Overview

ABB FBF24 tinned copper flexible braid provides low-resistance electrical bonding and grounding in industrial applications. This braid measures 1.5 inches wide by 24 inches long, with two .563-inch diameter holes per ferrule spaced 1.75 inches center-to-center. The tinned copper construction resists corrosion and oxidation, maintaining conductivity over time in harsh environments. Typical uses include grounding straps for switchgear, panel enclosures, and machinery frames where vibration resistance and flexibility are required. The braided design allows for easy installation and accommodates thermal expansion or movement without compromising electrical continuity. Ferrule holes are pre-punched for direct attachment to grounding points using bolts or screws, eliminating the need for secondary drilling. This product meets standard electrical bonding requirements while providing a durable, long-lasting connection. Suitable for indoor and outdoor applications where UL-listed or equivalent grounding solutions are specified.
