Profile: Mettex Electric Co Ltd specializes in offering braids, strands and flexible connectors. Our wire sleeving braid provides sensitive cables with an EMC screen to shield them against electromagnetic, electrostatic and radio frequency interference. Optimum screening performance is obtained using copper wire braid that can also be used for earth continuity purposes. Nickel-plated copper is suitable for use at elevated temperatures and for harsh environments or where abrasion is likely to be encountered, stainless steel or galvanised wire is an option. It is used in screening of cables from electromagnetic, electrostatic and RF interference. Multiple layers of flat braid are used and assembled in a parallel or stacked format to achieve the required cross sectional area or agreed current density. Busbars can be supplied insulated either over the whole assembly or individual layers of braid.
