Gore wiring meets EWIS challenges in next-generation aircraft

All aerospace eyes are on the future with electrical power, and this manufacturer believes its wiring will play a major part in delivering its potential - meeting mechanical, electrical and material stability needs in one solution.

W. L. Gore & Associates has launched a wire range that meets higher voltages required for aircraft electrification. It says that the GWN3000 Series delivers the best combination of mechanical strength and electrical reliability without increasing wire bundle size or weight.

The wires ensure electrical wire interconnection systems reliability, increase operational readiness, improve safety and reduce total lifecycle costs, and meet and even exceed new rigorous industry standards that require higher levels of electrical and mechanical durability for wire bundles operating in extreme aerospace environments.

Gore's unique, chemically inert, wire insulation does not degrade after exposure to harsh chemicals or humidity. The GWN3000 Series also reduces the risk of chafing, abrasion, and cut-through failures while easily tolerating wide temperature ranges. This new unrivaled wire insulation meets mechanical, electrical, and material stability needs in one solution for complex wiring systems in commercial and defense aircraft.

"We're excited to offer a single, long-term solution to the industry that can solve complex EWIS challenges in today's and next-gen aircraft," says Jim Carothers, product manager.
