So what's the difference between /32 and /16 wire ?

The major difference between these two specifications of wire is the outer jacket, both /16 and /32 offer the same temp and voltage rating. Where these two differ are the types and amounts of Tefzel used.

M22759/16- Ethylene Tetrafluoroethylene (ETFE) 24 awg - 2/0 awg

• Slightly larger O.D over /32 wire by roughly 15%*
• Slightly heavier compared to /32 wire by roughly 20%*

M22759/32- Fluoropolymer Cross-linked Modified (ETFE)  30 awg -12 awg

• Slightly smaller O.D over /16 wire by roughly 15%*
• Slightly lighter compared to /16 wire by roughly 20%*

* Weight and O.D. comparisons based on 24 ga.

** Tinned coated copper
