Hook and Loop Convolute - Federal-Mogul Systems Protection Group product information - Brief Article

Automotive Manufacturing & Production, August, 2001

Who: Federal-Mogul Systems Protection Group (Exton, PA)

What: FlexSeal 2520 wire harness convolute

Why you should care: FlexSeal 2520 features an integral hook and loop closure along its edges that eliminates the labor intensive process of taping the convolute after the wire harness has been inserted.

Pertinent Data: Because little or no tape is needed when using FlexSeal 2520, material costs as well as assembly man-hours are reduced. The closure system eliminates the common problem of sharp edges on slit convolutes that can snag, cut wires or injure assembly workers. It also reduces the "edge chatter" noise made by the edges of slit convolute, and can be quickly and easily opened at any juncture to accommodate wire breakouts.
