Introduction of Braided Sleeving
Introduction of Braided Sleeving
Braided Sleeving, also be called Expandable Sleeving, it has great performance of abrasion resistance, elasticity, fire resistance and mechanical protection, which is widely used in optical fibers, computer cables, HDMI cables, DVI cables, power cables, and inner wiring for automotives, airplanes, home appliances, locomotive etc.
Here we will introduce it from two aspects
1.The Formation Raw Material of Braided Sleeving
PET(Polyethylene Terephthalate): Operate at -50℃-+150℃ (-58°F -302°F)
Nylon (Polyamide 6.6): -60℃-+160℃ (-76°F -320°F)
PBT(polybutylene Terephthalate): -50℃-+150℃ (-58°F -302°F)
Nomex: -60℃-+240℃. Strong mechanical toughness, non-combustible, acid and alkali resistant, light weight.
Bare Copper & Tinned Copper: -40℃-+150℃ (-40°F -302°F)
Between them, PET and Nylon are most commonly seen. PET Braided Sleeving has good Scalability and heat risistance, also with cost advantage. While Nylon Braided Sleeving has much better abrasion resistance property
2.Different Opening type of Braided Sleeving
Non-Split Tubular
Self -closing Wrap
Waved self-closing Wrap
Velcro multifilament Wrap
Zipper Braided Wrap
