If you could get by with a smaller wire, like AWG 24 or so, you can find loads
of that stuff in Cat-5 cable. Just strip off the outer jacket and untwist the
pairs. Pretty cheap too. Don't know the voltage rating of the individual wires,
though.
Alltronics (http://www.alltronics.com) sells by the foot, although they have a
25 ft minimum. Seems the only color they have in stock is red.
Surplus Sales (http://www.surplussales.com/wire-cable/Wire4.html) has it in
stock. again, 25 ft minimum.
Action Electronics seems to have the best color selection
(http://www.action-electronics.com/ntehuwt.htm#20)
Amp Builders Parts
(http://ampbuildersparts.com/store/in...index&cPath=34) also...
100 ft spools, but better price.

Hope you can find what you need from one of those links.

Cheers!!!!

I have plenty of #22 stranded teflon wire if this will work for you. I
have black and white. How much do you need? It's yours for the asking
if you only need something like 20 or 25 feet or so. Send me a postal
address or callsign I can look up in qrz.com and I send you some if you
can use it. acepilot at bloomer dot net.

What color do you need? I have some short lengths in stock
of various colors, including some striped stuff. Give me an
address and I'll send you some for the price of the postage.
I'm not sure it is exactly 20 gauge, but it is stranded and darn
close to that size.

Let me know. My email is radioconnection (at) juno (dot) com.
I'll get it out to you if you wish. Send back the postage if you're
happy afterwards.

Question: Why teflon. Heat rating? Or high voltage insulation rating?
Just curious and willing to learn something! TIA terry

There are a number of guys on E-bay who sell short (5, 10, 50 ft)
lengths of teflon hookup wire, usually the good silver-plated stranded
stuff (although some oddball types like solid silver occasionally show
up too!). Their main market seems to be audiophile amp builders.

CAT5E teflon wire has 24AWG conductors.

McMaster-Carr will sell you teflon tubing (no wire inside) by the
foot. Add your own wire!

I wish you'd respond to the question of how many feet you
need. I received your email, but you never answered the
question of how many feet a "short length" consists of.

Shipped several pieces, different colors. Hope the gauge is
close enough for your needs.
