Radiation Resistant Cable Sleeves

[K.J.]

I was hoping someone could help me here. I have several cables, none more than 20 ft. long, that may be exposed to nuclear related radiation (not UV) at up to 20 mRad/hr. Some of the cables have specialty type connectors so my options on cabling is limited.

Does anyone know of a company that provides radiation resistant cable sleeving? Any other suggestions would be great. Thanks!

Can you wrap them in lead tape or does it need to be flexible?

I doubt sleeving will help extend the service life of cables in this service. Shielding may help.

There are special materials available for this service.
