Product Overview
Removable Fire Protection for Installed Components
LXHTR Snap Closure Fire Sleeves are designed for hydraulic hoses, industrial pipes, cables and wiring systems that cannot be disconnected during installation. Constructed from a high-bulk fiberglass sleeve coated with thick silicone rubber and secured by metal snap fasteners, these sleeves provide reliable thermal protection while allowing quick installation, inspection and maintenance.
Unlike standard fire sleeves that require components to be threaded through the sleeve before assembly, the snap closure design wraps directly around existing equipment, minimizing downtime and simplifying retrofit projects.
Core Design Features
-
Metal Snap Closure System — Durable metal snap fasteners provide secure mechanical locking even in environments exposed to molten splash, welding sparks and vibration.
-
Thick Silicone-Coated Fiberglass Construction — Combines excellent thermal insulation with flame resistance, helping protect hoses, cables and pipes from radiant heat and direct flame exposure.
-
Easy Retrofit Installation — Wrap-around design allows installation on existing equipment without disconnecting hydraulic lines, cables or pipe assemblies.
-
Re-Openable for Maintenance — The sleeve can be repeatedly opened and closed for inspection, servicing or replacement, reducing maintenance time.
Key Advantages
-
Protects Hydraulic Hoses from Extreme Heat — Helps reduce hose failure caused by radiant heat and direct flame exposure.
-
Resistant to Molten Metal Splash — Widely used in steel mills and foundries where molten splash protection is critical.
-
Extends Equipment Service Life — Reduces maintenance costs and improves operational safety.
-
Suitable for Multiple Industrial Applications — Can be used for hoses, cables, fuel lines and pipe protection.
-
Easy to Cut and Install — Flexible sleeve design simplifies on-site installation and maintenance.

Frequently Asked Questions
1. What is a silicone fire sleeve used for?
Silicone fire sleeves are used to protect hydraulic hoses, cables, fuel lines and pipes from high temperatures, flame exposure and molten metal splash.
2. What temperature can a silicone fire sleeve withstand?
The operating temperature depends on the material specification. Please refer to the technical specifications section.
3. Can silicone fire sleeves protect against molten metal splash?
Yes. The silicone-coated outer layer helps resist molten metal splash and reduces damage caused by high-temperature particles.
4. Are silicone fire sleeves suitable for hydraulic hoses?
Yes. They are widely used as hydraulic hose fire sleeves in steel mills, foundries, mining equipment and industrial machinery.
5. Can fire sleeves be used for electrical cables?
Yes. They are commonly used to protect cables, wire harnesses and sensor wiring in high-temperature environments.
6. What is the difference between a silicone fire sleeve and a standard fiberglass sleeve?
A silicone fire sleeve includes a silicone rubber coating that provides improved resistance to flame, molten splash, oil and abrasion.
