Expando® PPS (polyphenylene sulfide) is an expandable sleeve designed for mechanical protection in high temperatures. Rated to +200ºC (+392ºC), Expando® PPS meets VW-1 flame test requirements.
The inherent properties of PPS give Expando® PPS low levels of flammability, toxicity, smoke generation and hard vacuum off-gassing. Because of its high use temperature, Expando® PPS resists damage from high-temperature air guns used with heat-shrinkable elements such as strain reliefs, terminations and identification sleeves.
Expando® PPS is used in the aerospace industry for its outstanding properties in extreme environments. This product should be considered for aircraft, space, military, marine, and hostile-environment applications.
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.
