Litz Wire
Litz wire (from the German term for braided wire, Litzendraht) is a special type of multi-strand wire. Thin, individual strands of enameled magnet wire are twisted together in a specific pattern to form the complete litz wire. This unique construction helps to reduce the skin and proximity effects that cause losses at higher frequencies in other wire types.
Litz wire is available in a multitude of different stranding constructions & gauges to best fit specific operating frequencies and applications.

Remington Wire Product Description
Litz Wire, 14 AWG Unserved Single Build, 5/52/38 Stranding, 1.0 lb Spool, Ideal for ~100 kHz Applications
Litz wire is made up of individually-insulated strands of magnet wire that are twisted together in a specific pattern. This unique construction mitigates skin and/or proximity effects and lends to fewer losses in high frequency applications. As such, Litz wire is ideal for switch-mode power supplies, high Q coils, and many other specialized applications that require minimal losses at higher frequencies (e.g. aviation, medical, laboratory, and communication uses).
The magnet wire used to construct this Litz wire is drawn to meet specific size requirements based on the National Electrical Manufacturers Association (NEMA) standards. Additionally, this wire meets the NEMA MW 80-C standard for operating temperature (155°C / 311°F) and insulation makeup.
- Wire Type: Single Build, Unserved Litz Wire
- Stranding: 5 bundles of 52 strands of 38 AWG (5/52/38)
- Overall Diameter: 0.090"
- Insulation Material: Solderable Polyurethane with Polyamide Overcoat
- Insulation Color: Red
- NEMA Grade: MW 80-C
- Temperature Rating: 155°C (311°F)
- Ideal Operating Frequency: Approx. 100 kHz
- Max. DCR at 20°C (68°F): 0.00281 Ω/ft
- UL Recognized Component (OBMW2 File E190291)
