the principal alloying agent increases its initial tensile strength. Alloy 6061 is a heat-treatable alloy supplied in annealed or strain hardened tempers. The end user may achieve maximum tensile strength through a multi-step thermal treatment.

Mechanical Alloys When selecting wire for mechanical applications there are four classifications from which to choose a specific material or alloy. They are: nickel base lockwires, carbon steels, stainless steels and superalloys. A three-part evaluation procedure is recommended: 1) initial screening based on temperature and corrosion requirements; 2) analysis of physical properties; and 3) final screening on the basis of specific properties, material, and forming costs.

Copper Clad Aluminum and Other Clad Metals Clad metals are two distinct metals or alloys that are metallurgically bonded together so that the optimum combination of functional properties is achieved. Copper Clad Aluminum (CCA) is an electrical conductor with a sleeve of copper bonded to a solid aluminum core. The composite wire is uniquely suited to electrical applications where weight to conductivity issues are critical. The copper makes up either 10% or 15% of the cross sectional area of the wire and assures excellent solderability. AC conductivity at frequencies greater than 5 MHz is equal to solid copper. CCA is manufactured in accordance with the requirements of ASTM B-566. Film insulations are available on CCA wire. For insulation data, see pages 2 and 3.
