Where is Spiral Guard used?

Spiral Guard Wrap’s outstanding resistance to mechanical hazards and environmental factors makes it a perfect product for heavy equipment hose protection applications. Hydraulic hoses, wire bundles, and other critical lines are all susceptible to damage and wear in the field- protect these components with Spiral Guard Wrap to safeguard against downtime, maintenance, and replacement parts.

Automotive applications also benefit from the durability and ease of use offered by Spiral Guard Wrap. Consider Spiral Guard Wrap as a long-wearing and versatile wire loom for wire harness and wire bundling applications. Spiral Guard Wrap is easily installed over groups of wiring, even if wide connects have already been installed. Wiring harnesses typically have wires branching out at various points along the harness’s length- Spiral Guard Wrap’s open spiral construction allows these ends to branch out without worry of sharp edges damaging the sensitive wires. Safe to use in a wide range of temperatures (-60 to 200F), Spiral Guard Wrap can be confidently used outdoors in any normal weather condition.

Many opportunities for Spiral Guard Wrap exist in industrial and workplace settings. Employee safety and process efficiency are critically important to the success of any organization, and Spiral Guard Wrap is a straightforward way to increase both in your facility. Spiral Guard Wrap is available in a rainbow of high-visibility colors to help differentiate between assemblies and draw attention to potential hazards. Extension cords, cables, air hoses, water lines, and other lines are all found running across the floor of many facilities- each of which presents a tripping hazard for operators. Wrap these lines with a high-visibility Yellow Spiral Guard Wrap to make these hazards visible and to help prevent opportunities for unnecessary harm. Send and Return lines, which may look similar on the exterior, can be quickly and reliably color-coded using multiple Spiral Guard Wrap colors.

Processing equipment in many manufacturing facilities use Spiral Guard Wrap to keep festoons and bundles out of harm’s way. Re-routing lines away from potential hazards is a simple and effective way to prevent the components from harm and damage. Overhead lines can be boldly colored with Spiral Guard Wrap to draw operator attention during forklift operation, material handling, and maintenance work. For years on-end, Spiral Guard Wrap has been extending the service life of critical lines which are routinely drug across the floor, over gravel, around edges, and other jagged surfaces. Automated manufacturing equipment also uses Spiral Guard Wrap to prevent dynamic hoses, wires, and cables from friction and entanglement.

While perfectly at-home during use in harsh applications like cold and rugged forestry equipment and advanced robotic manufacturing units, Spiral Guard Wrap is also a valuable asset around the house. In your entertainment center, quickly turn messy tangles of coaxial cable, HDMI cable, power supply wiring, and audio wiring into organized, well-managed cables. Garden hoses routinely face abrasion and puncture hazards, and always seem to be crushed or kinked at some point. Spiral Guard Wrap is easily installed onto any garden hose, eliminating wear on the hose surface, preventing crushing, and restricting the bend radius to reduce kinking. Household pets can cause havoc in the household by chewing on and destroying power cables for the myriad of electronics throughout the home- shield both your cables and companions from harm by sleeving at-risk lines in Spiral Guard Wrap.
