GAFMIL

GAFMIL convoluted tubing is specifically designed to provide the protection benefits of a non­slit tube with the ease of assembly of a slit tube. It is a one piece slit closeable plastic convoluted tube made of two C shaped shells connected by a hinge, locking onto each other. The first convolute portion takes place on the wire harness, the second portion pivots thanks to the hinge and covers the first one.

The overlap between the two convoluted portions avoids the risk of wire exposure, even in low radius curve zones.

0val Tubing

0VAL TUBING is a convoluted tube extruded in an oval shape specially designed to protect and route electrical cables in vehicles. The oval shape design keeps the wire bundle in a flat position, ideal for confined spaces. For instance, 0VAL TUBING is well suited to underbody applications and door panel harnesses.

0VAL TUBING can be made of two combined sections: flexible (convoluted) and straight (rigid).This option makes 0VAL TUBING a customized product: straight and flexible sections are combined depending on the routing needs. This convoluted tubing can be delivered slit or nonslit to fit to specific applications.

Nu-Guard SC-P

The flat-knit construction of the NU-GUARD SC-P is made of PET monofilament and textured multifilament combination; which gives a lightweight, rugged but yet smooth texture and appearance. The NU-GUARD SC-P is then shaped cylindrically with an overlap (self-closing sleeve).

The self-closure construction of the NU-GUARD SC-P is ideal for reworking components without disconnecting them and ensures a protection of wires with a 90° minimum overlap. The knitted construction provides good drainage, while maintaining superior abrasion resistance. NU-GUARD SC-P versions are particularly suited to protect and bundle wire harnesses, cable assemblies and hoses from cutting, abrasion and chafing.

The NU-GUARD SC-P ORANGE is also available. This sleeve has been designed to identify high voltage wiring harnesses on hybrid and electric vehicles.

Langoflex G

LANGOFLEX G is a tough, lightweight expandable sleeving made of PET .010” (0.25mm) monofilaments braided into a cylindrical sleeve. LANGOFLEX G provides excellent abrasion and good mechanical properties. The flexible open weave construction allows each size to expand up to three times its original diameter for easy installation over irregular shapes. This construction also provides complete drainage preventing heat, condensation and moisture.

LANGOFLEX G is also available in a heavy wall construction (LANGOFLEX HD), using .015” (0.38mm) diameter PET monofilaments for increased wear resistance and in a flame retardant version (LANGOFLEX G-FR). LANGOFLEX G is designed to protect tubes, hoses, wires, wire bundles, wire harnesses, cable assemblies and flat ribbon cables without adding critical weight, bulk and extra cost.
