We use a combination of materials. RED and BLUE covers are tubular webbing a la static (top rope) supports employed in rock climbing for anchoring. No velcro. FeedThru only.
RED covers a CK Worldwide 17 series torch; BLUE wraps an HTP 17 series, valved, torch; and BLACK shrouds a CK Worldwide 18 torch.
Our GoTo wrap for the 18-series water-cooled CK Worldwide torch is protected in TechFlex's TurtleWrap (
www.wirecare.com). Easy install/deinstall with velcro and high-temp resistant. Made in USA.
Aside: the BLACK and BLUE cover SuperFlex lines by CK Worldwide, while the RED protects an old school (stiff) plastic line.
RED and BLUE are $. BLACK is $$. 25ft of BLACK runs ~ $90, but the material is pliable and way more operator friendly than than the RED/BLUE.
:: Go SuperFlex for all your control cables and wrap in tubular webbing and/or TurtleWrap
