Qualified Vendor Listing
In an effort to provide customers with the highest quality products
through our distributors,
Judd Wire
has developed a Qualified Vendor
Listing (QVL) program for its Military and Aerospace wire and cable
distributors. To become a QVL distributor of
Judd Wire
, vendors were
audited to the standards outlined in ISO 9001:2000 and AS9100-B which
are in accordance with AS9104 and AIR5359B, and certified to have met
or exceeded all of the expectations within those standards.
Judd Wire’s
QVL program provides customers with:
A distribution source that utilizes accredited methods for record keeping,
certification and traceability of all factory documentation
A value added packaging system that complies with Aerospace regulatory agency
requirements
A visible and defined link between
Judd Wire
and the end customer
Judd Wire’s
newest hybrid insulation system is the SuperComposite®200, a combination of dual walls
using an enhanced ultra thin layer of PTFE/Polyimide tape with an extruded XLETFE outer layer.
This robust and proven combination of materials produces a .006” dual wall product with performance
properties that exceed every current design materials used in the Aerospace community today.
The design emphasis has been on using the strengths of each material to compliment and improve
the overall performance of the insulation.
We believe that the mechanical performance for cut-through (at both room temperature and at
elevated temperatures), wire to wire abrasion resistance, moisture resistance, resistance to arc
tracking, and deformation all have been measured as equal to the best materials in use today.
This wire also exhibits superb contrast levels when marked with current laser processors and can be
cut and stripped with all types of hand held and automated equipment.
We invite you to ask more about what
Judd Wire
sees as the natural progression to the next
generation Aerospace wiring insulation system.

Judd Wire
offers a unique reduced wall (.004”) avionics wire for enclosed panels and systems that require
the smallest wire possible for unique applications. Although not listed under a specific military specification,
this wire is routinely used in satellite systems, optical systems and other miniaturized control devices.
Low Voltage Lightweight XLETFE
450 Volts - 150°C
Judd Wire
offers a number of design options for weight reductions and performance enhancements.
One of those alternatives is the development of an insulated hybrid conductor, utilizing both aluminum
and copper stranding. Customers requiring a balance of properties can take advantage of weight savings
afforded by the aluminum while keeping the conductivity and mechanical strength properties of the copper.
Designs to date have used 1350 EC aluminum as the center bunch with plated copper strands forming
the outer layer.
Full design (including calculated weight savings) and test performance data is available upon request.

This specification covers the requirements for radio frequency absorptive component wires and
finished cables which function electrically as distributed low-pass filters.
Judd Wire’s
Filter Line products offer a flexible alternative for traditionally metal shielded products.
The reduced size, weight and increased flexibility can be critical in applications were those
performance requirements are paramount.
Filter Line products offer excellent design solutions in areas where power and signal wires run in
close proximity, or in areas where space and weight limitations restrict the use of metallic braids.
These filtered layer wires are used today in numerous environments including helicopter harnesses,
satellite systems and other secure electrical communication networks.

1 Military Specification 27500
is used to designate NEMA WC 27500
2 Shield Coverage and Color Identification-
a slash followed by a dash (-) or letter code
indicates both shielding coverage and the method of color identification of primary core
insulation as detailed in
Table A.
The example (left) indicates 85% and white primaries with
colored stripes.
3 Conductor Size-
This position identifies the wire AWG. Judd Wire can manufacture cables
using AWG’s of 30-2/O, depending on basic wire specification.
4 Basic Wire Specification-
The component wire are identified by a two letter code. Cables
utilizing Judd Wire’s components are detailed in
Table B.
5 Number of Conductors-
27500 currently specifies from 1 to 15 conductors for shielded and
jacketed cables, and from 2 to 15 for unshielded unjacketed or unshielded jacketed cables.
6 Shield-
The specific shield style and material are designated by a single letter code.
Detailed in
Table C.
7 Jacket-
Cable jacketing materials are specified with a two digit code. Detailed in

G J Optional identification method A, All solid colors are used instead of
Table III B white striped wires, but a different
color sequence is used.
K M Optional identification method C All wires are the same solid color
determined by the Table to denote the
AWG. Numbers are added for
individual conductor identification.
L N Optional identification method D All wires are white and numbers are
added for individual conductor
identification.
