Cable Sleeves

pc

Cable sleeves are protective coverings used to bundle and shield electrical cables from environmental factors and physical damage.

expanded

Cable sleeves serve to organize multiple cables into a single neat unit, providing protection against abrasion, chemicals, and moisture, which is crucial in both indoor server rooms and outdoor installations. These coverings are often constructed from materials like polyethylene, PET, or neoprene, and can offer features such as thermal insulation and flame retardance, making them vital in both enhancing safety and prolonging the lifespan of cables in various industrial applications.

examples

A PET cable sleeve measuring 10 meters (32.8 feet) in length and with a diameter range of 5 mm to 12 mm (0.2 inches to 0.47 inches), used within server racks to reduce clutter and improve airflow.

Commonly utilized in data center management to ensure better air circulation and cooling efficiency around densely packed server cables.

A neoprene cable sleeve with dimensions of 1 meter (3.28 feet) length, 30 mm (1.18 inches) diameter, and a material tensile strength of 15 MPa, used to protect power cables in outdoor settings.

Employed in outdoor electrical installations to safeguard against UV radiation and moisture ingress, thus maintaining cable integrity in telecommunications towers.
