  • Product Description
    ThermFlex® 1210 is a heat treated and saturated sleeve that provides superior protection against conducted and convective heat. Constructed of braided fiberglass, ThermFlex 1210 is used in high temperature areas to provide superior insulation to components that must maintain elevated temperatures to maximize performance efficiency. ThermFlex 1210’s saturated coating aides in the handling and installation of the product while also providing an increased level of durability compared to uncoated fiberglass sleeving.

    As an insulator, ThermFlex 1210 is used on Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) tubes, thermactor tubes and exhaust system components to provide maximum fuel efficiency and lowered emissions.

    ThermFlex 1210 is also used on wire harnesses, fuel and hydraulic lines, cables and hoses in close proximity to engines and exhaust systems. Its braided construction allows excellent flexibility in temperatures as low as -70ºC (-94ºF).
  • Typical Applications
