UL1015 machine tool wire (MTW) is a type of hook-up wire that consists of a tinned copper conductor insulated with a PVC jacket. It is rated for up to 600V and 105°C (221°F). The overall diameters of the wire in this category range from 0.141"- 0.088" (14–24 AWG). If you are looking for thinner gauges of 600-volt PVC wire, check out our MIL-W-16878/1.
What is MTW Wire (Machine Tool Wire)?
MTW is a single-conductor wire with a PVC coating and 600-volt rating; it is a type of hook-up wire, or lead wire, often used for wiring machine tools, hence its name.
What is UL1015 Wire?
UL1015 is another way to refer to machine tool wire, as it’s the UL Standard for the PVC coated, 600-volt wire described above.
Any wire type starting with “UL” meets standards set out by Underwriters Laboratories, a globally recognized company. This wire is also RoHS compliant.
Common Applications
600-volt wire, such as our UL1015 machine tool wire, has a wide range of uses in addition to wiring machine tools. It has many internal wiring applications and is commonly found in household appliances and HVAC applications, control panels, meters, electronics, switchboards, and more.
