Braided Expandable Sleeving
Global Passenger Rail Standards Compliance
Panduit Braided expandable sleeving is made from a polyethylene terephthalate material
that is compliant with U.S. and many European re safety standards for passenger rail
rolling stock.
Each section below identi es the applicable Country/Region standards and includes a
summary of data gathered from independent lab tests conducted on the braided expandable
sleeving. The independent lab test reports are available upon request (see end of document).
