RS PRO Braided Acrylic Fibreglass Cable Sleeve, Red, 2mm Diameter, 5m Length, IEC 60684-3, UL 1441, Model 398-745

RS PRO model 398-745 is a braided acrylic fibreglass cable sleeve designed to offer robust insulation and protection for cables and wires in demanding electrical, industrial, and commercial environments. It features a 2mm maximum cable diameter and a sleeve length of 5m, making it suitable for wire harness management and individual cable protection. The red colour ensures high visibility and easy identification within assemblies.

This cable sleeve is manufactured from high-quality Class F braided fibreglass, impregnated with acrylic resin, which results in a tough yet flexible structure. The halogen-free nature of the materials ensures that, when exposed to fire, the sleeve does not emit toxic gases, making it safer for workplace environments.

The braided construction provides excellent mechanical and abrasion resistance, reliably safeguarding cables against sharp edges, high impacts, vibration, and mechanical stress. It maintains critical electrical properties even after flexing, supporting a wide range of applications.

With a dielectric strength of 1kV, the sleeve delivers high-quality electrical insulation for motors, transformers, lighting fixtures, and domestic appliances. Its temperature resistance, ranging from -25°C to 155°C, supports operation under broad industrial conditions. The material is also resistant to oils, fluids, and aggressive chemicals, supporting installation in laboratories, manufacturing, and HVAC settings.

Installation is straightforward: select the required diameter, cut the sleeve to length using scissors or hot cutting tools to prevent fraying, and fit over the cable. The sleeve is compatible with most insulating varnishes and maintains performance with Class F impregnating resins.

Applications include industrial cable protection, wire harness in manufacturing, laboratory installations, HVAC systems, commercial electrical setups, and more. The high mechanical strength and versatile properties make it ideal for environments with high abrasion risk.

Insulates and protects cables in motors, transformers, lighting, and domestic appliances. Sustains mechanical, chemical, and electrical performance under harsh conditions. Complies with IEC 60684-3, RoHS, and UL 1441 standards.
