mPPE wire is an advanced solution for modern electrical systems that require high performance, space savings, and environmental responsibility. Made with modified polyphenylene ether (mPPE) insulation, this wire offers a superior alternative to conventional PVC or XLPE wires in terms of weight, thickness, and compliance.
Thanks to its lightweight and compact insulation layer, mPPE cable can reduce cable bundle size by up to 45% and overall cable weight by more than 30%. This makes it especially valuable in automotive wire harnesses, robotic arms, data centers, and consumer electronics, where cable routing and space optimization are critical.
In terms of performance, mPPE insulation provides excellent dielectric strength, flame resistance, and mechanical durability, while maintaining flexibility. It performs reliably in environments exposed to heat, abrasion, oil, and chemical exposure, making it suitable for 12V and 24V systems.
It is also a halogen-free, RoHS and REACH-compliant material, making it an eco-conscious choice for manufacturers aiming to meet global environmental directives. Its low toxicity and clean combustion characteristics contribute to safer cable design in confined or passenger-heavy spaces.
Common wire types using mPPE insulation include AVSS, AVS, and custom ultra-thin wires used in EVs, infotainment systems, smart home devices, and factory automation. These cables meet or exceed key international standards such as ISO 6722, SAE J1128, and UL 758.
At 3A Plus, we provide custom mPPE wire solutions built to your specification—offering flexibility in conductor size, voltage rating, insulation color, striping, and flame class. If you are seeking a modern, sustainable, and space-saving wire option, mPPE is the future-proof choice.
