ALCONEX GOLD® is an electrical insulation film recognized by Underwriters Laboratory available in the form of a 240° C electrical insulation for low voltage applications. The ALCONEX GOLD®240°C insulated magnet wire comes fused (or bonded) onto aluminum and copper magnet wire. This innovative insulation has allowed our customers to reduce the build on the conductor, resulting in a more efficient yet smaller coil design.
