Flexo® Heavy Wall Braided Sleeving
Cable Protection for Extreme Applications
What's special about this industrial sleeving?
- Durable and thick 15 mil PET braided sleeve is pulled over cables and hoses to provide high abrasion resistance.
- Highly resistant to salt water and has an open weaving that allows water to escape quickly, garnering a Safety Standard status from the American Boat and Yacht Council.
- Unlike other heavy duty sleevings, this Flexo HW retains its flexibility, providing the freedom to route cables, hoses, and chains as needed.

Flexo® Heavy from Techflex® provides the ultimate protection where typical sleeving simply won't do. This tightly woven sleeving of 0.015" PET is highly resistant to corrosion, chemicals, salt water, heat, and many other destructive elements, and is certified for use in marine applications.
Splice Free Spooling:
Some splices are normal during the braiding process. Usually, not more than one or two splices will be on any given spool. Ordering splice-free spools guarantees the maximum continuous yield on your spools. This option is suggested when ordering large lengths of sleeving or for important and precise projects. This treatment is most applicable in lengths that exceed 100 feet. In general, shorter lengths will be splice free as they come off the spools.
Rounding:
Flexo® Rounded is a premium process where Flexo® products are rounded for improved aesthetics, spring, and installation time. Rounding braided sleeving can retain its form for the lifetime of the product. It is commonly used in both retail and medical applications. Rounding services require a minimum spool length of 25 ft. NOTICE: Longer lengths of product may lose some of its shape when applied to or shipped on a spool. Adding the rounded option may increase the processing time of your order by up to 48 hours. Rounding services also require a minimum length of 25 ft. Not Available in all diameters.
