Protect-Fast™ Braided Sleeving & Wrap – Advanced Specialty Materials – PFA-Nomex®
Nomex Sleeving & Wrap is designed for high heat & flame protection applications. It is used extensively in aerospace & automotive
NMX Sleeve
NXW Wrap
Key Benefits
-
Nomex provides high heat & intense flame protection
-
Protects wiring & hoses from abrasion/cutting
-
Tough & lightweight, yet soft & pliable for easy installs
-
Contains & organizes cable assemblies, harnesses & hoses for easy management, troubleshooting & retrofits
-
Cut to length with scissors or use factory precut lengths
-
25% overlap -more flexibility than split, convoluted, or spiral wrap
-
Will bend to tight radii without distorting or splitting open
