The Race to Space & The Future of the Aerospace Industry
Mil-Spec is a popular hook-up wiring designation and a popular application for these products is within aircraft and now more than ever space equipment. With the race to space underway between some of the world's tech giants, we'll begin to see new space discoveries and more advanced technologies emerge over the next decade. With space quickly becoming more accessible for entertainment and commercial purposes, the future of space and its potential applications is quickly evolving.

Hook-up and mil-spec products are some of the most popular wiring categories in the electrical industry. From simple appliances to extremely demanding applications, both cabling products are able to replace each other in most non-critical applications. This blog will compare two of our team's most requested cabling products and explain why specific constructions can be used as different types of alternatives.

When it comes to wire and cable, there's several different constructions for the varying UL, CSA and Mil-Spec designations. This breakdown we'll be covering the fundamental differences between the Mil-W-16878 (M16878) and the Mil-W-22769 (M22759) cabling products. It will also be going over the different types of constructions used, what applications each construction is used for, and why specific mil-spec cables are preferred over traditional high-temperature and hook-up wires.
