Heat resistant glass braided sleeving consists of textile glass with a braided construction which has a high thermal resistance and specially developed impregnation of a silicone resin. Combinations of the two polymers allows the use of this sleeve in electrical insulation applications such as automobile, along with applications with high thermal and mechanical demands.
VIDAFLEX-111 - (Electric Strength 0.8kV Class C 220'C)
The silicone Resin offers a high degree of flexibility
Widely used in Class C rated traction motors and transformers for the insulation of winding lead outs and joints and as additional protection over cables. Vidaflex 111 is used as additional protection where plastic insulated wiring cables enter the hot region of light fittings.
VIDAFLEX-111 - (Electric Strength 0.8kV Class C 220'C)
Supplied in Natural as Standard
Features and Benefits:
Vidaflex 111 insulating sleeves are manufactured from braided 'E' glass yarn impregnated with a silicone resin. The specially formulated silicone resin is applied as an aqueous solution and hence the manufacturing process has no significant environmental hazard with an additional benifit of offering a high degree of flexibility.
The minimum size of the glass yarn filaments is greater than 9 microns and offers no health hazard from inhalation. It is capable of continuous performance at 250'C and will tolerate short term operation up to 450'C.
At temperatures greater than 300'C the silicone resin will be volatilized but will not leave a carbonaceous and conducting residue. Hence, providing the products are not subjected to excessive flexing, the glass sleeving will continue to offer air gap electric strength in dry conditions.
