DESCRIPTION
Our heat shrink sleeving is the perfect way to protect your cables. Made from Polyvinylidene Fluoride, KYNAR ®, it is resistant to flames and most industrial fuels, solvents, and chemical agents. With a heat shrink ratio of 2:1, it provides superior protection against abrasion and perforation. The operating temperature range of -55 to +175 degrees Celsius makes it ideal for a wide variety of applications.
The sleeving has thin walls making it semi-rigid and flexible while still being highly durable. This clear tubing provides superior visibility of cables and wire harnesses and quickly and evenly covers wires, cables, terminations and other components.
Clear heat shrink sleeving is perfect for areas where you need to maintain a high level of visibility such as on circuit boards or when splicing multiple cables together. The sleeving is extremely tough and you won’t need to worry about abrasion, cuts, fluids, mechanical damage or strain, it is also highly flame-retardant.
Clear heat shrink sleeving can be shrunk using a heat gun or a heat shrink oven; however, before heating always check to ensure you know the correct heating temperature of your tubing.
APPLICATIONS
- Component protection
- Strain relief of wire, connectors, solder joints, switches
- Suitable for use in harsh, hostile environments
- Aerospace and defense applications
