Single wall heat shrink tubing, made from flexible polyolefin, provides durable, flame-retardant insulation for wire splices, terminals, and electrical connections. Resistant to heat, chemicals, and abrasion, this tubing ensures a secure fit and strain relief, ideal for electrical and automotive applications.

Product features

  • Material: Single wall heat shrink tube made of flexible, flame-retardant polyolefin tubing.
  • Shrink Ratio: 2:1 shrink ratio ensures the heat shrink tubing reduces to half its size, offering a secure fit for electrical components.
  • Versatile Applications: Perfect for insulating wire splices, terminals, and other electrical connections, while providing strain relief for electrical wires.
  • Temperature Range: Operates from -55°C to 125°C (-67°F to 257°F), with short-term resistance up to 200°C (392°F), making it ideal for demanding environments.
  • Compliance and Certifications: Meets military specification MIL-1-23053/5 class 1 and class 3, UL listed, and CSA certified for trusted quality.
  • Activation Temperature: Shrinks effectively at 100°C (212°F), making installation simple and efficient.
  • Durability and Shelf Life: Heat shrink tubing features an indefinite shelf life, ensuring long-term storage without degradation.

Applications

  • Electrical Wire Insulation: Single wall heat shrink tubing provides a protective insulation layer for exposed or damaged wires, preventing electrical shorts and enhancing safety in wiring systems.
  • Wire Splice Protection: Commonly used to cover and protect wire splices, heat shrink tubing ensures a secure, insulated connection for long-lasting durability.
  • Terminal Connections: Ideal for sealing and insulating electrical terminal connections, preventing corrosion and ensuring reliable performance over time.
  • Cable Strain Relief: Heat shrink tubing provides strain relief for wire and cable connections, reducing stress from movement or vibrations that can lead to wear and tear.
  • Wire Labeling and Color Coding: This tubing can be used for color coding and identifying wires and cables, simplifying organization and maintenance in complex electrical systems.

Material

Single wall heat shrink tubing is crafted from flexible polyolefin, a highly durable, flame-retardant material widely used in electrical insulation. Polyolefin heat shrink tubing offers excellent resistance to heat, chemicals, and abrasion, making it ideal for protecting wire splices, terminals, and electrical connections. Its thin yet strong design ensures reliable insulation and strain relief. The tubing shrinks tightly around objects, creating a secure fit, while its flexibility allows for easy application in various electrical and automotive settings.
