High
Temperature Sleeving
SILVERFLEX sleeving is a braided fiberglass sleeving which has been heat
treated (natural) or heat treated and impregnated (T&D) with an acrylic
binder. The natural type comes only in a silver-grey color, while the
impregnated type (“T & D” for treated and dyed) can be
furnished in brown, orange, black, red, yellow, blue or green for color
coding. SILVERFLEX sleeving is rated VW-1 by the Underwriters Laboratories,
Inc. (File No. E51556) and can be furnished with printed legend on the
spool head on request.

High Temperature
Sleeving
Applications: |
SILVERFLEX fiberglass High
Temperature Sleeving is used where space factor electrical insulation
is sufficient, particularly where high temperatures are encountered.
It is used as primary insulation on low voltage applications such
as leads in toasters, hot plates, hand irons, coffee makers, range
units, percolators, french-fry vessels and other appliances.
In some cases, SILVERFLEX fiberglass High Temperature Sleeving is used
as supplementary insulation and protection for other types of primary
insulation such as asbestos, extruded silicone rubber, etc. It is popular
as a replacement for asbestos gasketing.
SILVERFLEX fiberglass High Temperature Sleeving is used as insulation
and protection for small heaters and resistors which operate at high
temperatures.
A frequent use of SILVERFLEX fiberglass High Temperature Sleeving is
over electrical joints, especially where solder is used and soldering
iron temperatures may be reached by the insulation for short periods.
A new use of SILVERFLEX fiberglass High Temperature Sleeving is in vacuum
pressure impregnation of stators and rotors, where it is used in heavy
wall versions on coil ends and leads.
Non-electrical uses for our High Temperature Sleeving include gaskets
for range doors and range door windows, as chemical filters, as reinforcement
for baseball bat handles and many others. |
High Temperature
Sleeving Features: |
SILVERFLEX fiberglass
High Temperature Sleeving is a custom-braided fiberglass sleeving
designed specifically for applications where temperatures as high
as 1200°F may be
encountered. It will maintain its basic properties and do the job
in appropriate applications.
The heat treatment applied during production gives SILVERFLEX fiberglass
High Temperature Sleeving non-fraying properties that make it ideal for
applications where short lengths are used. The heat treatment also sets
the size and removes the starch-oil binder. This same sleeving can also
be supplied with a light impregnant which further minimizes fraying and
helps maintain a round cross-section where this is desirable. Both types
are easily expanded for ease of installation.
In addition to the standard wall thicknesses, heavy walls are available.
SILVERFLEX fiberglass High Temperature Sleeving designs can be produced
to meet specific requirements.
For flexibility, expandibility, high temperature applications, and resistance
to fraying, SILVERFLEX High Temperature Sleeving is the material
to use. |
