Overbraids:
All above thermocouple and extension wire also can be finished with a metal overbraid to give added protection from abrasion and mechanical damage.
Stranded Overbraids:
- Stainless Steel(SSB)
- Tinned Copper (TCB)
Please add ¡°SSB¡± or ¡°TCB¡± to the Order No., such as ¡°JX-FB-FB-SSB-20S¡±, it means Type JX, 20AWG, Stranded, Conductor insulation: Fiber-glass, Overall insulation: Fiber-glass, Overbraid: Stainless steel. |
