Spando-NTT® represents an extensive range of abrasion resistant sleeves designed to prolong lifetime of wire/cables harnesses used in the automotive, industrial, rail and aerospace markets. Each single product has its own specific purpose; whether lightweight, protective against crush, chemically resistant, mechanically robust, flexible, easily fitted or thermally insulating.
The entire product range has been built by using extremely high-quality grades of polymers such as Polyethylene Terephthalate (PET), Polyamide 6 and 66 (PA6, PA66), Polyphenylene sulphide (PPS) and chemically modified Polyethylene (PE). To reach good balance of mechanical, physical and chemical performances, combinations of different polymers within a single product has been adopted. This allowed to enhance determined characteristics to overcome specific issues, such extreme mechanical stresses and chemical attacks contemporaneously.
Spando-NTT® finds extensive application for the automotive industry, protecting high voltage cables, wire harnesses, rubber hoses or plastic tubes against abrasion, extreme high/low temperature stresses, mechanical damages and chemical attacks.
The sleeves are easily installed on components and can offer different expansion rates that allow fitting on bulky connectors. Depending on the level of required abrasion classes, sleeves with different surface coverage rate are offered. For standard application, a surface coverage of 75% is enough. However, we can offer expandable sleeves with superior coverage area up to 95%.
