China High-Temperature Silicone Fiberglass Sleeves - Reliable Insulation from Leading Suppliers and Factory

,

Product Overview

,

Our Silicone Fiberglass Sleeve, also known as fiber casing or fiberglass insulation sleeve, is a top-tier electrical insulating protective tubing produced by leading China suppliers. Crafted by braiding high-quality alkali-free glass fiber yarn into a strong tubular substrate, this product is coated with advanced resins such as PVC, silicone resin, or silicone rubber. The manufacturing process involves plastification or vulcanization to enhance its performance. This innovative product line merges the superior high strength and heat resistance attributes of fiberglass with exceptional qualities from the various coating materials, including insulation, flame retardancy, and chemical resistance. As a result, it offers outstanding mechanical protection and environmental resilience for wires, harnesses, and components used in motors, electrical appliances, instruments, and a broad range of industrial equipment. Key variants include PVC fiberglass sleeve, silicone resin fiberglass sleeve, and silicone rubber fiberglass sleeve (commonly referred to as fire-resisting sleeves). We are a trusted factory delivering these high-performance solutions to meet diverse industrial needs.

Product Features & Core Advantages
  • Excellent High-Temperature Resistance

    Benefiting from the stability of the fiberglass substrate, the products offer a wide operating temperature range. For instance, silicone rubber fiberglass sleeve can be used continuously from -65°C to 260°C while maintaining flexibility. Silicone resin fiberglass sleeve has a continuous operating temperature of up to 200°C, with short-term tolerance of 260°C. PVC fiberglass sleeve withstands temperatures up to 105°C. Some fiber casings are suitable for continuous high-temperature operation at 538°C.

  • Superior Electrical Insulation

    The products possess strong insulating capabilities, suitable for high-voltage environments. For example, silicone resin fiberglass sleeve has voltage withstand ratings from 1200V to 7000V, with some products rated at 1.5KV, 4KV, or higher. The room temperature breakdown voltage for PVC fiberglass sleeve is 2000V. Their dielectric properties, voltage endurance, arc resistance, and corona resistance are excellent, making them ideal electrical insulation materials.

  • Reliable Flame Retardancy & Fire Safety

    Most products feature good self-extinguishing properties, quenching rapidly upon removal from a flame source, and comply with flame retardant standards like VW-1. Products like silicone rubber fiberglass sleeve are also known as fire-resisting sleeves and serve as safe, eco-friendly alternatives to hazardous materials like asbestos.

  • Good Mechanical & Chemical Protection

    The braided structure provides good flexibility and bend adaptability, facilitating wiring in complex spaces. Additionally, the products offer tear resistance, abrasion resistance, and provide a degree of water, oil, ozone, and chemical stability, protecting internal cables from mechanical damage and chemical corrosion.

Installation & Usage Guide
  • ◎ Selection Guide: Choose the appropriate coating type and size based on the maximum operating temperature, required insulation level (voltage rating), harness diameter, and flame retardancy requirements of the actual application environment.

    ◎ Installation Method: Slide the sleeving directly over the wire or harness to be protected. It can be cut to specific lengths as needed. Its flexibility allows easy bending to follow wiring paths.

    ◎ Precautions:
      • Although heat resistant, avoid prolonged direct contact with open flames or extreme heat sources exceeding the product's rated temperature.
      • For applications requiring embedding in walls or concrete, note that wire replacement during maintenance might be more difficult compared to rigid conduit, and concrete curing may cause slight deformation of the sleeve.
      • Store in a cool, dry place away from prolonged direct sunlight to slow material aging.
