Why Choose the Partex SUP12GREY Supaflex Braided Sleeving?
The Partex SUP12GREY is a flexible, expandable grey polyester braided cable sleeving designed to protect, organise and manage electrical cables, wiring harnesses and hoses in industrial and commercial installations. Part of the Partex Supaflex braided sleeving range, it offers a practical solution for improving cable protection and maintaining tidy wiring arrangements in electrical control panels, machinery, automation equipment and cable assemblies.
Featuring a durable woven polyester construction, the SUP12GREY expands to accommodate different cable bundle sizes while remaining flexible enough to follow bends and changes in cable routing. Its braided structure provides a protective barrier against abrasion and everyday mechanical wear without the rigidity of solid conduit. The open weave also allows individual cables to branch out along a wiring harness, making the sleeving particularly useful for complex electrical assemblies.
Designed for a 10–18 mm cable bundle diameter range, the Partex SUP12GREY offers versatile cable management for medium-sized wiring bundles and equipment installations. Its grey finish provides a neat, professional appearance that complements industrial control cabinets, electrical enclosures and machinery wiring. Whether used for new installations, equipment manufacturing or maintenance work, this expandable braided sleeving helps protect cables while simplifying cable organisation.

Flexible Cable Protection for Industrial Wiring and Automation
The Partex SUP12GREY Supaflex braided sleeving provides a practical alternative to rigid cable conduit where flexibility, ease of installation and convenient access to individual wires are important. Its expandable polyester braid adapts to the shape of the cable bundle, helping protect wiring from abrasion while maintaining the flexibility needed for equipment assemblies and cable routing. This makes it particularly useful for industrial machinery, electrical control panels and automation systems with multiple cable connections.
The 10–18 mm diameter range makes the SUP12GREY suitable for organising medium-sized wiring bundles, while its neutral grey colour helps create a consistent, professional appearance. For a neat installation, the sleeving can be cut to length and secured at the ends using suitable cable ties, heat-shrink tubing or other compatible cable management accessories. Where a clean cut edge is required, a heated cutting tool can help prevent the polyester braid from fraying.
