Braided Black Nylon Sleeving

[TSCTSC]

Does anyone know where I can buy those? You can see some of these sleeving covering the wires on the trailers and the connections to the outboards on the new boats. I need like half inch diameters and probably 2-3 inch diameters to cover and protect the wires and cables of my trailers and the outboard. Thanks

Almost all of the automotive stores carry a plastic ribbed conduit. Maybe that would work.

if you have a trailer manufacturer in the area, you may want to try them. otherwise some one that does trailer work.

If you're talking about the nylon braided sleeve the only place I've ever seen it is at a marine dealer... they buy it in 25-50' spools, but I'm sure they'd sell or give you (depending on the dealer) as much as you need...

I have a lot of it, it's approx 1.5" wide but expands to approx 3"/4". Just stop over, or try any dealer, it's used to rig new boats.

Thanks guys. Am I calling it the right thing. Obviously, u guys figured out what I was talking about, but I have been asking around and everytime they look at me like I am nuts cos they do not know what I am talking about. Is there a common name for this sleeve?

I know the guys at Nelson Marine call it "snake skin"....hahaha.
