Materials Used For Braided Sleeving Products

A braided sleeve is like a sleeve of wire cable for protection purposes of the wire. These protections come in the form of a braid to provide more tensile strength to the covering. These protection cables also have a coating to make them resistant to corrosion, rust, water, overheating, and chemicals. These add to the safety of wires and cables.

The materials used for making braided sleeving products get selected by keeping in mind a few things like the materials should be good dissipators of heat. Overheating has adverse effects on wires, and the wire needs protection thus, the material for braided sleeving should be resistant to temperature. 

The material should be durable so that it requires the least possible maintenance. Once a wire or cable gets fixed inside a wall, it cannot be removed frequently for maintenance purposes, and thus, it should have a long life. All such aspects affect the decision of choosing the right material for braided sleeving products, and here are our top 3 preferred materials.

Nylon

Nylon material is known for its flexible and lightweight nature. As a result, they are easy to install and use. The nylon braided sleeving products are used in applications having high chances of wear and tear.

Nomex

Nomex braided sleeving products are resistant to UV rays, beta and gamma rays, moisture, and many chemicals. These have applications in places which have risks of high melting points as Nomex protects from high heating temperatures.

Polyester

Polyester sleeving products have high applications in industries which involve the risk of chemicals and high temperatures. It is a good option if you are looking for durable sleeving products. Automation and Electronics are their two popular application domains.

Let's Wrap Up

Braided sleeving products protect wires, and are strong, durable, corrosion resistant, and dissipate heat properly. Some frequently used materials are nylon, Nomex, polyester, polyethylene terephthalate, and many others.
