DWN6.00BK - Dura Wrap - 6" - Black - 3 ft cuts

Techflex® Dura Wrap

Dura Wrap is the perfect solution for organizing and controlling wires, cables and hoses that are subjected to constant and extreme use with easy access. This flexible sleeving is made from tightly woven ballistic Nylon® with an aggressive, industrial strength hook and loop closure. Dura Wrap is great for bundles of wires to keep them together, for hoses and cables to prevent abrasion damage, or for chains to keep them from ruining expensive finished surfaces. Easy installation (just cut and wrap) reduces downtime and eliminates the need to disassemble existing components to install. Please Note: Dura Wrap Material Diameters Are Measured When Round, Not Flat

Measuring Dura Wrap

Dura Wrap material sizes are measured when the product is round. Please Note, Measuring Dura Wrap when it is laid flat does NOT result in an accurate measurement of its diameter. For questions regarding sizing comparisons please see the chart below. In order to ensure the proper fit on your application, measure the diameter of your bundle and order that corresponding diameter size of Dura Wrap.

• DWN1.00 -- Diameter 1" -- Flat Width 4 3/8"
• DWN1.50 -- Diameter 1 1/2" -- Flat Width 6"
• DWN2.00 -- Diameter 2" -- Flat Width 7 3/4"
• DWN2.50 -- Diameter 2 1/2" -- Flat Width 9 1/8"
• DWN3.00 -- Diameter 3" -- Flat Width 11"
• DWN3.50 -- Diameter 3 1/2" -- Flat Width 13 1/8"
• DWN4.00 -- Diameter 4" -- Flat Width 14 3/4"
• DWN4.50 -- Diameter 4 1/2" -- Flat Width 16 1/2"
• DWN6.00 -- Diameter 6" -- Flat Width 20 7/8"
• DWN8.00 -- Diameter 8" -- Flat Width 27 1/8"

Protect Your Cables & Hoses From Damage

Heavy Duty Braided sleeving is ideal for use in applications where protecting wires & hoses from abrasion damage is a primary concern. These sleeving products are designed to endure high abrasion environments where flying debris & dragging along abrasive surfaces are common. These products also provide protection again dirt & grime. Heavy duty braided sleeving is designed to withstand exposure to the elements and can provide protection against UV rays, moisture, and other environmental factors, making it a good choice for outdoor applications. Some common industries that require the extra protection of heavy duty sleeving include: Marine, Mining, Construction, Agriculture, Automotive, & more.

Tips for Installing & Terminating Braided Sleeving

How To Determine What Diameter Sleeving You Need

Bundle the cords that you’ll be covering and measure the diameter of the bundle. If you want a snug fit, choose a braided sleeving option with a slightly smaller diameter than that of your cables. If you want a loose and flexible fit, choose a braided sleeving option with a diameter that is equal to or slightly larger than that of your cables. Keep in mind that braided sleeving loses 2% to 3% of its length when it expands. Be sure to plan accordingly!

How To Terminate Sleeving with Heatshrink Tubing

Heatshrink Tubing is the ideal way to create a tight, professional finish on any wire, hose or cable management project. Once shrunk, the tubing will hold its reduced state, even at elevated temperatures. This application can be used to protect, color code, brand, or secure ends or sections of braided sleeving. A Heat Gun is required to properly apply heatshrink tubing. You can find a guide to the proper technique for working with heatshrink tubing Here.

How to Choose The Correct Braided Sleeving

A lot of factors go into determining the correct braided sleeving wire protection method for your project. We’ve broken it down to help you narrow your search:

• Operating Temp: Is your wire harness going to be regularly exposed to extreme temperatures or possible flames? The operating temperature of your harness is a critical consideration when choosing sleeving to ensure that the sleeving you select can withstand the intended environment and provide adequate protection.
• Flexibility & Expansion Ratio: Flexibility is an important factor if your wire harness will be snaking around a lot of corners or curves or is frequently moving. Expansion ratio refers to the amount by which the diameter of a braided sleeving can increase when stretched. The expansion ratio of braided sleeving can vary depending on the material it is made of and the construction of the braiding.
• Material: Braided sleeving is available in a wide range of materials to provide different levels of abrasion, UV, and chemical resistance. Material also effects wire harness weight, EMI protection, and flexibility.
• Cutting Tool: Checking the recommended cutting tool for a sleeving product allows you to ensure you have the tools necessary for the job. If using a hot knife is not feasible for you, be sure to look for sleeving options that can be cut fraylessly with scissors.
• Sleeve Vs. Wrap: If you are consistently changing the wires & cables of your harness then a split wrap may be a better option for you than a solid sleeving product to installation is fast & easy.
• Industry & Environment:Techflex® braided sleeving products are organized into categories based on the most common uses of each product. If you work in a specific industry, visiting the corresponding product category may be a fast way to see applicable sleeving options for your project.
• Color choices: Braided sleeving is great for matching, color coding, and to identify wires & cables. If color coding is your goal, make sure the product you are considering offers enough colors for your project.
