How does the braid behave when inserting multiple conductors?

The braided structure expands to accommodate several conductors while maintaining a snug grip, reducing movement and wear between cables.

What are the electrical properties related to the material?

The tinned copper braid provides a conductive sheath that can assist in earthing or EMI mitigation when correctly terminated to a chassis connection.

How should the sleeve be terminated for secure installation?

Termination is typically achieved with crimped metal sleeves or heat-shrinkable ferrules clamped to the braid ends to prevent fraying and ensure mechanical and electrical continuity.

Is the product suited to long continuous runs through ducting?

Yes, supplied as a 30m roll it permits continuous installation without splicing, simplifying routing through ducts and conduits.
