General
Colour	Black

The cable protection sleeves 12-542 TPE black from Ses-Sterling are specifically designed for protecting cables and lines during penetrations. As rubber sleeves made of TPE (Thermoplastic Elastomer), they offer a flexible yet robust solution to protect cables from mechanical stress, particularly bending and kinking damage. The product is available in the color black and is supplied in a package containing 100 pieces. The sleeves are suitable for use in electrical and IT installations, where durable protection is required for cable penetrations.

Applications
These cable protection sleeves are used in industrial electrical installations, building technology, and IT infrastructure. They are employed to guide cables through wall or ceiling penetrations, simultaneously protecting them from mechanical influences such as pressure, friction, or bending. Their use in combination with cable protection conduits, penetration boxes, or other installation elements is common. The sleeves are particularly suitable for systems requiring high flexibility and simultaneous mechanical stability.

Functions and Features in Detail
The sleeves are made of TPE, a thermoplastic elastomer known for its elastic properties and resistance to mechanical stress. The black color is standard and meets common requirements in electrical and IT installations. The sleeves are designed to be easily slipped over cables, ensuring secure guidance. Their shape allows for optimal fit in penetrations and prevents cables from slipping. The package contains 100 pieces, sufficient for larger installations or series mounting.

Technical Explanation
TPE is a plastic that combines the properties of rubber with the processability of thermoplastics. This means the sleeves are flexible and elastic, yet retain their shape even under repeated stress. The kink protection function is achieved through the specific shape and material selection: the sleeves prevent cables from being damaged during penetration through tight openings or bends. The material thickness is sufficient to absorb mechanical stress during operation without impairing cable flexibility. The sleeves are not intended for use in explosive environments, as no relevant certifications are mentioned.

Compatibility and Accessories
The cable protection sleeves 12-542 TPE are suitable for use with various cable types and penetration elements. They can be combined with cable protection conduits, penetration boxes, or other installation components to ensure a sealed and protective path. Their use in cable ducts or during the installation of socket outlets and switches is also possible. The sleeves are not specified for use in damp or wet environments, as no IP rating or water tightness is indicated.

Installation and Mounting
Installation is performed by simply sliding the sleeve over the cable and then inserting it into the penetration. The sleeve adapts to the cable diameter and ensures secure guidance. No special tools are required, as the sleeves are elastic and easily stretchable. Installation typically does not require additional fastening elements, as the sleeve shape ensures secure holding.

Operational Advantages
Using these cable protection sleeves reduces the risk of cable damage due to mechanical stress, thereby increasing operational safety. The sleeves are easy to install and require no special tools. The material quality ensures long service life and reliable performance in daily use. The package of 100 pieces enables efficient handling in larger projects. The sleeves are not intended for use in explosive environments, as no relevant certifications are mentioned.
