FUNCTIONS:
CrushShield® 2442 is a self-wrapping sleeve designed to provide superior cut-through protection for electrical cables. The tough, multilayer construction enables the product to absorb and disperse energy, thus preventing damage to the electrical cable inside. CrushShield 2442’s ability to prevent cut through of electrical cables has made it a product of choice for vehicle manufacturers concerned with isolating HEV cables from the vehicles’ electricity-conducting chassis in crash situations. CrushShield 2442 helps protect the HEV cable enabling the vehicle to meet stringent industry standards yet its lightweight, flexible structure does not impede cable routing or add unnecessary weight.
CrushShield 2442 is available in orange, for identification of the high voltage cables in hybrid-electric or electric vehicles, as well as black.

Max diameter is defined as a nominal 90° sleeve overwrap. A variety of application-based variables will dictate the appropriate sleeve size for use on each harness. Proper sleeve sizing is at the discretion of the end user.
A reduced overlap could be acceptable in certain applications allowing for a larger max diameter harness. Please consult your local sales representative for recommendations and guidance.
Standard sizes are listed here, Additional sizes could be available upon request.
Available in spools and custom cut lengths. Recommended cut lengths are in 5mm increments. Please see regional drawings for cut length tolerances.
