  • Industry first in offering a zipper closure that can be cut to desired length
  • MIL-SPEC jacketing that is flame retardant and doesn’t contain PVC material
  • Extremely lightweight and flexible cable management solution

Swift-Zip® (PFR) is a smooth, flexible, flame-retardant, fungus-resistant and water-resistant cable management solution featuring a rare industry find of a continuous zipper closure. Swift-Zip® (PFR) uses a rubber-like poly(ether)urethane jacketing material, making it the perfect product for cable bundles or wiring that may need the capability to move without compromising security. At only 0.010" in thickness, the PFR jacketing is lightweight and moves effortlessly. The PFR jacketing is used in the aerospace and military industries due to its non-PVC material makeup and meeting the MIL-I-3930/21 specifications. Additionally, PFR meets the MIL-C-27072 and MIL-C-13777 specifications for electrical cable insulation, the MIL-STD-810 for fungus resistance, and the UL94 V-O standard for flame retardancy. 

The strong, RF-welded zipper closure is laminated in a polyurethane film which has a resistance to water, making this solution ideal for environments that may experience exposure to fluid. Though it is not completely waterproof, any contact with liquid it does have will cause the liquid to simply bead off, keeping the look and feel of the product sleek and clean. The zipper’s teeth thread is located within, so the outside has an even and flush exterior. Depending on requirements or needs, Swift-Zip® (PFR) can be cut to any length, while still having the protection of a durable zipped closure with a removable zipper. Finished endings can be easily stapled or sewn shut.

Swift-Zip® (PFR) is ideal for wrapping around cable bundles, wiring or other applications that are in an indoor or outdoor environment where the need for a secure closure and the ability to move are present.

Q:  What lengths of Swift Zip products are available?

A:  Our zipper closed sleeves can be ordered in lengths as short as a few inches to lengths of 100 feet or more.  When quoting or ordering, make sure to clearly state the length of each sleeve in inches, which is typically referenced at the end of the part number (-X120.0 for example).

Q:  What diameter of jacketing do I need?  Is it recommended to oversize?

A:  We will often suggest oversizing the sleeve diameter by 1/8” to allow for ease of installation.  If the application requires significant bending or flexing we will suggest even more extra room.  For assistance with sizing you can also contact one of our design engineers.

Q:  Can I cut the Jacketing?

A:  Yes! Unlike standard zippered jackets, Swift Zip products are built without a pin/box end or top stops.  The jacketing can be cut to length in sections as required.  After cutting, stops can be added to the cut section, or it can be left with just the teeth, no stops or zipper pull.  For more details on cutting, erminating, or closing Swift Zip jackets, please contact one of our design engineers.

Q:  I need extra zipper pulls, what do I do?

A:  We offer extra zipper pulls here, or you can use commercial 3mm sized pulls with a reverse-use slider tab for back-side operation.

Q:  I want to keep the jacketing secured at the ends, what should I use?

A:  A standard locking zipper pull will keep zipper teeth from separating.  Without this pull, several other means can be used to keep the ends together.  Glue, tape, zip-ties, and even staples can be used to secure the ends of the sleeving to keep them from coming apart.

Q:  Will the zipper keep out water and is it water-tight?

A:  No.  Our standard zippers do a great job at keeping big debris and dirt out of the jacketing but are not water tight. Our Swift Zip coil zippers are rated at IP4X, which means they will keep out most dirt and dust but water splashing can enter the jacket. If you need more protection, you may consider a track closure or adhesive closure option.
