About Sleeving

This sleeving withstands temperatures up to 390° F and is often used to insulate connections in transformers, relays, and solenoids. It prevents electricity and heat from dissipating from wire and cable. When exposed to flame, it will self-extinguish and produce a nonconductive ash. It’s flame rated VW-1 to meet requirements for preventing the spread of flames based on a timed test with vertically suspended material. Made of silicone-coated fiberglass, it resists chemicals.

Expandable Electrical-Insulating Tube Sleeving

A specially formulated silicone rubber coating allows this fiberglass sleeving to stretch to twice its relaxed ID to fit over items during installation; it then tightens around its contents for a secure fit. Often used in motors, generators, and transformers, it prevents electricity and heat from dissipating from wire and cable. It has good chemical resistance.

Spark-Resistant Tube Sleeving

A specially formulated silicone rubber coating on this fiberglass sleeving sheds sparks, molten metal splash, hydraulic fuel, and lubricating oil. Exposure to a torch will char the coating, but will not scorch the fiberglass inner layer. It also resists fraying. Because this sleeving is non-expandable, it does not stretch, so it’s best for applications where you know the exact diameter of the items you need to protect.

Extra-Thick Spark-Resistant Tube Sleeving

Made from thicker and denser fiberglass than standard spark-resistant sleeving, this sleeving is more abrasion resistant and provides better insulation. The specially formulated silicone rubber coating sheds sparks, molten metal splash, hydraulic fuel, and lubricating oil. It also resists fraying. Exposure to a torch will char the coating, but will not scorch the fiberglass inner layer. It can withstand short-term flame exposure up to 2000° F, and is flame rated VW-1 to meet requirements for preventing the spread of flames based on a timed test of vertically suspended material. Because this sleeving is non-expandable, it does not stretch, so it’s best for applications where you know the exact diameter of the items you need to protect.

High-Temperature Wrap Sleeving

A mica and silicone rubber blend allows this sleeving to withstand temperatures up to 2100° F and creates a fire barrier around its contents. A good option for emergency patches, it can be quickly applied to hose or cable like tape. When wrapping, sleeving should overlap itself by half its width.

Spark-Resistant Wrap-Around Sleeving

A specially formulated silicone rubber coats this fiberglass sleeving to shed sparks, molten metal splash, hydraulic fuel, and lubricating oil. Wrap it around wire, cable, and hose without disconnecting them. It has a slit along the entire length and a strip of hook-and-loop that keeps it securely closed but allows you to maintain access along the length of the sleeving.

Spiral Sleeving

Wrap this sleeving around cable, cords and wires to protect them and to form bundles. Unlike cable ties and tape, this sleeving can be unwound and reused.

Silicone sleeving is softer and more pliable than polyethylene sleeving, but does not hold up as well when rubbed or scraped. It cushions and protects fragile wires without damaging them, and is often used with fiber-optic cable.
