Soft, Flexible Aramid Material 20 Times Stronger Than Steel
(Previously known as Flexo® Aramid) Flexo® KV is a soft, flexible sleeving that’s perfect for bundling and protecting vulnerable components from the most extreme environmental conditions. FA is braided from aramid fibers and has all of Flexo® KV's well-known characteristics of durability, pliability and extraordinary tensile strength. Flexo® KV fibers are up to 20 times stronger than steel fibers of equal diameter. FA has excellent thermal stability, permitting long-term, continuous use at temperatures as low as -274°F and as high as 320°F. Short term exposure up to 572°F can be tolerated. Flexo® KV does not melt or support combustion. FA sleeving provides extreme strength and durability, yet is lightweight and easy to install. Flexo® KV sleeving is available in Yellow. Please note that Flexo® KV is degraded by ultraviolet light. Do not store in direct sunlight. Fluorescent lighting will cause discoloration, but will not affect fiber mechanical properties.
