Wiring sleeve, where can I get it? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Accelo · 06-07-2021, 02:03 AM

I have been using black tape and other methods to secure the new wiring on my C10. I ran into this product on one of the after-maket wire feeds for my fans. Anyone know the correct name for it and where I could get more? I really like the way it looks and would use more if I knew where to get it from. It isn't shrink tubing. Just a black sleeve.
Thanks
Rick

Here it is . reading some of their product descriptions they are not flame retardant

Overview
General-purpose PVC tubing
The Alpha Wire General-purpose PVC tubing is a multi purpose protective non-corrosive sheath in highly flexible extruded plastic that contains vital thermal, electrical and mechanical properties. The products high durability leaves it resistant to heat, oil, abrasion and mold, allowing it to withstand heats between -20°C to +105°C.

.

This looks like an excellent alternative to the cheap plastic spiral wrap I've been using. There are some high(er) end options as well but not for me.

I like expanded loom better than split loom. You can get it on Ebay, Amazon..... It has good abrasion resistance and comes in different sizes.

That is a good price! I'll have to remember them before my next loom order.

My local NAPA carries a very similar product to this that I have used on several vehicles.
