Alpha Wire Expandable Braided Tin Plated Copper Silver Circular Connector Contact, 30m Length 1.27 mm Cable Diameter,

This braided copper wire provides conductive, flexible shielding and cable protection for electrical, electronic and mechanical systems. Manufactured from tinned copper braid with an expandable construction and silver finish, it is intended for use where flexible EMI screening and organised cable routing are required. The product is supplied in a continuous sleeve length suited to industrial wiring and harness assemblies.

• High-conductivity tinned braided wire delivers improved current-carrying capacity
• Nominal braid coverage of 88% enhances electromagnetic screening effectiveness
• Equivalent conductor capacity approx. AWG18 supports higher circuit loads
• 72 total braid ends provide robust mechanical durability under flexing
• Expandable woven construction accommodates varied cable bundles
• Available in continuous 30m sleeve supports long runs and reduced joints

• Suitable for shielding control and sensor cable looms in automation systems
• Ideal for harnesses requiring flexible protective braid in electronic panels
• Used with power and signal cables where EMI suppression is necessary
• Can be used for organising and protecting wiring in mechanical assemblies

The braid is MADE from tinned copper carriers to combine conductivity with corrosion resistance for prolonged field performance.

The expandable woven structure allows the sleeve to increase in diameter for easy overfitting of connectors and irregular bundle sizes.

With an approximate ampacity of 16 amps and an equivalent AWG18 rating the braid supports moderate power distribution while providing screening.

It is supplied as a continuous sleeve in practical spool lengths to minimise joins when routing long cable runs.
