Braided wire

Flexible Metal Hose Deeply corrugated thin brass, bronze, Monel, aluminum, and steel tubes are covered with flexible braided-wire jackets to form flexible metal hose. Both tube and braid are brazed or welded to pipe-thread, union, or flanged ends. Failures are often the result of corrosion of the braided-wire jacket or of a poor... 

Note Wherever a cable lead connecting the above devices (such as for RTDs) has to pass through a magnetic field, it may be screened with tinned copper-braided wires to nullify the effect of stray fields. The field may distort the readings. 

What has been described so far constitutes only one half of the friction primer, ie, the main charge, contained in a cylindrical cup. Centrally located in the K chlorate mixt was a loop of braided wire, coated with red P (90%) and dried shellac (10%). Any mixt of red P with K. chlorate was, and still is, very sensitive, hazardous, and unpredictable. There is ample reason to understand why friction primers were abandoned and replaced with spring-actuated firing pins to fire percussion primers and carry the sequence thru a suitable expl train...

In a typical friction primer for an airplane flare, ignition is secured by pulling a loop of braided wire coated with red phosphorus and shellac through a pellet, made from potassium chlorate (14 parts) and charcoal (1.6 parts), hardened with dextrin (0.3 part). 

In that case braided wire can also be used. In the past, major power supply manufacturers had their own special custom-made metal brackets to connect the earth prong of the IEC inlet socket to the enclosure. But nowadays, standard IEC 320 inlets with built-in metal brackets are directly available, such as that from Methode Electronics Inc. at www.methode.com. 

Braided wires can also be used in the same configuration as stamped boats this is most effective for metals which melt, although large chips of metals which sublime also can evaporate well from coiled braids. Molten metals are drawn into the wire via capillary action and then evaporate. Because braided wires have a higher electrical and thermal resistance than wide foil boats, and...

Epimyocardial leads do not require a stylet for implantation and thus there is more flexibility in condnctor design condnctors. Most epimyocardial leads use a braided wire conductor (Fig. 1.21). Despite this, fractures ranain a significant problem because of the stresses imposed by the movement of the heart, diaphragm, and abdominal muscles. 

Epicardial leads can be used in a standard bipolar or unipolar configuration. Pacing and sensing thresholds tend to deteriorate over several days. Epicardial leads with specially designed epicardial electrodes (as opposed to uninsulated braided wire) provide lower pacing thresholds (54, 55). The leads are removed by simple traction. The use of temporary epicardial wires is generally safe. In one series of more than 9,000 patients no complications were observed other than inability to remove the electrode in three patients in all three patients the lead wire was simply clipped at the skin without sequelae. The effectiveness and safety of the epicardial system have led to widespread use.
