Overview

PVL-10 jacketing meets MIL-C-43006G, Type II, Class 1 requirements
Nylon cloth leader wraps around wires or cables for easy pull-through installation
Fire retardant, abrasion resistant, and chemical resistant cable management solution

Z flex^® (PVL) is an economical, heavy duty, pull-thru jacketing system for flat cables made from Zippertubing's type PVL-10. This configuration is ideal for inter-connection applications where mechanical protection is required and a sealed, flat, tubular jacket is desirable. Z flex^® is supplied in reel form and is easily cut to any length required.

A special "blue-line" nylon cloth leader inside the jacket is provided for fast, easy pull-through of the cable. Z flex^® (PVL) is available in many standard sizes to fit the most popular flat cable sizes ranging from 20 to 64 conductors. Custom sizes and colors are also available.

Refer to Zippertubing's PVL-10 data sheet below for specific material characteristics.

Installation Instructions

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Q: What lengths of Z Flex jacketing are available?

A: Typical spool lengths for most sizes are 100 feet, but will depend on total order footage. Custom lengths can be provided, just make sure to ask when ordering or include details on the PO for the lengths required.

Q: Can I cut the tubing?

A: Yes. Standard scissors are suitable for cutting through Z Flex sleeves.

Q: What diameter of jacketing do I need? Is it recommended to oversize?

A: We will often suggest oversizing the sleeve diameter by 1/8” to allow for ease of installation. If the application
requires significant bending or flexing we will suggest even more extra room. For assistance with sizing you can also contact one of our design engineers.

Q: What is the minimum bend radius of the tubing?

A: There is no minimum bend radius for our Z flex products. The flexible jacketing material allows for extreme amounts of bending and flexing. The bend radius of the installed sleeving is typically dictated by the harness it is covering.

Q: This jacketing looks flat, but I have a round cable, will this still work?

A: Z flex was designed to be used on flat ribbon cables, but can be used on any shape of cable harness. For round cables, ZTT or one of our many other jacketing options may provide a better fit.

Q: What is the nylon pull-through leader and do I need it?

A:The nylon fabric leader is an optional installation aid.For short sections of tubing it is not necessary, but can be very helpful for longer cable runs.First, one end is tied, taped, or otherwise attached to the cable to be covered.Then the opposite end of the leader is pulled out of the Z flex jacketing, bringing the cable with it, through the sleeving.
