CCP1.00BK25 Flexo Clean Cut 1-Inch Braided Cable Sleeve, Black - 25 Feet

For years I've been taking my guitar synth rig (GR-33) to gigs which required laying four cables from the foot controller to the amp or PA. I tried wire ties - too sharp and cut my hands. I settled for taping them together with electrical tape every foot or so. I called the bundle the beast. FINALLY, I found this product. I was able to slip all four cables into it - three 1/4" hi-impedance (guitar) cables and one power connector - without taking the ends off. The product expands to 400% its size. It took a few minutes to figure out how to do this easily as the webbing acts like a Chinese finger puzzle. Once the cables were covered, I slipped 3/4" shrink tube over the ends to hold down fraying and shrank them down tight. Even when used carefully, this product DOES fray on the ends once cut. Shrink tube handles this problem perfectly and professionally. I no longer call my little bundle of cables the beast. Highly recommended.

This sleeving was perfect for my audio application. I fit two power cords and three XLR cables in it without a problem, you just have to be patient feeding the cables through (read: slow). It is durable and frankly just what you would expect from braided sleeving. With the five cables I mentioned inside of it my overall length was 24 feet. Notes: Fit 2 Extension Cords and 3 XLR cables inside w/ 24' overall length Slow/difficult to feed cables through (the connectors on the end are hard to advance through cable). Be careful if you use heatshrink tubing to bind ends; heat gun can melt sleeving.

Superb!

The biggest things I put through this 1-inch size was a regular US 120V 3-prong power cord, plus a VGA cable. I staggered those two ends a couple inches apart and didn't have any problem inching them through a few foot run between PC and wall. It looks way nicer than zip-tied cables! Plan ahead and don't forget the USB webcam or Audio wire or whatever. I didn't need VGA but I put one through just so I'd never have to take it apart later, and if I want to remove it I'll just cut off an end rather than un-stretch it. You have to push, not pull, like a "Chinese Finger Puzzle" toy. The more diameter of cables you end up having inside this, the less it will stretch out so you have to guesstimate a little before you decide how long to cut it so you can stuff your cables, or else you could just feed your wire most of the way before cutting and then cut it once most of the cable is pushed through. The stock end where it was melted had to be stretched open, and once the cables are in it I don't see how you could really melt the ends again safely, so if I wanted really clean ends I would add some heat shrink rather than trying to melt this directly.

I ordered this sleeving to put on my Festool vacuum hose - which has a lot of ridges - so that the hose wouldn't catch on my work as easily. I also ordered some large shrink tubing to hold the sleeving in place - I put the shrink tubing on each end. This sleeving worked fine. You can expand it so it will fit a much larger hose than what you would think when you first look at the sleeving.
