M22759/16-22-36 ORANGE/BLUE BTF STRIPE

MIL-W-22759/16 MIL-Spec Wire — 22 AWG, Orange/Blue BTF Stripe

The MIL-W-22759/16 22 AWG Orange/Blue BTF Stripe — SKU: M22759/16-22-36-PRSP is a MIL-W-22759/16 specification silver-plated copper conductor wire with PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene) insulation, featuring an Orange base with a Blue spiral stripe for circuit identification in professional motorsport, aerospace, and high-performance vehicle harness builds. Supplied on a pull-spool for professional workshop use.

Wire Gauge — 22 AWG (0.33 mm²)

At 22 AWG, this is a fine-gauge wire suited to low-current signal circuits, sensor interfaces, data bus wiring, and other applications where minimising wire weight and bundle diameter is important. It is commonly used in ECU sub-harnesses, high-density connector assemblies, and sensor wiring where a large number of circuits must be accommodated within a compact harness cross-section.

Insulation and Conductor — MIL-W-22759/16

M22759/16 uses silver-plated copper conductors with PTFE insulation — a widely used MIL-spec wire in professional motorsport, aerospace, and high-performance wiring applications. PTFE insulation is chemically resistant to fuel, oil, brake fluid, and coolant, and withstands sustained high-temperature operation up to +200°C. The silver-plated conductor reduces contact resistance at termination points and improves long-term conductivity reliability.

Orange/Blue BTF Stripe — Colour Identification

This wire features an Orange base with a Blue spiral stripe. The BTF (Braid Through Fill) stripe is woven through the full insulation wall rather than printed or coated on the surface — making it permanent and resistant to peeling, fading, or abrasion throughout the wire’s service life. The Orange/Blue combination provides a distinct colour identification within an orange-base wire group, differentiating this wire from Orange/Black and other orange-base stripes running in the same harness section.
