Spiral Wrap Tubing to Provide Protection against the Abrasion

As per the name, spiral wrap refers to the tubing that covers bunch of wires in curved shaped moving towards downwards direction or vice-versa. Well, it is a tubing that is enforced in an enlarging way to protect wires and cables from abrasion which may take place between them due to excess of temperature as an impact of their regular wear and tear process. The worth mentioning feature of this tubing system is that despite of wires covered under it, the tubing system does not lose its flexibility even when the wires are bent tightly inside it.

While, discussing the major features of this wrapping, it would be interested to know that most of its features, for instance chemical resistance, heat resistance (capable of bearing temperature up-to 500 degree F), self extinguishing, ROhS compliant and availability wide range of colors, they are also sometimes called as spiral wrap PTFE tubing. Normally, this type of tubing system is used in wires that are installed in long direction allowing flow of powerful current from one direction to another. As a general practice, these tubings are highly used in automotive, aircraft and aviation industries, where powerful wires are installed for smooth functioning of different operations.

The major benefits enjoyed by use of this wiring system are referred below:

  • The most prominent feature of spiral wrap is that it can be easily installed at different places whether it is your home, office, warehouse or any other place without use of any specific tools. To install such type of high quality fluoropolymer tubing on any of the wires, you just have to wrap it in curved shape up-to the length till you want to cover the specified wiring system. In this way this tubing system can also be used for upgrading the existing wiring system and providing complete protection.

  • Because of the material used in the development of such teflon tubing system, it provides protection against abrasion, chaffing of sensitive cables, providing them high degree of flexibility.
  • An interesting benefit by the coating of spiral wrap on high resisting wire system is that they can be installed on all types of wires without consideration of temperature where these wires will be used.
  • Last but not least, the benefit of these tubes are that its use is not restricted only to specific industries but can be used by all types of industries where work is performed under high degree of temperature.
