Expando® FR is an expandable sleeve constructed of flame-retardant polyester (PET) that is designed for applications up to 125ºC (257ºF). It is a UL Recognized Component and meets VW-1 and F.A.R. Part 25 flammability requirements. Expando® FR balances the properties of mechanical and thermal stability with economy.
Expando® FR protective oversleeves has many applications in the electronics, marine, and general manufacturing industries. The ability of these sleeves to retain flexibility at low temperatures makes them ideal for exposed applications in weather stations, navigation beacons, radar antennas, and airborne and space systems.
Expando® products are tough, lightweight oversleeves used to protect cable assemblies, hoses and wire harnesses from chafing, cutting and abrading. The open-braid construction of Expando products enables each size to expand to fit several application shapes and diameters. This open-textile construction also makes them highly flexible and resistant to trapping water, heat, and humidity.
