8 AWG High Temp TGGT Wire - 250C

“The industry standard for extreme heat environmentsengineered with high-performance PTFE and glass shielding for maximum reliability in temperatures up to 250C.”

Why Professionals Choose TGGT High-Temp Wire

The 8 AWG TGGT wire is a specialized high-temperature conductor designed for environments where standard silicone or XLPE insulation would melt or fail. It is the primary choice for internal wiring in commercial ovens, industrial heaters, and aerospace equipment. By combining PTFE (Teflon) tapes with a double layer of glass braiding, TGGT offers a unique combination of chemical resistance and extreme thermal stability.

• 250C Thermal Performance:Engineered to operate continuously in environments reaching 482F, making it the industry standard for commercial cooking and heating equipment.

• Nickel-Coated Copper Conductor:Features 2% nickel plating per ASTM B355 to prevent oxidation and maintain electrical integrity at temperatures where standard tin-plated copper would degrade.

• Triple-Layer Shielding:Features PTFE tape insulation covered by a glass yarn braid and an overall fiberglass jacket, offering a rugged defense against both extreme heat and mechanical wear.

• Superior Chemical Resistance:The PTFE component provides an excellent barrier against oils, solvents, and industrial chemicals, preventing insulation breakdown in harsh manufacturing zones.
