These sleeves are widely used for the insulation of winding lead-outs and joint on Class F rated induction motors and alternators and on transformer/choke winding lead-outs. Vidaflex 942 is used in motor vehicle wiring harness manufacturing for the bunching, consolidation and protection of cables.
The specifically formulated acrylic resin coatings are applied as aqueous solutions and hence the sleeving manufacturing process has no significant environmental hazard. The sleevings are constructed from braided or knitted 'E' glass yarn with the minimum size of the glass yarn filaments greater than 9 microns thereby offering no health hazard from inhalation. The acrylic resin coated sleevings are characterised by excellent flexibility allied to high abrasion resistance and mechanical strength.
