Microfilament nickel-clad 
expandable stainless steel 
EMI/RFI braided shielding
Save weight and money every time you fly! All-Up-Weight (AUW) has met its match: 
ArmorLite™ microfilament stainless steel braid saves pounds compared to standard 
QQ-B-575/A-A-59569 EMI/RFI shielding. ArmorLite™ is an expandable, flexible, high
strength, conductive stainless steel microfilament braid material designed for use 
as EMI/RFI shielding in high-performance wire interconnect systems. The principal 
benefit of ArmorLite™ is its extreme light weight compared to conventional nickel/
copper shielding. By way of comparison, 100 feet of 5/8 inch ArmorLite™ is more than 
four pounds lighter than standard 575 A-A-59569 shielding. Plus, ArmorLite™ offers 
superior temperature tolerance compared to other lightweight tubular braided shielding  
including microfilament composite technologies.
ArmorLite™ is an ultra-lightweight 
microfilament stainless steel  
EMI/RFI braided shielding.  
Available as tubular sleeving as well 
as direct factory overbraiding for 
point-to-point and multi-branch 
interconnect assemblies.
