MDPC Sleeve-Kit
The MDPC Sleeve-Kit: This is the pack which perfectionists use as a foundation to create a perfectly sleeved system as you have seen so often on million-dollar-pc.com and in beautiful systems all over the world. Most of the systems which stand out since 2008 - when MDPC started it all - are sleeved with MDPC, because it simply fulfills my MDPC-Philosophy that so many share: No compromise!
This philosophy has no place for the "fool yourself and others" systems with pre-sleeved extensions, which look "cool" through the window ... but once you open up the system, you find the hidden mess of the standard PSU cables connected to the extensions. No ... MDPC is for people who strive for uncompromising systems, uncompromising materials and results with nothing to hide.

No compromise in quality and specifications:
Industrial standard products are not good enough for MDPC. Slight adjustments here and there result in "the MDPC difference" that is a class of its own. Others might get close, but not on par in the combined aspects of sleeve- and heatshrink quality. MDPC Sleeve is not too big (making your cables look fat like a sausage), not too small - just perfectly right and extremely easy to work with.
Of course, this is no dust-collecting and "hairy" textile/fabric/cotton sleeve aka "shoe-lace" material, which is horrible to work with and where the result has no rigidity. The spot-on MDPC rigidity is needed to perfectly compose your wires into a wonderful "flow of curves", a visual piece of art.
You are only here, because your friends recommended MDPC and this should say it all: MDPC is more than just a product! :)
30 meters of SMALL-Sleeve (black):
30 meters of ultra-tight-weave SMALL-Sleeve are perfect for every small cable that you want to sleeve. It's the ideal solution for single wires, fan cables and also small internal USB cables (use it double-layered on medium-sized internal USB cables).
3 meters of 4:1 SMALL-Heatshrink (black):
3 meters of SMALL-Heatshrink are more than plenty for the 30 meters of SMALL-Sleeve. What makes this product so special is not just a 4:1 shrink rate - many offer it ... the difference is the thinnest possible wall-thickness of all heatshrinks that have this size. This gives you the edge when you "shrink seamless into the connector". The big diameter when it's unshrinked makes your work super easy: No hassle, no compromise!
5 meters of SATA-Sleeve (black):
5 meters of ultra-tight-weave SATA-Sleeve are perfect for every SATA cable that you want to sleeve. It just fits "spot-on": Not a millimeter too big, resulting in fat-looking SATA cables - not one millimeter too small, resulting in an opening of the weave and letting the cable shine through. It is also perfect for round SATA cables and bigger internal USB/Firewire etc. cables.
It's also the ideal solution for creative alternatives like "3 cables next to each other in one sleeve" as you can do on PCI-Express or similar cables.
0.7 meters of 3:1 SATA-Heatshrink (black):
0.7 meters of SATA-Heatshrink are more than plenty for the 5 meters of SATA-Sleeve. It just fits over the connector and then it shrinks to create extreme pressure on the underlying SATA-Sleeve so that it can't slip out anymore when it gets stretched with high force. This heatshrink is also used to "stealth" (for example) your fan- or USB-connectors by shrinking partly over the plastic housing which results in a smooth transition with no visible cable: No compromise!
2 meters of BIG-Sleeve (black) plus BIG- and JUMBO-Heatshrink:
2 meters of ultra-tight-weave BIG-Sleeve plus two very big heatshrinks are "the special" of this package. These sizes enable you to be creative! The purpose of the BIG-Sleeve is to sleeve the main part of the 24-pin ATX cable in this single sleeve (you can use it double-layered if needed) - before you make the transition to the individually-sleeved wires at the last 30-40 centimeters of the ATX cable. This enables you to achieve a clean look and save many meters of sleeve that you would usually need if you "go individual" from beginning to end. Of course you can use this sleeve for PCI-Express or similar big bundles too. The two heatshrinks (3:1 BIG and 2:1 JUMBO) are big enough for the "transition shrinking" on PCI-E and also ATX.
Is the same MDPC Sleeve-Kit available in other colors?
No. I recommend to have a look at all the color-choices of SMALL- and SATA-Sleeve in the "sleeve" and "heatshrink" categories. With these you can make your individual color-theme-system complete. Little accents are the key - less is more! Take the MDPC Sleeve-Kit and add the colors of your choice.
Is it enough for my complete system?
If you have a more complex system or want to sleeve every cable individually from the beginning to the end (not using the BIG-Sleeve anymore): Just grab some more of the SMALL-Sleeve and SMALL-Heatshrink here at MDPC-X. An additional 10-20 meter pack of SMALL-Sleeve and 1-2 meter of SMALL-Heatshrink is always a good choice. You will see that it's better to have more than less, because the spirit of perfection inside of you is stronger than you might imagine ... and you won't accept any mistakes you did during the beginning of your sleeving-journey - believe me :-)
How do I learn how to sleeve?
Every customer of MDPC-X get's a full tutorial once shipment is on its way. It's the know-how since the beginning when murderbox and MDPC started the current sleeving-methods and it's continuously fine-tuned based on MDPC sleevers' input and my own experiments.
Do I get a personalized drawing as I have seen so often?
Of course :-) I don't want to just get your money and ship items. This is MDPC ... not just a shop!
