Re: Stainless/Chrome braided sleeving?

I would be very shy of a metal based braid unless you intend to wire up with the appropriate MIL or aircraft spec cabling as well. Standard PVC insulated cable would probably not stand the abrasive behaviour of these materials well in the long term, and a metal braid will have direct short potential in the event that insulation does wear through.
