Managing the Wires and Cables By Using Spiral Wrap

Wrap is one of the commonly word used in our day-to-day activities, especially at the time when we need to cover

anything with an objective to protect it from any kind of unexpected and untimely damage. Similarly, Spiral Wrap is

defined as protective measure that is adopted to protect the bunch of wires and cables from abrasion and exposure

resulting in some unexpected loss of assets and life.

The process of covering wires is same as offered for books that are bind spirally with plastic wire moving simultaneously

in upward and downward direction. The only difference is that material used for developing PTFE spiral wrap for

industries to cover wires is made from material that is capable of working smoothly under extreme heat. An interesting

feature of wrapping system is that all the wires in the bunch are wrapped tightly but still succeeds in maintaining their

flexibility without breaking them in tough bending. In simple words, it can be said that spiral is chemical resistance and

does not get damaged when put in different solvents, alkalis or acids.

The major characteristic features of spiral wrap tubing system are summarized below:

Capable for working under extreme temperature up-to 500°F;

Available in different colors for the identity of the cable or wire;

It is self extinguishing;

Applicable on MIL-T-47287, ASTM D 3295 specifications.

Now, a question arises that which are the industries in which spiral wrap tubing system is highly used. Interestingly, this

type of tubing is used all those types of work at where there is need of wrapping bundles or bunch of wires in a group

for smooth working of machinery. This type of tubing system is not developed specifically for any industry but can also

be used at our homes, offices or shops. In simple term at every place where we have to cope with bunch of wires for

instance if you are running a computer center or a showroom of electronic appliances where you have to manage bunch

of wires spread over the area for different units. To protect these cables, you will obviously have to look for an

appropriate solution which could protect them from damage due to regular wear and tear as sometimes broken cables

may also result in some serious accident. It is the time where spiral wrap tubing system exhibits its relevance and is used

to cover such wires to control any type of damage that might take place due to individual abrasion between wires.

Developed from durable polymer that despite of being flexible, is blessed with thick protective cover that works as

protection sheet for various cables and wires, offering flexible moment to them even when they are tightly covered with

a protective sheet. Spiral wrap tubing system has proved to be a robust solution for industries like mining or

construction industries where extensive use of cables and wires is made for finishing varied operations. An appreciating

factor of spiral wrap is that it can bent into any shape and in any direction but it does not break the wires behind it.
