Braided Expandable Sleeving – PET Protective Mesh for Cables & Harnesses

Braided Expandable Sleeving is a highly flexible, professional-grade protective mesh designed to shield cables, hoses, and wire bundles from abrasion, UV exposure, chemicals, and mechanical wear. Constructed from premium polyester (PET), this sleeving delivers outstanding durability while maintaining a lightweight and easy-to-install structure.

Thanks to its unique woven design, the sleeving naturally expands—up to 1.5× its original diameter—allowing effortless installation over connectors, plugs, and irregularly shaped cable assemblies. Once applied, it contracts to form a tight, clean, and secure wrap, making it ideal for cable harnessing in automotive, industrial, electrical, marine, and aerospace environments.
