Saturated Fiberglass Sleeving is a specialized braided sleeving designed for insulating wires and cables, offering superior thermal and electrical protection. With insulation capabilities up to 600V, it is ideal for wrapping irregular shapes, such as coil insulation on rotating equipment, and providing thermal protection to insulated wires. For example, it can thermally shield PVC-jacketed wires positioned near heat sources.

This sleeving undergoes a heat treatment process that removes starches, oils, and other impurities, ensuring cleaner performance and reliability. Its thermal characteristics are impressive, classified under UL Thermal Class S&C (240°C+), which is the highest thermal classification permitted for fiberglass products by UL and NEMA. It retains half of its strength at temperatures as high as 750°C and offers some protection up to the melting point of glass (1400°C).

Engineered to resist fraying, this sleeving is treated and saturated for enhanced durability and easier handling, making it suitable for assembly operations that demand fray resistance. Even in high-temperature environments, where traditional coatings and varnishes fail, saturated fiberglass sleeving maintains its integrity. Should temperatures exceed 240°C, the saturant gradually volatilizes without releasing harmful fumes or excessive smoke.

This product is ideal for high-temperature applications where assembly conditions demand fray resistance or specific color requirements.
