Shielded:

All above thermocouple and extension wire can be finished with a shield (Stainless steel-SSB / Aluminum -AL/ Copper-Cu), If you need the wire with a shield, please add “SSB” or “AL” or “CU” to the Order No., such as “JX-PVC-SSB-PVC-20S”, it means Type JX, 20AWG, Stranded, Conductor insulation: PVC, Metal shielded: Stainless steel, Overall insulation: PVC.

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-PVC-PVC-SSB-20S”, it means Type JX, 20AWG, Stranded, Conductor insulation: PVC, Overall insulation: PVC, Overbraid: Stainless steel.
