Serving the transportation industries with our thermal shielding products, S&A Industries is a leading manufacturer of thermal protection sleeves that can be used to protect a variety of engine compartment and powertrain components from radiant heat sources.

S&A’s thermal sleeving with its high reflective and insulating features protects engine compartment and powertrain components from high temperature sources that can reach 400° Celsius. Our thermal protection sleeving, also known as reflective sleeving, is a spiral wound flexible conduit that can be produced in diameters from 8mm to 150mm, and wall thickness ranging between 1.2mm to 2.5mm. Our thermal protection sleeving can also be designed to guard against fluid penetration plus offer abrasion resistance.

Fabricated Thermal Sleeving Assemblies
In addition to offering a wide variety of sleeving diameters, material combinations and automated cut-to-length; S&A custom fabricates sleeving products to fit specific applications. S&A is capable of piercing, forming, bending, punching, sawing, crimping and eyelet or grommet insertion.

Materials
Depending on the performance needs, S&A offers the spirally wound sleeves in a variety materials. Materials include aluminum, copper, stainless steel and steel alloy foils, fiberglass & non-woven cloths, thermoplastic films, silicone sheeting and custom insulating materials including specialty papers.

From low- to high-volume manufacturing, S&A Industries is well-equipped to meet your thermal protection sleeving requirements. Contact our company today to learn more about our superior thermal protection sleeves.
