Figure 1 - Acrylic Coated Fibreglass SleevingAcrylic Coated Fibreglass Sleeving

Typical Characteristics

Acrylic Coated Fibreglass Sleeving is characterised by excellent flexibility allied with high resistance to mechanical damage, particularly from abrasion, and in this respect holds many advantages over conventional isophthalate or polyurethane varnished sleevings and other high temperature types.
Outstanding features are excellent thermal endurance and resistance to 'heat shock' and chemical reversion, good dielectric strength and almost unlimited shelf like.  High bore expandability together with close bore tolerances and low wall thickness assist fitting of sleeving and permit use of bore sizes more closely related to conductors.  Acrylic Coated Fibreglass Sleeving is thermally stable at Class F (155°C) temperatures for extended periods and is capable of short term operation at temperatures in excess of this figure.
