In Reply to: why teflon insulation? posted by jarthel on March 24, 2007 at 22:43:01:
Everyone has overlooked one of my favorite reasons for using teflon insulated wires. When soldering, the heat of the iron does not effect the insulation. With some other insulating materials there will be shrinkage or burning of the insulation. Teflon insulation is resistant to this.Cheers,
