### **What is a cable sleeve?**

Cable sleeves or sheathing offer protection for cables from abrasive environments whilst also optimising space as they can be used to bundle cables together or insulate a single cable. Their use is ideal for avoiding tangles, hiding unsightly cables and making a cable area safe. A sleeve can be flexible, solid, expandable, braided or mesh, in fact they are available in multiple materials, shapes and sizes. RS offers a wide range of sleeving which can be durable and versatile.

###  **What are the types of cable sleeving?**

There are several types of cable sleeving materials available, each with its own unique characteristics and benefits. Here are some common types of cable sleeving:

- **PET (Polyethylene Terephthalate)**: PET sleeving is lightweight, flexible, and durable. It's expandable, making it suitable for bundling various cable sizes.
- **Nylon**: Nylon cable sleeving is known for its strength and abrasion resistance. It offers excellent protection for cables in rugged environments.
- **Braided Sleeving**: Braided sleeving is made by weaving fibres together to create a tubular structure. It provides good protection against abrasion and is expandable to accommodate different cable sizes.
- **Heat Shrink Tubing**: While not a traditional cable sleeving, heat shrink tubing is often used to protect and insulate individual cables or wire bundles.
- **Fabric**: Fabric cable sleeving has a soft and tactile feel. It's often used for aesthetic purposes, offering a more natural look compared to plastic-based options.
- **Silicone**: Silicone cable sleeving is heat-resistant and provides good insulation and protection against moisture and chemicals. It's commonly used in industrial and automotive applications.
- **Metal Mesh**: Metal mesh cable sleeving, usually made of stainless steel, provides high-level protection against abrasion and mechanical damage. It's often used in heavy-duty applications where cables are exposed to extreme conditions.
