The Pliosil PET V0 20 braided sleeve from Ses-Sterling is a black-coloured protective sleeve made of polyester, designed for use in electrical and IT installations. It serves as a mechanical and thermal protective covering for cables and wiring, particularly in areas where high flexibility and simultaneous protective function are required. The designation PET V0 refers to the material used (polyester) and its flame retardancy according to UL 94 V0, indicating self-extinguishing properties when exposed to fire. The sleeve is supplied in a length of 50 metres, making it suitable for larger installations.

Braided sleeve

The sleeve is designed as a braided sleeve, meaning it is made from a woven or braided material that offers high flexibility and simultaneous mechanical stability. The fibre structure allows for easy installation, as the sleeve can be easily pulled over cables without damaging them. The black colour ensures unobtrusive integration into technical systems and prevents distracting light reflection.

Functions and equipment in detail

The Pliosil PET V0 20 provides effective protection against mechanical stress, such as scratches, friction or minor impact loads. The polyester fibre used is resistant to many chemical influences and offers high resistance to UV radiation, making it suitable for outdoor use, provided there is no direct, prolonged exposure to sunlight. The flame retardancy according to UL 94 V0 ensures that the sleeve does not continue to burn when in contact with a flame and extinguishes itself quickly, meeting fire safety requirements in many installations.

Technology explained simply

The designation PET V0 describes the material (polyester) and the flame class (V0 according to UL 94). The V0 classification means that during a flame exposure test, the sleeve self-extinguishes within 10 seconds and does not allow flame spread beyond 25 mm. This is a standard in electrical and IT technology to enhance safety during cable installations. The weight specification of 18.2 g per metre indicates that this is a lightweight product that does not impose additional load on the cables.

Compatibility and accessories

The sleeve is universally applicable and can be combined with various cable types, particularly data cables, power cables and control lines. It is suitable for use in enclosures, machine construction, automation technology and building installations. Installation is carried out by simply sliding the sleeve over the cables, with the fibre structure ensuring secure fixation.

Installation and mounting

Installation is performed by manually sliding the sleeve over the cables to be protected. Due to the material's flexibility, no special tools are required. The 50-metre length allows for continuous installation without frequent connections. During installation, care should be taken to avoid excessive compression or bending of the sleeve to maintain functionality and service life.

Advantages in operation

The sleeve provides durable protection without impairing cable flexibility. The high mechanical stability and flame retardancy increase safety in technical systems. The lightweight design reduces cable load and facilitates handling. The black colour ensures unobtrusive integration into technical environments, making the sleeve both functionally and aesthetically suitable for use.
