The MIL-W-16878/12 (NEMA HP-4 Type KK) is a heavy-wall high temp wire engineered for high-voltage, high-temperature industrial applications. Featuring FEP insulation and silver-plated copper conductors, this 1000V-rated wire delivers exceptional dielectric strength, chemical resistance, and thermal stability across a -60°C to 200°C operating range. Designed to meet rigorous defense specifications, it is the go-to choice for power distribution, motor leads, and control circuits in harsh environments where standard 600V wires fall short.
1000V Heavy-Wall Rating: Thick-wall FEP insulation (0.016") provides the dielectric strength required for high-voltage power distribution and heavy-duty industrial circuits.
200°C High-Temp Performance: Maintains flexibility and electrical integrity in extreme heat, suitable for continuous operation in high-temperature industrial environments.
Superior Chemical & UV Resistance: FEP insulation withstands exposure to acids, alkalis, solvents, and prolonged UV radiation — ideal for chemical plants, offshore platforms, and outdoor installations.
Silver-Plated Copper Conductors: Excellent conductivity, solderability, and oxidation resistance for reliable terminations in demanding applications.
Flame Retardant & Self-Extinguishing: Inherently non-flammable FEP material meets critical fire safety requirements for industrial and marine wiring.
Moisture-Proof Construction: Seamless extruded insulation prevents moisture ingress, protecting conductor integrity in high-humidity or submerged environments.

What makes this Mil-W-16878/12 wire suitable for 1000V applications?
The heavy-wall FEP insulation (0.016") provides superior dielectric strength compared to medium-wall variants, allowing safe operation at 1000V AC. This makes it ideal for high-voltage power distribution where standard 600V wires cannot meet voltage requirements.
Can this high temp wire operate continuously at 200°C?
Yes. The FEP insulation is rated for continuous operation at up to 200°C, maintaining flexibility and electrical performance at high temperatures. It also remains flexible down to -60°C, making it suitable for extreme temperature cycling.
Is silver-plated copper necessary, or can I use tin-plated?
Silver-plated copper is the standard for this wire, offering optimal conductivity, solderability, and oxidation resistance — especially important for high-voltage terminations. Tin-plated copper is available as a cost-effective alternative for applications where extreme temperature performance is less critical.
Can this M16878/12 wire be used in submerged or underwater applications?
Yes. The seamless extruded FEP insulation provides excellent moisture barrier properties, and the silver-plated copper conductor resists corrosion in wet environments. It is suitable for submerged sensors, underwater instrumentation, and marine applications.
Do you offer free samples for evaluation?
Yes. We provide free samples in standard AWG sizes and colors so your engineering team can evaluate dielectric strength, chemical resistance, and termination quality before placing a bulk order. Contact us with your specifications to request samples.
