Topic: ISO: techflex!

[poorlyconditioned]

Can anyone point me to a source for techflex?

Better yet, can anyone sell me some?

I'm looking for a small size, suitable for two lavalier (eg., AT853 type) cables.

Thanks,

How much do you need?

I've got 100 foot of grey 1/4" sitting here and I only need about 15 feet for my project.

I some techflex from markertek.com - they have many different sizes...
but, they only sell them in 100' rolls.  I used about 15 feet, and now have 85' lying around.
mine also 1/4", but black.  let me know if you'd like some of mine...

you want the "flexo pet"
$7 for a 25' roll.  you want the 1/8th inch stuff, which is the smallest.
1/4" is HUGE.

the smaller the better.

I have Canare 4S11 sepaker cables.  Anybody have any extra 3/8" tech flex?

I'm pretty sure that you want no larger than 1/4" for those.    The 1/4" will expand enough to slide over some big connectors like Vampire and WBT locking RCAs.

You need grey or black?

the 1/4 will be too large for those cables.  way too large.

1/4 " too large for the 4s11?  I thought that the 4s11 is 3/8 in diameter.

1/4" will be fine.  The 1/4" is the nominal size.  It has a minimum dimension of 1/8" and max of 7/16".

are we talking about 853 cable, like the stuff that the soundpros use?
if so, then 1/8th inch will work, and be tighter.  Its what I use.

I find the 1/4 stuff to be way too big for all the work I do.

this is what i'm recomending the 1/8th for. 
I dont know anything about the other cable.

I've nver worked with techflex before, so do you have to take your connectors off before you put it on, or can you just slide it over the connectors?

Thanks!

[Nick's Picks]

you have to taked it off...depending on the connector.
you want a good tight fit w/this stuff.

You know I could use some of the 1/8" also so if you don't find anyone with some to spare, I'll split a role of 25' with you (or anyone else).   I'll trade some 1/4" for some 1/8".

The 4S11 is the big starquad cables.  1/8 would work if I stripped down to the red and white wires. 

I'll probably need 50 feet of the 1/4 and then probably 8 feet of ther 1/8.  I prefer black.  I have to remeasure my cables.  Its been a while since I made them.
