UL3288 XLPE Insulated Wire

UL3288 high-temp hook-up wire with XLPE insulation, UL-certified and rated 150°C/600V. Halogen-free, RoHS-compliant, and ideal for electronics, energy, HVAC, and power systems.


UL3288 XLPE Insulated Wire – 150°C / 600V Hook-Up Wire for High-Temperature & Halogen-Free Applications

UL3288 is a high-temperature, high-voltage hook-up wire insulated with cross-linked polyethylene (XLPE) and certified under UL AWM Style 3288. Rated for continuous use at 150°C and up to 600V, this wire delivers excellent thermal performance, dielectric strength, and chemical resistance—ideal for demanding applications in electronics, energy, HVAC, and power control systems.

Its halogen-free and RoHS-compliant insulation makes it a preferred choice for manufacturers prioritizing environmental safety and low-smoke flame behavior.
