    About Wire Sleeving
    industrial info icon

    Select the right sleeving to protect your wires against heat, abrasion, corrosion, and impact.

    Fiberglass High-Temperature Wire Sleeving

    This sleeving withstands temperatures over 1000° F, such as in refineries. Made of fiberglass, it resists acids, alkalies, oil, and solvents so it won’t degrade when exposed to substances such as grease, ammonia, or harsh detergents. 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.

    Silica High-Temperature Wire Sleeving

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Wire Sleeving. Silica High-Temperature Wire Sleeving.
    Made of silica, this sleeving can withstand higher temperatures than fiberglass. It resists open flame and molten metal splash, so it’s a good choice for welding applications. It also withstands oil and gasoline. 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 Electrical Insulating Tube Wire Sleeving

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Wire Sleeving. High-Temperature Electrical Insulating Tube Wire Sleeving.
    This sleeving 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.

    High-Temperature Expandable Wire Sleeving

    Protect cable, hose, and pipe from abrasion and cuts in high temperature environments—this sleeving withstands temperatures over 450° F. It expands to fit over items for easy installation; sleeving then tightens around its contents for a secure fit. The braided construction permits heat and moisture to dissipate.
    Fiberglass Fabric
    Image of Product. Front orientation. Wire Sleeving. High-Temperature Expandable Wire Sleeving.
    Fiberglass fabric sleeving withstands continuous exposure to high temperatures better than all our other high-temperature sleeving materials. It resists burning and is often used near ovens and furnaces, or to protect exhaust pipes and tubes in mobile equipment. It also resists acids, alkalies, oil, and solvents.

    Spark-Resistant Hook and Loop Wraparound Wire Sleeving

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Wire Sleeving. Spark-Resistant Hook and Loop Wraparound Wire 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.

    High-Strength Wire Sleeving

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Wire Sleeving. High-Strength Wire Sleeving.
    This sleeving has excellent tear resistance and better abrasion resistance than standard polyester sleeving. Made of Nomex fabric, it resists most acids and alkalies, alcohol, hydraulic fluid, oil, gasoline, salt water, and solvents. It won’t irritate skin like fiberglass, so it’s easier to handle. 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.

    Heat-Reflecting Wire Sleeving

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Wire Sleeving. Heat-Reflecting Wire Sleeving.
    Protect wire, cable, and hose from heat radiating off hot objects, such as molten metal. Coated in aluminized PET, also known as Mylar, this sleeving reflects most heat without letting it pass through, so it can handle intermittent radiant heat up to 2000° F. The liner is a blend of aramid and Kevlar that withstands continuous temperatures up to 650° F. This sleeving is stitched together with PTFE-coated silica fiberglass threads, which are just as heat resistant as the sleeving. It doesn’t stretch, so it’s best to know the exact diameter of the items you’re protecting.

    Extra-Thick Spark-Resistant Tube Wire Sleeving

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Wire Sleeving. Extra-Thick Spark-Resistant Tube Wire 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.
