Nylon Expandable Braided Sleeving

NYLON is commonly used in the automotive industry to protect wires and hoses from excessive wear. Vibration and abrasion can tear automotive hoses to pieces, but Nylon can increase hose life up to 300%. This lengthened lifespan is recognized in terms of reduced maintenance and downtime, an attractive and professional appearance and greater customer satisfaction. With the protection that Nylon provides, it pays for itself throughout the life of your product.

Nylon is braided from .012" Nylon 6-6 polyamide monofilament. The tight braid construction covers fully and provides excellent surface abrasion resistance for assemblies exposed to excessive wear. The smooth Nylon fibers and tight construction also reduce abrasion damage caused by hoses and harnesses rubbing against the inside wall of the sleeving. Nylon resists all common automotive chemicals and UV damage. It won't rot or retain moisture.
