The braided sleeve Pliosil PET 12 grey from Ses-Sterling is a protective sleeve made of polyester terephthalate (PET), designed for use in the field of electrical and IT installation. It serves as a mechanical protective covering for cables and lines, particularly in areas where high flexibility and simultaneous protection against external influences such as dust, moisture, or mechanical stress are required. The sleeve is available in the colour grey and is delivered in a packaging length of 50 metres.
Applications
The Pliosil PET 12 is suitable for use in indoor environments as well as in protected outdoor areas, where cables and lines must be protected against mechanical damage, such as pressure, friction, or light impact loads. It is frequently used in building installation, industrial and machine construction applications, as well as in IT infrastructure, to neatly route cable bundles and protect them from contamination. The grey colour allows for discreet integration into technical environments.
Functions and Equipment in Detail
The sleeve consists of a braid made of PET fibres, offering high tensile strength and flexibility. The fibres are processed to form a uniform, dense structure that ensures effective protection. The grey colour is resistant to UV radiation and light ageing, which increases the durability of the sleeve in both indoor and outdoor environments. The packaging length of 50 metres enables efficient installation without frequent connection points, simplifying the installation process and enhancing the mechanical integrity of the cable connection.
Technology Explained Simply
The braided sleeve Pliosil PET 12 is made from polyester terephthalate (PET), a synthetic polymer known for its high strength, heat resistance, and chemical resistance. The braid is designed to slide easily over cables, forming a tight covering. The specific weight of 12.5 g per metre indicates that the sleeve is lightweight, facilitating handling and installation. The material selection ensures long service life and resistance to environmental influences such as moisture or temperature fluctuations.
Compatibility and Accessories
The sleeve is compatible with a wide range of cable types and lines, particularly standard IT and electrical cables. It can be combined with other products from the Pliosil series to meet different requirements for protection, colour, or diameter. The use of cable glands or cable ties is recommended to secure the sleeve at the ends and prevent cables from slipping out.
Installation and Mounting
Installation is carried out by simply sliding the sleeve over the cables to be protected. Due to its flexible structure, the sleeve can be easily pulled over cable bundles without damaging the cables. The ends of the sleeve should be secured with cable ties or cable glands to prevent shifting or cables from falling out. The packaging length of 50 metres allows for continuous installation over long distances, minimizing the number of connection points.
Operational Advantages
The Pliosil PET 12 provides reliable mechanical protection for cables and lines without impairing cable flexibility. Material strength ensures long service life, even under load. The grey colour is neutral and blends well into technical environments. The easy handling and long packaging length increase installation efficiency.
