Corrugated Loom
Though lightweight, corrugated loom protects wires, cables, tubing, and hoses from abrasion and pinching with its convoluted surface. By convoluted, we mean that the circular loom looks ribbed or like a series of coils with indentations and protrusions. Available in both split and non-split styles, many appreciate how easily the split loom slides over the assembly and closes for a permanent installation. This excellent form of protection is available in several sizes and materials. The four types are:
Polyethylene: Black. Split is Type LCP and available in 11 sizes ranging from .125 to 2.000 Nominal I.D. (inch). Non-split is Type NCP and available in three sizes: .350, .500, and .750 Nominal I.D. (inch). The polyethylene corrugated loom can withstand temperatures as high as 200°F (93°C).
Nylon:
Black with gray stripe. Available in Split Type LCN only and the same 11 sizes as the polyethylene. This nylon corrugated split loon can withstand as high as 257°F (125°C).
Flame Retardant Polyethylene: Gray. Available solely in Split Type LGR and three sizes: .350, .500, and .750 Nominal I.D. (inch). The flame retardant polyethylene corrugated split loom can withstand temperatures as high as 200°F (93°C).
Flame Retardant Polypropylene: Black with blue stripe. Available in Split Type LFB and the same three sizes: .350, .500, and .750. This flame retardant polypropylene corrugated split loom can withstand temperatures as high as 275°F (135°C).
Once you have selected your corrugated loom, there are some tools and fittings you will need for a successful installation. Corrugated loom fittings will increase the efficiency of the harness assembly and improve the appearance of your work product. Made out of black polypropylene material, these typical tee shaped fittings easily install by snapping together and connect breakouts to the loom.
A loom/tubing cutter and a loom insertion tool are indispensible for any corrugated loom applications. Our high carbon Teflon coated blade cuts up to 1¼” tubing and prevents injury by design. The loom insertion tool facilitates placing wire bundles in split loom wire coverings. It is available in five sizes: .350, .500, .750, 1.00, and 1.25. Together these tools make the already straightforward corrugated loom installation process quick, easy, and safe.
Lastly, there are three component parts that will help make your corrugated loom installation neat and secure. An outlet will hold loom tight at breakouts. While a clip will secure the end of a loom piece, the rosebud clip secures the loom end, provides a quick mount, and snaps into a ¼” diameter hole up to .150” thick material. There are situations in which any and all might be appropriate for your corrugated loom installation.
