    Monofilament Braid Sleeves Protect Wiring and Cables

    March 6, 2015

    Atkins and Pearce’s Armour Guard line offers 11 expandable monofilament sleeves for protecting wires, cables, and hoses in a variety of environments. Heavy-duty braids target rugged applications for abrasion protection. Flame-retardant braids are used in industrial and high-tech applications to quickly self-extinguish and minimize fire damage and spreading. And Halar braids for HVAC applications prevent toxic gases from spreading in a system and are resistant to high temperatures. The sleeves come in sizes ranging from 3/16 to 5 in.
