MIL-DTL-27072/89D
Heat resistance: A specimen of finished cable shall be subjected to 250±5 °C in an air oven for 96 hours
minimum. The specimen shall be removed from the oven and allowed to cool to room temperature. After
1 hour at room temperature, the insulation and jacket shall be checked for shrinkage of not more than
.125 inch (3.17 mm). The specimen shall then be wound 5 close turns around the mandrel of 10 times
the cable diameter. In this position, the specimen shall be subjected to the dielectric strength test in
accordance with MIL-DTL-27072. If the cable fails the dielectric strength test or shrinks more than .125
inch (3.17 mm), the lot shall be rejected.
