Flame Retardant Flexo® Tight Weave™ cable sleeving is designed for applications where both flame resistance and accessibility are required. Originally developed with aircraft manufacturers as an upgrade to standard grade flame-retardant sleeving, it provides enhanced coverage for wire harnesses using a tightly braided construction.

Made from 9 mil flame-retardant monofilament, the dense braid improves abrasion resistance while maintaining effective protection. The use of 9 mil material, rather than 10 mil, reduces overall weight without compromising performance, supporting applications where both durability and weight considerations are important.

What Does ‘Flame Retardant’ Mean?

Flame retardant refers to a substance or material that is designed to resist or delay the ignition and spread of flames. Flame retardants work by interrupting the chemical reactions that occur when a material is exposed to heat or flames. They can prevent or slow down the release of flammable gases, reduce the amount of oxygen available for combustion, or create a protective layer that shields the material from the fire.

Flame Retardant Vs. Non-Flammable

Flame retardant: These materials are designed to resist flames and prevent or slow the spread of fire. These materials are treated with special chemicals that react to heat and flames, creating a barrier that can help protect against fire and reduce the risk of damage or injury.

Non-Flammable: These materials are those that do not burn or ignite at all, even when exposed to heat or flames. These materials may be made from special types of metals or other materials that have a very high melting point or are inherently resistant to fire.
