La heat-shrinkable tubing is a polymer tube designed to shrink in a controlled manner when heated. This phenomenon allows theperfectly match the shape of the cable, connector or harness on which it is installed, offering complete insulation and reinforced protection.
Manufactured from special polymers such as polyolefin or fluoropolymer, the heat-shrinkable tubing not only ensures mechanical protectionbut also thewaterproofing, electrical insulation and the prevention of short circuits.
It is available in a range of diameters, lengths, colours and shrink ratios, making it suitable for both standard wiring and specific industrial environments.
Because it's so easy to use - all you need is a heat gun - it's a must-have in the fields ofelectricity industrytheautomotiveand telecommunications networks and thepower electronics.
La heat-shrinkable tubing meets all the requirements of manufacturers looking to make their electrical installations more reliable

Slide the sheath over the cable or connection, then heat it with a heat gun or paint stripper until it shrinks perfectly around the support.
Ideally, use a hot air gun. Avoid using a lighter or blowtorch to avoid damaging the sheath or cable.
Choose a suitable diameter, follow the temperature instructions and make sure the sheath covers the area to be protected before heating.
Once retracted, the sheath is difficult to reuse. You will need to cut it carefully using a cutter or dedicated tool.
