Review: Great look and quality. - Good quality. Works great for JDs garage mini CNC build. Buying more for my 26 Model T build!
Review: Excellent Cable Management Solution with Alex Tech Expandable Braided Sleeving - I recently purchased the Alex Tech 100ft 1/2 inch PET Expandable Braided Sleeving in black, and I am extremely pleased with its performance. This product has proven to be an excellent solution for managing and protecting my cables both at home and in my vehicle. **Quality and Durability** The braided sleeving is made from high-quality PET material, which offers excellent abrasion resistance and durability. It can withstand temperatures ranging from -103°F to 257°F, with a melt point of 446°F, making it suitable for various environments, including automotive engines and high-performance audio systems. **Ease of Use** One of the standout features of this sleeving is its expandability. It can expand up to 50% of its nominal diameter, allowing it to easily cover cables, hoses, and wires, even those with bulky connectors. The flexibility of the material ensures that it can conform to various shapes without compromising its protective capabilities. **Versatility** I have used this sleeving in multiple applications, such as organizing the wiring harnesses in my car, protecting HDMI and audio cables in my home theater setup, and even tidying up the cables behind my computer desk. Its moisture-resistant properties prevent rot and fungus, ensuring the longevity of the cables it protects. **Installation Tips** For best results, it is recommended to cut the sleeving with a hot knife to prevent fraying. If a hot knife is not available, searing the edges with a lighter or another heat source works well to maintain the integrity of the sleeve. **Overall Experience** Overall, the Alex Tech expandable braided sleeving has exceeded my expectations. It is economical, easy to install, and highly effective at prolonging the life of my cables. I would highly recommend this product to anyone looking for a reliable cable management solution. This product has been a great investment in keeping my electronics organized and protected. I am thoroughly satisfied with its performance and durability.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Anybody else get short changed on the length?**
A: Has anyone complaining of shorter lengths measured the sleeve off the reel before installing it over a bundle of wire?  If the sleeve is compressed to fit a bundle of wire it will be shorter than the flat, unfilled sleeve.  Perhaps they should explain that 25ft of flat 1/2" sleeve will not cover a 25ft  length of 1/2" diameter wire.  The sleeve will get shorter by increasing margins depending upon the diameter of the bundle it is fitted over.  Not saying that the company is NOT shorting the length of sleeve, just offering an explanation as to why it may appear to be shorter lengths.

**Q: How do I know what size diameter I need?**
A: Please measure the diameter of cables. For example, If the whole diameter of cables is 3/8'', you should buy 3/8'' PET braided wire sleeve. If the whole diameter of cables is 1/2'', you should buy 1/2''. One more thing, Is it possible for you to separate the cables and connector plug? If not, Although our PET sleeve can expand up to 150% in diameter, you have to pay attention that if the PET sleeve can successfully go through the big connector plug

**Q: What temperature are these sleeves rated for?**
A: The work's temperature of braided sleeve is -103 to 257 ℉, and it can be used in automotive engine.

**Q: What size for 2/0 cable?**
A: 2/0 gauge’s copper wire diameter is 0.365''. 3/8''=0.375''. So 3/8'' PET braided wire sleeve is ok to fit 2/0 gauge. BUT there are rubber wrap the copper wire. I don't know how thickness the rubber is. Could you please measure the whole diameter of 2/0 gauge wire? For example, If the whole diameter of 2/0 gauge wire is 1/2'', you should buy 1/2'' PET braided wire sleeve. If the whole diameter of 2/0 gauge wire is 3/4'', you should buy 3/4''.One more thing, Is it possible for you to separate the wires and connector plug? If not, Although our PET sleeve can expand up by 50% in diameter, you have to pay attention that if the PET sleeve can successfully go through the big connector plug
