Electriduct 1/4" Black PET Expandable Braided Sleeving Cable Mesh Flexible Wire Sleeve - 10 Feet

This is great stuff! I can snake my CNC router cables through it after I cut it to length and melt the ends (to prevent fraying), and they stay tidy and protected while my gantry gets all jiggy wid' it.It's labeled 1/4", and that is the contracted size. It stretches to accommodate larger cable bundles than that, and to bend around corners.

It's actually quite difficult to get what you want in there! For a quarter inch you think you would be able to fit more than two 3.5 mm cables through it but no. It's a great concept but executed quite poorly.

This is a great item, one thing to note is the 1/4" is the finished size ( stretched ) , the unstretched size is about 3/16 or so. for those not having a ruler around its slightly larger then the lead of a #2 pencil and can stretch easily over the outside of it. I finished the ends of mine with some shrink tubing ( not included ) but the weave seems stout enough to not fray for light applications.

The image for this product hilariously shows 10 cords (one of them a massive VGA cable) crammed through this mesh sleeve, leading you to believe that getting all your cords through is as easy as one-two-three. When I received this product, I found it impossible to get a SINGLE USB cord through it, let alone a bundle of USB cords and a VGA cable. I had bought two sleeves and ended up returning them both at my own expense, only after I considered burning them, of course.I was foolish enough to purchase this without doing much research. I saw all the 5-star reviews and thought, "What could go wrong?" It never even occurred to me that all those 5-star reviews might be fake, which I later found out: they are. Don't be misled by all the fake 5 star reviews like I was.

This was as expected, it's a mesh I used to cover my home theater speaker cables. It was quite a hassle to put on, but looks slick now that they are done. When applying this, you have to push it onto whatever you are sleeving. It's like a finger trap, if you pull it just tightens, so push push push until it's all the way on. What I did (since speaker cable is not really rigid) was take about a 1 foot piece of a single #12 electrical wire and tape it to the speaker wire. This gives you a chance to get the stuff started and a good thing to hold on to when pushing it down the speaker wire. Then you just bunch as much as you can and slide the excess down, it will push itself and propagate down the line.I know I said push a lot, but that's how you do it. See pictures for some more info. I dropped this one by a star because you can get 100 ft for not much more..

Getting that end of it to not suck / look super ugly is tough. Using the heat cutter means that it doesn't like to expand at the ends. I've ended up just cutting it with wire snippers, running the wires through, then melting the end with a soldering iron.

Great product. I cut it using scissors and then singed the end with a lighter, which was ok but I also used electric tape around the end to smooth it, because it did leave pretty rough edges where I cut it. My only complaint is that it's not extremely comfortable against the skin, if you're using it for something like headphones. But it does what it's supposed to do, and does it well. I used the 1/4 inch for a 1/4 inch headphone cord + 1/8th inch mic cord (using ModMic with headphones) and the 1/4 inch was perfect fit. Thought it was too small at first, but no it's fine.

We bought this product to help protect our charging cables and wires from the jaws of our curious cat, and it has definitely done its job! The mesh braiding allows for easy installation around the wires, and does not create much of an eyesore either. Our cat has not even bothered to claw or bite through the braiding, and now both cat and wires can live happily together!
