Applications
Used as a conduit to pro-
vide mechanical protection
for electrical wiring systems
in applications requiring
flexibility, high-temperature
performance and good
resistance to a variety of
fluids. Widely used in the
military and commercial
aerospace industries.

with other Raychem
components to form an
integrated harnessing
system.
Specifications/Approvals
Installation
It is recommended that
no more than 70% of the
