braided harnesses
For demanding electrical applications
Coatyarn is the leading producer of 100% Italian made coated yarns for technical applications, including specialty yarns for the manufacturing of braided cable harnesses.
Such braid yarns are typically designed for the braiding of harnesses as the protection of electrical cable assemblies. This extendes durability of the assembly, thus enhancing its lifespan and allowing it to better withstand bending and tangling, much better than non-braided counterparts, such as corrugated tubes or sleeves.
The benefits of the braiding process are many:
-
Improved abrasion resistance: braiding offers additional strength and protection, making cables highly resistant to physical damage, such as cuts or abrasions.
-
Flexibility: the crossed and woven pattern of the braided wires allows them to shift and adjust without compromising protection when the cable is bent.
-
Durability: because the braiding encases the wires and protects them from external agents, their lifespan is dramatically improved.
-
Design: the braided design can enhance the cables's aesthetics, which is beneficial in applications where the wire is visible and appearance matters.
-
No water retention: nor risk of liquids sagnating with the cables, as the braided pattern allows them to escape.
-
Up to 100% coverage: it is possible to completly eclose the harness in the same process, this includes branching points and terminals.
-
Reduced dimensions: since the braid thighly envelops the cables, there are no unnecessary voids whichs waste precipus space.​​​
