STEEL WORK / METAL SMELTING

Glass fiber fire sleeve with heavy silicone coatings have proved to be ideal for protecting cables and components from molten metal splash in the metal smelting industry. Fire sleeves are often used on induction melting furnace wires and hoses.

AEROSPACE

Aerospace grade fire sleeves are available. These are resistant to hydraulic fluids, lubricating oils and fuels. The Aerospace grade fire sleeves version allows qualified hose assemblies to meet AS1055D testing under stated flow and pressure conditions.

OIL RIGS

Glass fiber fire sleeve have been used to protect hoses and cables from harsh environments and to provide protection to personnel where hot hoses or components present a danger.

AUTOMOTIVE & MOTORCYCLE

Glass fiber fire sleeve and tapes have been adopted by performance car enthusiasts. The high temperature wire sleeves give protection to sensitive components allowing bundling of wires, hoses and cables

TRUCK AND BUS EXHAUSTS

High temperature wire sleeve produced from silicone which are capable of withstanding and operating at 560 Degrees Celcius are being used to keep exhaust gases hot before they enter the catalytic converters on certain truck and bus designs.

INDUSTRY

In all industrial areas where sparks might fly and there is a need to protect sensitive electrical components, High temperature wire sleeve can be the solution.

HOSE PROTECTION

High temperature wire sleeve provide additional flexible insulation to control heat loss on hot hoses, and to provide protection to personnel that may come into contact with such hoses.

GENERATOR EXHAUSTS

High temperature wire sleeve are often used on the exhausts of generators to aid noise reduction and to provide protection for personnel working near the hot pipes.

CABLE & WIRING SYSTEMS

High temperature wire sleeve will give additional protection to cables and wires which pass close to any heat source. Typical examples would be in boilers, ovens and furnaces.

SPECIAL APPLICATIONS

High temperature wire sleeve are used in special applications – including additional insulation on fire fighting breathing apparatus hoses. High temperature wire sleeve protects the hose from falling hot debris which could potentially damage the apparatus in service.
