ACRYFLEX-F fiberglass sleeving is a Class 155°C electrical insulation,
manufactured by impregnating and coating a finely braided fiberglass
sleeving with a dielectric film of acrylic resin. ACRYFLEX-F sleeving is
recommended as a universal coated sleeving for all thermal requirements
from Class 105°C through Class 155°C.
AVAILABLE GRADES:
ACRYFLEX-F sleeving is available in the following grades. The dielectric
breakdown voltages given are measured according to ASTM D149,
using a rate of voltage increase of 500 volts/second.
Grade A 7,000 Volts Min. Avg. 5,000 Volts Min. Indiv.
Grade B 4,000 Volts Min. Avg. 2,500 Volts Min. Indiv.
Grade C-1 2,500 volts Min. Avg. 1,500 Volts Min. Indiv.
Grade C-2 1,500 Volts Min. Avg. 800 Volts Min. Indiv.
Grade C-3 Space factor insulation only approx. 30 VPM.
1⁄32" wall constructions available on special order.
STANDARD COLOR: - #24 to 1⁄2" — Natural (varies from white to tan), black, red and yellow.
5⁄8" and Larger — Natural.

FEATURES AND BENEFITS of Acryflex-F® Sleeving |
APPLICATIONS
ACRYFLEX-F sleeving is widely used in fractional and integral horsepower
motors on leads and crossovers. Other uses exist in dry and oilfilled
transformers, relays of many types, radio and television circuits,
welding apparatus and many others.
ADVANTAGES
ACRYFLEX-F sleeving is an overall superior sleeving in the 105°C to
155°C thermal rating range. Its compatibility with other components of
insulation systems is equal or superior to any other type of sleeving in
this temperature range. Use of this one sleeving for Class 105°C, Class
130°C and Class 155°C applications can permit reduction of sleeving
inventory with attendant savings.
FEATURES
ACRYFLEX-F sleeving has superior mechanical and electrical properties,
providing its rated dielectric strength during and after the most severe
handling in your application. It is fully compatible with most magnet
wire coatings such as polyester, acrylic, polyamide, polyimide, epoxy
and phenolic, and is proven in applications and laboratory tests in both
sealed and unsealed systems.
