UL758 wire manufacturer & supplier
UL was founded in 1894. The UL Mark is a globally recognized product safety mark and one of the basic bases for measuring whether a product meets North American market access requirements.
UL high temperature cable refers to the Underwriters Laboratories (Underwriters Laboratories, UL) certified cable, UL is an independent third-party safety science company, specializing in product safety testing and certification. UL cables in the design, manufacture and performance of UL must comply with the safety standards set by UL, to ensure that the cable in a variety of applications can work safely and reliably. UL’s conductor specification for AWG, that is, American Wire Gauge, the Chinese meaning is “American Wire Gauge”. UL standard, the common temperature resistance level is 60℃, 70 ℃, 80 ℃, 90 ℃, 105 ℃, 125 ℃, 150 ℃, 200 ℃, 250℃. UL cable design, manufacture and performance must comply with UL safety standards, to ensure that the cable in a variety of applications can be safe and reliable work, UL certified cables are widely used in: locomotives, subways, light rail, construction, oil and gas, marine, medical, robotics, machine tools, transmission systems, motors and servo systems, high and low temperatures, and other environments, in the world has a good customer reputation.

UL 758 High temperature electronic wire
UL 758 is an important standard for flexible cords and wires for household and commercial appliances. UL 758 cables and wires are rated for minimum voltages from 30V to 1000kV a.c. and from 3kV d.c. and cover low, medium, and high voltage cables. The conductor sizes covered by UL 758 are measured in the U.S. imperial system and range from 50AWG to 2000kcmill. The standard covers copper and aluminum conductor cables (and alternative fillers such as fiber and nickel) as well as fiber optic cables.
UL 758 High Temperature Cable Product Applications
Conforms to ANSI/UL 758 & CEC Part II and is intended for factory-installed wiring only. It can be used as an internal connection within appliances as well as other equipment, as an external connecting wire, or further processed as an element of a multi-core cable.

Meets UL1581 test standards
In the U.S. market, UL1581 Concerned Flammability is probably the most widely used standard for evaluating the flammability performance of wire and cable. It is used to evaluate the ability of cables to extinguish after being ignited and is generally categorized into vertical and horizontal burning. It determines the flame retardancy rating of a wire or cable by simulating the wire or cable’s burning behavior in a flame.Tests for UL1581 include tests on individual wires or cables, as well as tests on bundled wires or cables.
Wire and Cable UL1581 Flammability Test - Burning Methods
VW-1: Vertical Flammability Test (UL Wire Flammability Rating);
FT1: Vertical Flame Test;
FT2: horizontal burning test;
FT4: vertical burning test;
FT6: Horizontal Flame and Smoke Test (The FT class of flammability is the CSA standard for wire flammability rating);
Among the above classes: VW-1 and FT1 are of the same class, FT2 has the lowest class, and each flame retardant class is FT6, FT4, VW-1, FT1, FT2 in order.
Although VW-1 and FT1 are the same grade, VW-1 is stricter than FT1.
Criteria for determination
1. The burn markers (kraft paper) must not be charred by more than 25%;
2. five 15-second burns must not be renewed for more than 60 seconds;
3. Burning drops must not ignite the cotton;
VW-1 is required to meet 1.2.3, FT1 is required to meet 1.2 only.
