We&rsquo;ve been moving toward high-efficiency infrared (IR) systems because they actually play nice with digital controls. But here&rsquo;s the catch: none of that fancy tech matters if your wiring melts. That&rsquo;s why we stick with Teflon (PTFE) coated wiring for semiconductor heater connections.</p> <h2 id="why-teflon-because-pvc-melts">Why Teflon? Because PVC Melts.</h2> <p>Let&rsquo;s be honest. Standard PVC or silicone wires are a nightmare when they&rsquo;re sitting next to IR emitters. They burn out. Fast. Teflon is different. It stays strong and steady at temperatures that would turn other plastics into a puddle. And in a cleanroom, you can&rsquo;t have wires &ldquo;off-gassing&rdquo;—that&rsquo;s just a fancy way of saying they release fumes that ruin your wafers. PTFE stops that from happening. Plus, it lets you keep your <a href="https://o-yate.net">cable</a> routing tight and tidy without worrying about a sudden short circuit.</p>
