Frequently Asked Questions
High-temperature, lightweight, and durable wires are essential for aerospace. Materials like nickel-plated copper, thermocouple alloys, and specialized insulations such as FEP, PFA, and fiberglass are commonly used to withstand extreme temperatures and harsh environments while minimizing weight.
Pelican Wire adheres to stringent quality control standards, including ISO 9001:2015 and ISO/IEC 17025:2017 accreditation. Our wires are engineered and manufactured to meet the rigorous demands of the aerospace industry, ensuring consistent performance and reliability in critical applications.
Our wires are used in a variety of aerospace applications, including de-icing systems, temperature sensors, avionics, and in-flight entertainment systems. We provide custom solutions tailored to the specific needs of each application.
Fluoropolymer insulations like PFA and FEP offer excellent resistance to high temperatures, chemicals, and abrasion, making them ideal for the demanding aerospace environment. They also have a low coefficient of friction, which makes them easier to install in tight spaces.
Thermocouple wire is used for temperature sensing, providing critical feedback for systems like engine monitoring and climate control. Resistance wire is used for heating applications, such as de-icing systems for wings and propellers.
Yes, we specialize in creating custom multi-conductor cables that can consolidate wiring, reduce weight, and improve the overall reliability of your aerospace system. We can combine different wire types and gauges into a single, jacketed cable.
Electromagnetic interference (EMI) can disrupt the sensitive electronic systems in an aircraft. EMI shielding, which we can incorporate into our custom cables, protects against this interference, ensuring the reliable operation of avionics and other critical systems.
We offer small minimum order quantities (MOQs) and rapid prototyping services to support our clients during the research and development phase. Our engineers can work with you to quickly iterate on designs and produce custom samples for testing.
We offer a wide range of high-temperature wires with operating temperatures up to 1200°C (2200°F). The specific temperature rating depends on the conductor and insulation materials used. Our engineers can help you select the right materials for your application.
Yes, we can provide custom wire and cable solutions that are designed to withstand the extreme temperatures, radiation, and vacuum of space. We use specialized materials and manufacturing processes to ensure the reliability of our products in these critical applications.
