M22759/16 Tefzel Wire — 22 AWG, Green/Gray Stripe
The M22759/16-22-58 Green/Gray BTF Stripe — SKU: M22759/16-22-58-PRSP is a genuine MIL-spec M22759/16 Tefzel-insulated stranded wire in 22 AWG with a green/gray striped insulation, supplied by Arctic Performance Parts as a pre-striped BTF (Build To Fill) shelf stock wire for professional motorsport wiring harness construction. M22759/16 is the aerospace and motorsport industry standard wire specification for high-temperature, lightweight, and chemically resistant wiring in demanding electrical environments.
M22759/16 — MIL-Spec Tefzel
M22759/16 uses ETFE (Ethylene Tetrafluoroethylene) insulation — the DuPont Tefzel formulation — providing continuous operation at up to 150°C, exceptional resistance to fuels, oils, hydraulic fluids, and solvents, and excellent abrasion resistance in a thin-wall construction that minimises conductor diameter and harness weight. These properties make M22759/16 the default wire for professional motorsport harness builders who require maximum reliability in race engine bays, cockpit wiring, and chassis loom applications.
Green/Gray — Colour Code 58
Green/gray (code 58) at 22 AWG identifies shield drain wires associated with green-family reference voltage and sensor supply cables — the gray stripe marking the drain function with the green base cross-referencing the conductor to the sensor supply circuit it screens. Reference voltage conductors in precision sensor circuits — particularly 5V supply lines for pressure transducers and linear potentiometers — are frequently shielded to prevent noise injection into the reference that would manifest as sensor offset errors. Green/gray at 22 AWG identifies the shield drain of these critical reference supply cables, ensuring the drain is correctly single-point grounded rather than inadvertently double-grounded during harness assembly.
22 AWG — Gauge Selection
22 AWG is the lightest standard gauge in the M22759/16 Tefzel range for motorsport harness signal wiring — the preferred choice for thermocouple extension leads, fine analogue sensor inputs, data acquisition channels, and low-current logic circuits where minimising harness weight and diameter is a primary design objective. 22 AWG Tefzel wire saves meaningful weight over heavier gauges in high-channel-count data acquisition and telemetry harnesses without compromising signal integrity or Tefzel’s exceptional insulation performance. The stranded tin-plated copper conductor provides the flexibility and vibration fatigue resistance essential for motorsport harness routing around tight bends, through grommets, and along chassis runs subject to flex during vehicle operation.
BTF Shelf Stock — Ready to Ship
The PRSP designation confirms this wire is held as pre-striped shelf stock at Arctic Performance Parts, available for immediate dispatch. Professional harness builders working to tight build schedules can order the green/gray colour combination without waiting for a custom stripe run — a critical advantage when a specific colour is needed to complete a build on deadline. Arctic Performance Parts maintains a comprehensive range of M22759/16 striped colours across all standard AWG gauges to support professional harness construction.
