A braided silica sleeve typically refers to a protective covering or sheath made from silica fibers that are braided together. Silica is a material known for its high-temperature resistance and durability. The braiding process enhances the strength and flexibility of the sleeve.

These sleeves are often used in industrial applications where there is a need for thermal insulation, protection against high temperatures, and resistance to abrasion. The braided silica sleeve can be employed in various industries, including automotive, aerospace, metallurgy, and manufacturing.

One common application is in the protection of wires, cables, and hoses that may be exposed to harsh conditions, such as extreme temperatures, abrasion, or chemicals. The braided silica sleeve acts as a barrier, shielding the internal components from external factors that could compromise their performance or integrity.
