The tube is lightweight, quiet, and flexible, with a 25% edge overlap for coverage around connectors and splices.
Key Features:
  • Easy and cost-effective installation
  • More flexible than split convoluted or spiral wrap
  • Soft and quiet in high vibration environments
  • Cut and abrasion resistant
  • Chemically inert and halogen-free
Specifications:
  • Nominal Widths: Ranges from 1/8" to 2"
  • Wall Thickness: 0.024" to 0.038"
  • Melt Point: 482°F (250°C)
  • Maximum Continuous Temperature: 257°F (125°C)
  • Minimum Continuous Temperature: -94°F (-70°C)
Chemical Resistance: The tube shows varying levels of resistance to different chemicals, with no effect from salt water and hydraulic fluid, but severely affected by strong acids and oxidants.
Abrasion Resistance: Medium resistance with significant wear visible after 1,200 test cycles. The material wears out after 1,950 test cycles.
Physical Properties:
  • Flammability Rating: UL94
  • Tensile Strength: 6-10 lbs
  • Specific Gravity: 1.38
  • Moisture Absorption: 0.1-0.2%

MF6 Braided Tube-1

Flexible, Semi-Rigid Wrappable Split Braided Tube MF6 unique split, semi-rigid braided construction makes it the ideal solution for situations where ease of installation is of primary importance. The lateral split allows the tube to open up to accommodate a wide variety of bundling requirements, and the semi- rigid braid configuration simply closes around the entire installation without the need for any additional fasteners (Velcro, tape, etc.). The 10 mil braid is lightweight, quiet and flexible. The 25% edge overlap (at nominal diameter) allows coverage around inline plugs, connectors and splices.
