Types of outer packaging materials for electronic wire harnesses and cables

Cables and electronic harnesses are often used in a variety of environments. Their outer packaging materials provide additional insulation against abrasion, chemicals, electromagnetic interference, fluids, heat, moisture, etc. Harnesses can be protected in a variety of configurations depending on factors such as color, material, and size. Then Suzhou connector manufacturer Huichengyuan will introduce the types of outer packaging materials commonly used for cables and electronic harnesses. 1.Heat shrink tubing Heat shrink tubing is tightly wrapped around the wires to smooth the rough surface and provide thermal and electrical insulation. Adhesive backed tubing provides a strong seal to prevent moisture and chemicals from corroding the harness assembly. A heat gun is required, which increases production time and may be difficult to apply to the entire harness. 2.sleeving sleeving expandable or packable sleeving is easy to install and highly flexible for quick, easy wire bundling. Braided polyethylene sleeving is popular because it is durable and lightweight, allowing complete flexibility in any direction, even at low temperatures, allowing cable assemblies and wire harnesses to be bent repeatedly without damage. 3.Spiral Wound Tubing Spiral Wound Tubing allows cables and electrical harnesses to enter and exit the outer packaging material at multiple points and is also available in a variety of colors for easy identification, for example, orange is commonly used for high voltage applications. 4. Split Loom Tubes Split loom tubes are generally cut down from the side for easy insertion of cables and electronic harnesses. The cut is closed after installation, eliminating the need for heat-shrink or dispensing ends, which reduces production time. Plastic tubes are usually made of polyamide, polyethylene, or polypropylene. However, handling and wiring without compression can be cumbersome. 5.Adhesive Tapes Single-coated pressure-sensitive adhesive tapes are available in a variety of backing materials and pressure-sensitive adhesives. PVC is the most commonly used tape material, but other materials can also be used, including cloth, felt, foam, and aluminum foil. In addition, the tape minimizes the flexibility of the wiring harness.
