Blackburn FB-1480836-1 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Is the Blackburn FB-1480836-1 flexible braid sold by the foot or as a fixed-length piece?
Blackburn's FB-1480836-1 flexible braid is sold by the foot, so quantity is length. Order the total footage the run needs rather than a piece count.
2) What is the Blackburn FB-1480836-1 flex braid made of, and will it hold up in a damp or outdoor enclosure?
The conductor is tin-plated copper braid. The tin plating is what gives it corrosion resistance over bare copper, which is why this construction gets used for grounding jumpers and bonding straps in damp, outdoor, and industrial enclosures.
3) Does Blackburn flexible braid meet a recognized standard for tinned copper?
It is built to ASTM-B33, the specification covering tin-coated soft or annealed copper wire for electrical purposes. That is the standard an inspector or spec writer will be looking for on a tinned copper braid jumper.
4) Is this braid flat or round, and does the shape matter for my application?
It is a flat braid, not a round rope lay. Flat braid sits tight against a bus bar, frame, or hinge face and bends easily across a moving joint, so it is the shape used for bonding straps and equipment ground jumpers where a round conductor would stand proud of the surface.
5) Can I use tin-plated copper braid as a flexible ground jumper on equipment that vibrates or moves?
That is what this construction is for. It is a flexible, flat tin-plated copper braid, so it tolerates repeated flexing across a hinged panel, a vibrating motor base, or a transformer connection where solid or stranded wire would work-harden and break.
6) Where is Blackburn FB-1480836-1 flex braid made? I have a domestic-content requirement.
Country of origin is the United States. For federal, military, or Buy American-qualified projects that is the field your submittal package needs, and it is stated on the product record.
7) What part number do I give my distributor for this Blackburn braid?
Order it as Blackburn FB-1480836-1. That is the manufacturer part number, and it is the single identifier to quote so you get the tin-plated copper flat braid and not a different gauge or construction in the family.
