Silicone fiberglass sleeve is a high-performance insulation material made by impregnating fiberglass cloth with silicone resin and then using a heat curing process. This type of silicone coated fiberglass sleeving combines the high strength of glass fiber and the excellent electrical insulation performance of silicone resin, with good heat resistance, electrical insulation, chemical stability, and mechanical strength. Therefore, it is widely used in fields such as electrical, electronic, automotive, aerospace, etc., for the protection and insulation casing of wires and cables.

Features of Silicone Fiberglass Sleeving

The key features of silicone coated fiberglass sleeve include:

1. High-Temperature Resistance: It can withstand temperatures from as low as -70°C up to +200°C, and sometimes even higher for short periods, making it suitable for applications in extreme conditions.

2. Electrical Insulation: Offers excellent dielectric strength, which makes it an effective insulator for electrical wires and components, helping to prevent electrical shocks and short circuits.

3. Chemical and Abrasion Resistance: The silicone coating provides resistance to a wide range of chemicals, including oils and solvents, as well as protection against physical abrasion.

4. Flexibility: Despite its durability and resistance to harsh conditions, silicone fiberglass sleeving remains flexible, which is crucial for installation and maintenance in tight spaces.

5. Versatility: It is used in various industries, including automotive, aerospace, electronics, and manufacturing, for applications such as wire harnesses, electrical insulation, and protection of hydraulic hoses.
