A. Autoclave requirements vary dramatically depending on the application for the cable/tool in question. Autoclaving is not just subjecting an item to heat. A true autoclave can require a multiple of temperatures, cycle times, levels of steam and pressure. The recommended operating temperature is 105C / 221F and the manufacturing processing temperature is 176.67C / 350F. The point of breakdown is somewhere in between.
