The wire is also used in exposed situations due to its resistance to abrasion, fluids, and weather. Additionally, the MIL-Spec wire is recognized for possessing superior flexibility at most temperatures. M13486 is usually fungus resistant. The wire is typically constructed with a stranded tinned copper conductor, rubber insulating core, inner glass braid and a jacket.
