Introduction

AIR5464TM REV. A

Metal Clad Fibers for Electrical Shielding and Harness Overbraid

This document provides information on metal clad fibers (MCF) used for shielding electrical cables, harness overbraids, and electrical wire conductors. It covers the properties of metal-clad aramid fibers (MCAF), metal-clad polybenzobisoxazole (PBO) fibers (MCPF), and metal-clad liquid crystal polymer (LCP) fibers (MCLF). The report includes test results and known applications in aerospace, as well as new developments for high-strength tethers and other aerospace applications requiring weight savings, strength, and long flex life.
