Lightweight, Corrosion-Resistant ArmorLite™ Microfilament Solutions plus Industry-Standard Copper Material / QPL Straps, Joints, and Shunts
MIL-DTL-24749 Qualified Ground Straps and Ground Strips
Glenair flexible braided straps are critical components in harsh sea, air, and space environments. They are used to establish reliable ground path connections, dissipate lightning strike energy, and prevent the build-up of electrostatic discharge. Special large form-factor straps are also employed in busbar applications for electrical power distribution up to 1000 Amps.
- Durable, low-resistance flexible ground straps with highly conductive or dissipative performance
- Lightweight, low-resistance flexible braided bond straps for ESD dissipation
- Flat Profile Braided Grounding Straps for optimal electrical conductivity and low-resistance performance
- Heavy-duty variants for low-voltage, high-current power distribution busbar applications
- Glenair signature and qualified military standard designs
- Round rope profile grounding jumpers with and without harsh environment insulation
Glenair supplies a complete range of lugged flexible braided bonding, grounding, and power distribution straps with lightweight ArmorLite microfilament material as well as low-resistance plated copper. In addition to high-availability catalog designs, we are also able to supply custom solutions in virtually any form factor, wire gauge, amperage, resistance, and mounting-lug configuration. Straps may also be supplied with and without insulation jacketing in wire rope (jumper) and flat profiles. Mil-qualified (QPL) straps are available for both topside and submarine applications.
Aircraft-Grade Ground Straps, Flexible ESD Bonding Joints, and Busbar Power Distribution Shunts
Glenair's complete braided ground strap capability includes high-conductivity, low-resistance grounding straps, flexible ESD bonds, and power distribution bus bars — all optimized for rugged environmental, electrical, and mechanical performance in mission-critical air, land, sea, and space applications.
Electrical Performance Advantages of Short, Flat Ground Straps
In grounding and bonding applications, the electrical performance of a flat profile flexible braided ground strap is generally superior to that of a round profile wire rope made of the same weight of material. This whitepaper discusses the key factors that contribute to this performance difference.
