Nomex Braided Sleeving

Nomex Braided Sleeving

• Non-flammable
• Oil and water repellent 
• Lightweight and flexible 
• Excellent resistance to gamma and x-rays

Nomex Braided Sleeving is a flexible tubular expandable sleeving, braided with Nomex (polyaryl-mide) multifilament fibres. Designed to cope with high temperatures, or in the presence of Beta, gamma and X-ray radiation or when exposed to high humidity or moisture. The expandable nature of the construction allows the sleeving to be easily drawn on long lengths of wiring and cover a wide range of diameters with only a few product sizes.

Nomex braided sleeving is manufactured by braiding Nomex yarn to produce a thick-walled highly expandable structure. The ready "concertina" action of the sleeve will expand the bore and thus assisting fitting over complex shapes.

• Insulates cables and hoses against high temperatures, helping them endure the brutal conditions of the military, aviation, fire rescue, and other applications that require superior flame resistance.
• 90,000 psi tensile strength for unparalleled defence against damage from stretching, pulling and other forms of stress.
• Resists oils, acids, chemicals, and solvents, adding extra protection against common destructive elements.
• Dense weave makes for a soft, pliable feel that is easy to handle, unlike other braided sleeving that can be rough and difficult to bend into place.

Nomex braided sleeving is lightweight, flexible and non-flammable. It will perform without deterioration in the most diverse and demanding environments. Nomex braided sleeving is oil and water repellent and also offers excellent resistance to gamma and x-rays.

It is designed for the protection of wires and cable bundles against flame, high temperatures and mechanical abrasion. It is used on a variety of applications in the military, railway, marine, aeronautical and electrical equipment industries.
