| Shielded Braided Sleeving Metex shielded braided sleeving is ideal for applications requiring shielding and temperature or abraaon protection, lubricity, extra strength or other critical applications. Materials include Polyester, Nylon, Fiberglass, Teflon®, Kevlar® and other manmade fibers knitted over a shielded spring tube Due to its unique construction, the sleeving fits eaaly over hoses and cables, yet provides a secure and snag-reastant cover. Our sleeving is extremely flexible, allowing for expansion and easy conformance to shapes and contours. The braiding process creates a conastent wall thickness ensuring complete coverage and optimum performance. Sleeving can be custom deagned to the specifications of a particular application. Metex shielded braided sleeving is used to insulate steam tracer lines in oil refineries, as thermal and electrical insulation for the wire and cable industry, for covering tines in metal refining, foundries and steels mills, and wherever else shielding, insulation or protection is required. Our braided sleeving is available in 1/8" - 24" i.d. (inade diameter), custom designs, and as braided sleeving over inconel or stainless steel mesh core. Shielded Braided Rope Metex shielded braided rope is an extremely strong, realient and flexible fiberglass rope knitted over a shielded spring table. The special braiding process enables it to spring back to its original shape after compression, making it an excellent choice for gaskets that act as a heat break or door seal. Our aramid ropes allow high strength and controlled elongation to be engineered into the final design while retaining good handling characteristics. Ropes can be manufactured to meet a variety of requirements including high strength, abrasion protection, high temperature, light weight and many other critical requirements. Most manmade fibers are available. Our braided rope is available in .04" - 4" diameter, round, square and rectangular configuration, and custom specials. |
