What's special about this braided sleeving?
|
NYLON (NY) 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 NY 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 NYL provides, it pays for itself throughout the life of your product.
NY 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.
NY resists all common automotive chemicals and UV damage. It won't rot or retain moisture.

Comments about 1/2 inch Nylon monofilament braid - per foot:
I use this to sleeve d.i.y. power cables for portable professional audio gear. Power wires on pc power supply cables for cleaner look. Offers much better protection than regular plastic type sleeving; often seen on pc psu cables & fans wires. Nylon has denser weave than regular sleeving. Costs more, but looks much better and if protection is necessary than you can't beat this.
