MIL-DTL-22759/84A
Insulation resistance: 5000 megohms for 1000 feet (min.)
Life cycle: 500 hours at 290°C ± 2°C (554°F ± 3.6°F). Dielectric test, 2500 volts (rms), 60 Hz. Use mandrels
coated with polytetrafluoroethylene such that the diameter of the mandrels, after coating, still conform to the
required test mandrels diameters of table VI. After oven exposure, layers shall not separate and or tapes shall not
lift along the insulation or at the ends.
Low temperature (cold bend): Use mandrels and weights specified in Table VI. Chamber temperature, -65°C ±
2°C (-85°F ± 3.6 F). Dielectric test, 2500 volts (rms), 60 Hz.
Shrinkage: 0.125 inch (max.) at 290°C ± 2°C (554°F ± 3.6°F).
Smoke: 260°C ± 5°C (500°F ± 9°F); no visible smoke.
Solderability: Not required. This slash sheet is primarily intended for crimp terminations. For solderability
applications use the silver coated copper version of this specification.
Strippability: Not required.
Tape Overlap: In accordance with MIL-STD-2223, method 6005.
Tensile Modulus: Test in accordance with ASTM D 822, Method A.
Thermal index: (Test required for initial qualification only). Qualification by similarity to MIL-W-22759/87.
Thermal shock resistance: Oven temperature, 260°C ± 5°C (500°F ± 9°F), Maximum change in measurement ,
0.125 inches. No cracking.
Wrap (mandrel wrap): No cracking, no dielectric breakdown. Use mandrels specified in Table VI. Dielectric test,
2500 volts (rms), 60 Hz.
