OMEGA[®] duplex extension grade thermocouple wire performs continuously at temperatures to 105°C (220°F). The wire’s flexibility permits installation in conduit and wiring trays, and it is easily stripped by hand or using mechanical methods. Insulation is PVC. The wire is UL listed for Power Limited Tray Cable (PLTC) applications. 

_**Note:** Overbraiding wire invalidates UL rating._ 

## **Spool Pricing Guidelines** 

**Multiply 300 m or 1000' spool price by multiplier and round to the nearest dollar. Consult Sales for price quote.** 

7.5 m or 25'   = Price from Chart  x  0.0625 15 m or 50'   = Price from Chart x  0.1 30 m or 100' = Price from Chart x 0.175 60 m or 200' = Price from Chart x  0.3 150 m or 500' = Price from Chart x  0.5 300 m or 1000' = Price from Chart x 1.0
