Thermosleeve- Heavy wall braided glass fiber sleeve
Constructed from smooth E-glass fiber yarn, braided at high yield angles to allow for approx: 25% expansion and contraction.
Thermosleeve is an expandable braided glass fiber sleeve capable of operating at a continuous temperature of 1000°F (538°C).
Designed to expand and contract by approximately 25% of its nominal size, the smooth glass fiber yarn is heat cleaned and coated with an acrylic saturant to eliminate loose fibers, enhance handling characteristics, and improve abrasion resistance. The acrylic saturant begins to decompose around 400°F (204°C), but with no effect on the thermal performance of the sleeve.
Expandability creates custom size rangeDue to its wide range of expansion and contraction, Thermosleeve is available in just 7 nominal sizes that cover a complete range of diameters from 1/2" (13 mm) up to 2" (50mm).
Colour: Natural tan color is standard.
