Fibre Optic Sleeves

For different applications, we can offer different sleeving materials.
As standard, our fibre optic cables and bifurcated cables are protected by a Kevlar reinforced polypropylene inner tubing with PVC red outer jacket. All of our standard reflection probes are protected by a flexible chrome-plated brass outer tube, with hooked profile for optimal strain relief with silicon or PTFE inner tubing.
For waterproof and some medical applications, stainless steel spiral tubing with glassilk and gray outer silicon rubber coating can be provided. Inside this tubing, silicon or PTFE inner tubing is used as well.
For small, flexible endoscopic probes, we use a PVC rubber sleeving.
Some specifics on the sleevings can be found in the following technical information.
