Description
OEX ACX1104 Split Convoluted Tubing 9.7mm Internal Diameter 30m Roll Corrugated Polypropylene UL HB/V2
The OEX ACX1104 is a split convoluted tubing sleeve in 9.7mm internal diameter, supplied in a 30m length. Constructed from corrugated polypropylene with a UL flammability rating of HB or V2, the split design allows cables to be inserted from the side without threading. At 9.7mm ID and 12.8mm OD with a maximum bundle size of 9.9mm, it accommodates larger cable bundles than the 7mm range. Rated for continuous operation from -20°C to +90°C with a 120°C maximum peak temperature. Covered by a one year warranty.
Product overview
The ACX1104 steps up from the 7mm convoluted tubing range to a 9.7mm internal diameter, suited to medium-sized cable bundles and individual larger-gauge cables that would not fit or would be a tight squeeze in the 7mm options. The corrugated polypropylene construction provides flexibility for routing around bends while maintaining abrasion and chafing protection. The split design allows cables to be pressed in from the side along the lengthwise opening without threading from one end, making it practical for retrofitting protection to installed harnesses without disconnecting connectors.
The UL flammability rating of HB or V2 confirms a tested level of flame resistance suited to general automotive wiring protection. The operating range of -20°C to +90°C continuous with a 120°C maximum peak temperature covers the wide temperature swings typical of Australian automotive environments. The 30m roll suits workshop jobs and single-vehicle installations across automotive, 4WD, caravan, trailer and marine wiring applications.
Features and benefits
Split design for retrofit installation: Cables snap in from the side without threading, allowing the tubing to be added to existing wiring runs without disconnecting connectors or rerouting cables.
9.7mm internal diameter and 12.8mm outside diameter: Accommodates larger cable bundles than the 7mm range, with a maximum bundle size of 9.9mm suited to medium-sized wire bundles and individual larger-gauge cables.
Corrugated polypropylene construction: Flexible and resistant to abrasion and chafing, suited to routing through bends and tight spaces in automotive and marine wiring installations.
UL flammability rating HB or V2: Tested flame resistance confirming the material meets automotive wiring protection standards for general use applications.
-20°C to +90°C continuous operating range: Covers automotive, underbonnet and cold-climate applications across the wide temperature range typical of Australian conditions.
120°C maximum peak temperature: Provides a safety margin above the continuous rating for short-duration heat exposure.
30m roll: Workshop-friendly length for single-vehicle and multi-circuit jobs without the bulk of a larger trade roll.
One year warranty: Covered by a one year OEX warranty.

Frequently asked questions
What is split convoluted tubing? Split convoluted tubing is a flexible ribbed sleeving with a lengthwise split along one side. Cables can be pressed into the split opening rather than threaded through from the end, making it easy to add protection to existing wiring without disconnecting anything. The corrugated construction gives it flexibility and abrasion resistance.
What does the UL HB or V2 flammability rating mean? UL flammability ratings indicate how a material behaves when exposed to flame. HB is the base horizontal burn rating, indicating the material burns slowly or self-extinguishes. V2 indicates the material self-extinguishes within 30 seconds of a vertical flame test, though it may drip flaming particles. Both ratings confirm a level of flame resistance suitable for general automotive wiring protection.
How does the ACX1104 compare to the 7mm options in the OEX range? The ACX1104 has a 9.7mm internal diameter and 9.9mm maximum bundle size, suited to medium-sized cable bundles and larger-gauge individual cables that would not fit comfortably in the 7mm options. For smaller bundles, the ACX1101 (30m, corrugated polypropylene) or ACX1102/100 (100m, fire retardant polypropylene) are better suited. For larger bundles, OEX produces convoluted tubing in larger internal diameter sizes.
Is this tubing suitable for underbonnet use? Yes. The -20°C to +90°C continuous operating range and 120°C maximum peak temperature make it suitable for most automotive underbonnet environments. For areas with sustained extreme heat exposure, verify the ambient temperature against the tubing rating before use.
How do I cut split convoluted tubing to length? Split convoluted tubing can be cut with scissors, side cutters or a sharp blade. Cut between the ribs rather than through them for a cleaner end.
