Expando® Overview

Expando® products are tough, lightweight oversleeves used to protect cable assemblies, hoses and wire harnesses from chafing, cutting and abrading. The braided construction of Expando products enables each size to expand to fit several application shapes and diameters. This open textile construction also makes them highly flexible and resistant to trapping water, heat and humidity.

Product Spotlight: Expando® 686DM


Expando® 686DM is an expandable oversleeve designed for abrasion protection in high temperature environments. Featuring a dual monofilament construction, Expando 686DM blends larger PEEK (polyetheretherketone) guard strands with PPS (polyphenylene sulfide) support strands. The inherent properties of the raw materials give Expando 686DM low levels of flammability, toxicity, smoke generation, and hard vacuum offgassing.
