expandable sleeve sleeve with a ratio ≤ between the minimum diameter by stretching of the sleeve and the maximum diameter by compressing the sleeve in longitudinal direction 3.2 high expandable sleeve sleeve with a ratio > bet ween the minimum diameter by stretching of the sleeve and the maximum diameter by compressing the sleeve in longitudinal direction 3.3 fibre fibre or monofilament fibre or solid fibre which is a thin singular solid strand of plastic 3.4 multifilament fibre a fibre consisting of a group of very thin parallel or twisted fibres 3.5 TEX the mass of multifilament fibres per length, TEX = g/1 000 m Normally used is dTEX (1 TEX is 10 dTEX) 3.6 tow a group of very thin parallel fibres, set on one braiding spool BS EN 6049-001:2015 EN 6049-001:2015 (E) 3.7 braiding angle the angle of crossing fibres in a braiding pattern 3.8 coverage the amount of cover of a braid expressed in percentage 3.9 pitch the pitch is the distance in longitudinal direction between two tows An

types of sleeves are distinguished: — Braided tubular sleeve, expandable, tows of multifilament fibres, providing ease of installation and excellent hold once positioned on the harness, see Figure Braiding pattern Key Pitch tow Figure — Braided tubular sleeve, highly expandable, tows of multifilament fibres, providing ease of installation and excellent hold onc e positioned on the harness It differs from the expandable braided tubular sleeve by its high level of expansion, see Figure BS EN 6049-001:2015 EN 6049-001:2015 (E) Braiding pattern Key Pitch tow Figure — Post installation sleeve, comprising a strip of multifilament fibres covering its whole length, a hook and loop closing system, this being the main feature of this sleeve which enables its use on and removal from harnesses already fitted with connectors The base strip is made from Meta-aramid fibre whereas the closing parts (hook and loop) are made from an appropriate material, see Figure Key Delivered length Closing, hook side Closing, loop side Base strip, form of the sleeve as it is on the delivered spool Base strip, form of the sleeve once installed on the wire harness Figure BS EN 6049-001:2015 EN

Overlap angle Figure — Openable protection sleeve, as delivered Design Protection sleeves are intended to meet the following requirements: — Protection of cables and cable bundles — Resistance to a hostile environment: abrasion, temperature, fire, arc, electromagnetic interferences — Flexibility, minimum mass — The minimum bend radius applicable shall be equal or smaller than the specified minimum bend radius for cables and cable bundles, as specified in EN 3197 — The sleeves are treated especially to reduc e the absorption of water either from humidity or by capillary action when they
