Aramid Armor®
Soft & Pliable But With 5 Times The Strength Of Steel
What's special about Aramid Armor®?
- Woven from aramid fibers, this sleeving is 5 times stronger than steel for superior cable protection.
- Remains very flexible despite its strength, ensuring easy routing around bends.
- Expands up to 85% to accept large connectors or otherwise irregularly shaped assemblies.
- Resists acids, fuels, solvents, fire and cutting for high performance in the most brutal of environments.
- Ideal for use in marine, military, aerospace, and many other applications.

Aramid Armor® Heavy Duty Cable Sleeving resists abrasion, cutting, chemicals, and high heat for superior performance in a plethora of applications. Despite its strength, Aramid Armor is very flexible and will have no problem conforming to the curves of your application; whether it's under the hood of a HMMV or behind the cockpit of a commercial airliner.
*Please note that Aramid Armor is degraded by ultraviolet light. Do not store in direct sunlight. Fluoescent lighting will cause discoloration, but will not affect fiber mechanical properties.
Splice Free Spooling:
Some splices are normal during the braiding process. Usually, not more than one or two splices will be on any given spool. Ordering splice-free spools guarantees the maximum continuous yield on your spools. This option is suggested when ordering large lengths of sleeving or for important and precise projects. This treatment is most applicable in lengths that exceed 100 feet. In general, shorter lengths will be splice free as they come off the spools.
