Panduit FT100-C 100 ft Fiberglass Insulated Tubing

Panduit FT100-C Fiberglass Insulated Tubing

The Panduit FT100-C delivers 100 feet of continuous fiberglass insulated tubing engineered for high-temperature wire and cable protection in demanding commercial and industrial environments. This silver-colored sleeving provides abrasion resistance, thermal insulation, and mechanical protection for power conductors, control wiring, and low-voltage cabling in equipment rooms, industrial panels, HVAC installations, and backup power systems. Fiberglass construction offers superior heat tolerance compared to polymer sleeves, making the FT100-C the go-to solution when routing cables near heat-generating equipment, in plenum spaces requiring flame-retardant materials, or anywhere cable integrity under thermal stress is non-negotiable.

Key Features

• 100-foot continuous length minimizes splicing and reduces install time on long cable runs
• Fiberglass construction provides excellent thermal insulation and heat resistance for high-temperature environments
• Abrasion-resistant sleeving protects conductors from mechanical wear in cable trays, conduit, and rough openings
• Silver finish maintains professional appearance in visible equipment rooms and commercial installations
• Flexible tubing conforms to cable bundles and navigates bends without kinking or splitting
• Suitable for power distribution, control wiring, and low-voltage cable protection across multiple trade disciplines

Fiberglass tubing excels in applications where temperature extremes, friction, or exposure to oils and solvents would degrade standard PVC or polyethylene sleeving. The FT100-C's woven fiberglass structure maintains mechanical integrity at elevated temperatures common in industrial control panels, motor connections, and uninterruptible power supply (UPS) battery banks. Unlike braided nylon or expandable sleeving that can fray under abrasion, fiberglass maintains a consistent outer surface that slides cleanly through grommets, conduit bodies, and cable glands. The 100-foot length supports installation efficiency on backbone runs in datacenters, manufacturing facilities, and commercial buildings where frequent coil changes slow progress and introduce splice points that complicate troubleshooting. For integrators running cable near transformers, ballasts, or equipment exhaust vents, fiberglass insulation provides the thermal barrier necessary to meet temperature de-rating requirements in NEC Article 310 without oversizing conductors.

The FT100-C integrates into structured cabling projects, electrical rough-ins, and retrofit upgrades where existing wire needs additional protection without full replacement. In security and AV installations, use this tubing to shield Cat6, speaker cable, or composite runs in mechanical rooms, above ceilings with recessed lighting, or along pathways shared with line-voltage circuits. The silver colorway blends into steel cable tray, aluminum conduit, and galvanized j-hooks common in commercial construction while remaining distinct enough for visual inspection during testing and commissioning. Fiberglass sleeving does not absorb moisture like cloth-based products, preventing corrosion on enclosed conductors in damp locations or outdoor enclosures with condensation risk. Pair the FT100-C with Panduit's cable ties, mounting hardware, and identification systems for a complete wire management ecosystem backed by UL recognition and consistent quality across product lines.

This 100-foot roll ships two units per carton, supporting bulk purchases for multi-floor buildings or campus projects where standardized materials reduce procurement complexity and ensure matching appearance across phases. Fiberglass tubing meets the performance demands of mission-critical installations—datacenter hot aisles, industrial automation panels, emergency power distribution—where cable failure is not an option and thermal protection directly impacts system uptime and code compliance.
