Braided Sleeving Selection Guide
Braided sleeving is generally used for its superior strength and durability. We are able to offer an extensive range of these products and use various base materials including polyester, nylon, glass, quartz, Nomex ® and PPS in a large range of braid patterns and coating methods.
All the glass products are produced in a humidity controlled environment and are sintered to eliminate barbs and give superior performance. The use of various braiding techniques means we can offer most ranges in standard braid versions, anti-fray, non-fray knit braid and expandable versions.
We are also able to offer all these materials cut to the required length; see our range of braided sleeving here.
