Hilltop Products Ltd Heat Shrink Tubing Kit - 50 Clear Tube Sleeving pack

Product Information

Heat shrink tubing should shrink by at least 20% and not more than 80% of the supplied diameter to achieve the optimal result. From adhesive lined heat shrink tubing to transparent heat shrink tubing which allows the identifying elements to remain visible on cables to be insulated, HellermannTyton offers a comprehensive range of heat shrink tubing products that meets the highest international standards. Environmental protection:The tubing provides resistance to moisture, chemicals, abrasion, and UV radiation. Heat shrink tubings do not shrink only in diameter, but generally also in length. This change in length after shrinking is indicated in a percentage Polyolefin (PO):Polyolefin tubing is the most widely used and versatile type of heat shrink tubing.

Heating by a torch will shrink the heat shrink sleeve and melt the adhesive inner coating resulting in a moisture-proof, insulating and tight-fitting repair. The sleeve provides excellent corrosion protection,abrasion and weather resistance making it also ideal for LV cable joint outer protection. The high shrink ratio limits the number of sizes to only 6. Each size covers a range of cable sizes. RMS is available in various standard lengths. Other lengths available on factory request. Heat Shrink Connectors https://uk.rs-online.com/web/c/connectors/wire-terminals-splices/splice-connectors/Note 3:It is possible to minimise the longitudinal shrink by shrinking the ends first and then the middle section. heat shrink tubing is a type of plastic tubing that shrinks when heated, hence the name "heat shrink." It is commonly used for electrical insulation, protection, and bundling of wires, cables, and other components. The tubing is typically made from materials like polyolefin, polyvinyl chloride (PVC), or fluoropolymers. It is available in various sizes and colours to accommodate different applications. When heat is applied to the tubing, either through a heat gun or an oven, it undergoes a shrinking process. The tubing's diameter reduces, and it conforms tightly to the shape of the object it is covering. This provides an effective barrier against moisture, dust, chemicals, and physical damage. What are the benefits of heat shrink Tubing? Heat shrink tubingwith a shrink ratio of 2:1 offers: HFT-A, TL27, TF21, TF24, VITON-E, TK20, TK29, TFE-2, TR27, TCN20 and SE28. Strain relief:By shrinking around the wires or cables, it helps relieve stress on the connection points and prevents the wires from bending or breaking. HellermannTyton provides workers and decision-makers involved in manufacturing with a solution fit to their specific needs, which is tailor-made for their specialist area or, to put it another way, every piece of HellermannTyton heat shrink tubing makes problems shrink, even before they arise.

For thin wall tubing with a shrink ratio of 2:1 (standard tubing) the diameter is usually in inch sizes 25.4 mm equals 1 inch.

Product highlights in the field of heat shrink tubing:

Dual-Wall Heat Shrink Tubing: Dual-wall tubing consists of an inner layer of adhesive and an outer layer of heat-shrinkable material. When heated, the tubing shrinks, and the inner adhesive layer melts and creates a moisture-resistant seal. Note 2:Heat shrink tubing will also shrink longitudinally. This has to be considered when cutting the tubing. Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC): PVC heat shrink tubing is known for its flexibility, durability, and flame-retardant properties. It is commonly used in applications where resistance to oils, fuels, and chemicals.
