The braided sleeve Pliosil PET 8 from Ses-Sterling is a protective sleeve made of polyester terephthalate (PET), specifically developed for use in electrical and IT installations. It provides mechanical protection and organization for cables and wiring in indoor and outdoor applications. The grey colour enables unobtrusive integration into technical environments without impairing functionality. The sleeve is packaged in a length of 100 metres, making it suitable for larger installations requiring continuous routing.
Applications
The Pliosil PET 8 is used in industrial electrical installations, building automation, and IT infrastructure. It protects cables from mechanical influences such as pressure, friction, and contamination. Due to its PET material composition, it is resistant to many chemical influences, making it suitable for applications in environments with low to moderate chemical exposure. Its use is particularly common in areas requiring flexible yet stable cable routing, for example in machine building, production halls, or in the cabling of server and network environments.
Functions and Features in Detail
The sleeve features a braided structure that offers high flexibility and simultaneous stability. The PET fibre structure provides good tensile strength and resistance to wear. The grey colour is not only aesthetically neutral but also easily identifiable during inspections. The packaging unit of 100 metres offers economical handling, especially in larger projects where continuous routing without frequent connections is required.
Technology Explained Simply
The braided sleeve consists of a braid made of polyester terephthalate fibres, which, due to its structured interweaving, offers high mechanical load capacity. The material selection ensures long service life under normal operating conditions. The weight of 8.1 grams per metre is low, facilitating handling and installation, especially over longer distances. The packaging weight of 0.81 kg corresponds to the total weight of the 100-metre roll, taking into account transportation and storage properties.
Compatibility and Accessories
The sleeve is compatible with standard cables and wiring commonly used in electrical and IT installations. It can be combined with various cable tie or gland systems to ensure secure fastening. The use of suitable cable glands or cable ties is recommended to achieve proper fixation. There are no specific accessory items explicitly mentioned in the manufacturer’s offering; however, the use of standard industry accessories is common practice.
Installation and Mounting
Installation is performed by simply sliding the sleeve over the cables to be protected. The flexible structure allows easy bending and adaptation to different routing geometries. During installation, care should be taken to avoid excessive tension on the sleeve to prevent material fatigue. The use of cable ties or glands is recommended to secure positioning. The packaging unit of 100 metres allows continuous routing without forced cuts, increasing work speed.
