Cable Sleeve SMALL XTC
- The following image (click here for full size image) shows XTC (Red) in comparison to our classic SMALL (Yellow) cable sleeve. In the range from 2.2 mm to 4.0 mm both are perfectly usable and only your personal preference based on technical behavior and visual result should make you find your choice. On 5.0 mm outer diameter, XTC is almost at the maximum and application onto an object is slower because of it.
- XTC always keeps its weave closed with almost no lengthwise stretch required to get a perfect result. Beginners will usually have an almost perfect result on first try.
- MDPC-X XTC cable sleeve is the extreme opposite of our classic SMALL cable sleeve while keeping the same perfection in technical quality. Maximized density throughout the whole diameter range is the philosophy of this version. Expandability is logically reduced by this. MDPC-X XTC cable sleeve covers a diameter range from ~2.2 mm to ~5.0 mm. On short distances you can get this cable sleeve over objects of ~5.5 mm in diameter. You could also use SMALL XTC without any cable inside or very thin ones, because the tight weave structure holds its shape and keeps its density closed.
- If you want to make your own custom cables for power supplies of your PC, the combination of XTC cable sleeve and our 15 AWG hookup wire with its 2.50 mm outer diameter (this is what matters!) is the maximum you can technically fit into connectors (shrinkless). A perfect combination for electrical and optical performance. This is the maximum in every aspect.
- All technical properties, features and advantages of our cable sleeving are described in the CABLE SLEEVING category.
This MDPC cable sleeve size is typically used for e. g. single wires (1.00 mm² to 1.50 mm², 15 AWG, 16 AWG, 17 AWG, 18 AWG) or bundles of 2 to 4 thinner wires (e.g. 0.14 mm² to 0.25 mm², 22 AWG, 23 AWG, 26 AWG, as you find them on computer-fans or electronic components).
XTC provides maximum coverage throughout the whole diameter range, so it can be perfectly used in many other areas as well. Whatever you prefer of our both extremes in cable sleeve design, classic MDPC-X SMALL or SMALL XTC, you will definitely have the ultimate solution for your cable sleeve style preference in every aspect.
