Securing Fire Resistant Sleeves On Critical Hoses & Wires In Jet Engines
Fighter jet engines operate in extremes: high altitude, cold air, and hot engines.
While rare, if a fire was to break out in the engine, fiberglass sleeving protects the critical hose and electrical systems to give the pilot a chance to extinguish the fire, land, or eject.
The BAND-IT JS clamp was selected to secure the sleeving in place because of its proven ability to handle extreme heat, extreme cold, and the vibration of the aircraft. The result is a consistent tension on the hose clamp and a sleeve that doesn’t loosen or slip during flight.
The BAND-IT Edge
- Minimal expansion/contraction from thermal changes
- High strength to weight ratio
- Consistent installation tools and smooth edge ensure the sleeve is tightly secured without damaging the sleeving
- Available in multiple alloys, including Alloy 625
Stainless Steel Clamp Product Features
- Stainless steel clamps have a higher melting temperature and longer life than plastic ties
- JS Clamps have a low buckle profile to prevent catching or damage to other components
