Q-Glass TW Fiberglass Twisted

Q-Glass Fiberglass twisted. Individual conductors are insulated with high strength fiberglass braid and twisted. Designed for continuous use in high temperature application requiring continuous range of up to 1300 Degrees F (704 Degrees C). Industrial application ranging from aluminum heat treatment to sensor manufacturing. This specific product provides an economical alternative to standard duplex fiberglass, especially in consumable application. Twisted singles can be customized to achieve higher performance in highly abrasive environments.
