Product Information
Full details
The Alex Tech Cord Protector Wire Loom Tubing is an essential cable management solution for homeowners, office workers, and automotive enthusiasts looking to organize messy wires and protect them from external damage. Its braided, self-closing design allows for effortless installation and provides a durable barrier against wear and pet chewing. While the 3/8-inch diameter is perfect for standard cords, users should measure their cable bundles carefully to ensure they fit within the tubing's capacity, as this size may be too narrow for large power strips or thick bundles of thick cables.

FAQs
Can I use this for power cords?
Yes, it is designed for common power cords, USB cables, and audio/video wires.
Is this effective against pets?
Many customers use this specifically to deter pets from chewing on cords, as the braided material is much tougher than standard plastic cable insulation.
How do I cut the tubing?
You can cut it with standard scissors, but you must seal the end with heat (a lighter or hot knife) to prevent fraying.
Is this waterproof?
No, the loom is made of braided fabric and is not designed to be waterproof.
What is the diameter capacity?
This specific model is 3/8 inch in diameter, suitable for small to medium bundles of thin cables.
Troubleshooting
The sleeve is not closing tightly around the cables.
You may have too many cables inside. Remove one or two cables to allow the braid to overlap properly.
The ends of the sleeve are fraying after cutting.
Use a hot blade or a lighter to melt the ends of the braid, which will fuse the fibers and prevent further unraveling.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Flexible and easy to install without tools
- Effective at deterring pets from chewing on cords
- Durable material withstands extreme temperatures
- Keeps workspaces tidy and eliminates cable clutter

Cons
- Limited capacity due to 3/8-inch diameter

- May require cutting to specific lengths, which can cause fraying if not heat-sealed
Setup, Compatibility & Care
To install, simply hold the split opening of the tubing and guide your cables into the center. The braided material will naturally fold over itself to seal the contents inside. When cutting the tubing to the desired length, it is highly recommended to use a hot knife or a lighter to briefly sear the cut edge; this prevents the nylon fibers from unraveling. Ensure your cable bundle is no larger than 3/8 inch in diameter, as overstuffing the sleeve can prevent it from closing securely. The tubing is maintenance-free, but if it collects dust over time, you can wipe it down with a dry or slightly damp cloth to keep it looking new.
