Why Choose the Partex SUP25BLACK Supaflex Black Braided Sleeving?
The Partex SUP25BLACK Supaflex braided sleeving is a flexible, expandable black cable protection sleeve designed to organise, bundle and protect electrical cables, wiring looms and flexible hoses. Suitable for cable bundles with diameters from 20 mm to 35 mm, this versatile braided sleeving provides a practical solution for cable management in electrical installations, industrial machinery, control systems and equipment assemblies.
Part of the Partex Supaflex braided sleeving range, the SUP25BLACK features an expandable woven construction that allows the sleeve to accommodate variations in cable bundle diameter. Its open braided structure offers flexibility around bends and complex cable routes, making it particularly useful for protecting cable harnesses that must pass through machinery, electrical enclosures or confined installation spaces.
The black Supaflex expandable cable sleeving helps keep multiple cables together while providing an additional layer of protection against everyday rubbing and mechanical contact. Unlike rigid conduit or solid cable trunking, its flexible braided construction follows the shape of the cable bundle without adding unnecessary bulk. With an expansion range of 20 mm to 35 mm, the SUP25BLACK is an effective choice for electrical contractors, panel builders, automation engineers and industrial maintenance professionals seeking neat, accessible cable protection.

Flexible Expandable Cable Protection for Wiring Harnesses and Industrial Equipment
The Partex SUP25BLACK Supaflex braided sleeving provides a versatile cable management solution for applications where several cables need to be routed together while retaining flexibility. Its expandable braided construction allows the sleeve to increase or decrease in diameter to suit the cable bundle, helping create a tidy wiring assembly without the rigidity of conventional cable conduit.
The specified 20 mm to 35 mm expansion range makes the SUP25BLACK suitable for cable harnesses that vary in thickness along their route. The sleeve can expand around larger sections of a bundle and contract around smaller sections, helping maintain a practical fit over cables and wiring assemblies. The exact installed diameter will depend on the number, size and arrangement of the cables being enclosed.
The open woven braided design is particularly useful where cables must bend around machinery, follow equipment contours or pass through confined spaces. The flexible structure helps maintain cable organisation without restricting normal routing movements in the same way as rigid trunking. It is therefore well suited to electrical control systems, industrial automation equipment and manufactured cable harnesses.
In addition to improving cable organisation, the Supaflex sleeve provides an extra protective layer between cables and surrounding surfaces. This can help reduce rubbing and general wear caused by incidental contact during normal equipment operation. However, braided sleeving should not be treated as a substitute for suitable cable insulation, impact-resistant conduit or specialised protection in applications involving severe abrasion, sharp edges or other significant mechanical hazards.
For best results, installers should select the sleeve size according to the complete cable bundle diameter, including connectors or changes in cable thickness where relevant. The sleeving should be cut using equipment appropriate to its material and braid construction to help minimise end fraying. Suitable cable ties, clips or termination methods can then be used to secure the ends where required.

- Power and signal cable management.
- Wiring loom protection in mechanical equipment.
- Industrial maintenance and cable refurbishment.
- Grouping multiple cables into organised harnesses.
- Cable routing through confined equipment spaces.
- Protection against incidental rubbing and light abrasion.
- Applications requiring flexible cable sleeving rather than rigid conduit.
