Vinyl Coated Fiberglass - Grade A

Vinyl Coated Fiberglass - Grade A

Tightly Braided Fiberglass to Withstand Mechanical Stress

Vinyl Flex Glass® (VG) sleeving is a heat-treated, tightly braided fiberglass sleeving coated with a firmly bonded plasticzed polyvinylchloride film. This durable sleeving will withstand mechanical stress and holds it dielectric strength on all bends. Vinyl Flex Glass® is used for supplementary insulation on transformer, motor, generator, and resistor leads. Also other applications include television, radio, and other electric circuits where it can be pushed back to permit soldering. Highly reistant to acids and solvents, and will withstand tough assembly handling. The Vinyl compound is designed for continuous operation at 130°C temperatures, while providing excellent abrasion and cut-through resistance.

Why Is Insulating Wires Important?

Safety: Insulating wires helps prevent electrical shock and electrocution by creating a barrier between the electrical conductor and anything or anyone that may come into contact with it. This is particularly important in high-voltage applications where the risk of injury is greater.

Prevention of short circuits: Insulation helps prevent short circuits, which can lead to fires, equipment damage, and electrical hazards.

Protection of equipment: Insulating wires helps protect electrical equipment from damage caused by exposure to moisture, dust, chemicals, and other environmental factors.

Efficiency: Insulating wires can help improve the efficiency of electrical transmission by reducing the amount of energy lost through leakage.

Compliance: Insulating wires may be required by regulatory agencies or building codes to ensure compliance with safety standards.
