About this deal

Electrical insulation:It creates a protective barrier around wires, preventing short circuits and electrical hazards.

Heat shrink tubing should shrink by at least 20% and not more than 80% of the supplied diameter to achieve the optimal result. Areas where heat shrink tubing is used vary greatly. This is why HellermannTyton focuses on matching all of its heat shrink tubing optimally in the jobs for which it will be used in developing, manufacturing and distributing its heat shrink tubing and heat shrink moulded shapes. RMSare heat shrinkable wrap-around sleeves used in cable repair and splicing applications.The wrap around sleeves are a fast, labour saving and permanent cable repair and sealing system. The sleeve is simply wrapped around the cable and held in place using a rail and channel closure.

Clear Heatshrink Tubings

Fluoropolymer (e.g., Teflon):Fluoropolymer heat shrink tubing offers exceptional resistance to high temperatures, chemicals, and solvents. 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 shrink ratio indicates the rate, the product shrinks (supplied diameter in relation to recovered diameter). The shrink ratio varies from 2:1 to 6:1. The higher the shrink ratio, the more varying diameters of the object can be covered. Thus, fewer sizes of heat shrink tubings are needed. In our application overview for heat shrink tubings you will find the recommended heat shrink tubing size for every cable diameter. Alternatively the tubing should be shrunk down by starting at one, the most critical, end and shrinking down slowly towards the other end.

Note 2:Heat shrink tubing will also shrink longitudinally. This has to be considered when cutting the tubing. The operating temperature varies per tubing type. This is dependent of the compound used for the tubing type Environmental protection:The tubing provides resistance to moisture, chemicals, abrasion, and UV radiation.Note 6:When choosing the tubing size it is important to consider the 80%/20% rule. This means the tubing size should be chosen to allow minimum shrinkage of 20% and a maximum of 80%. Discover a complete application overview in our product catalogue.

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. Specialty Heat Shrink Tubing: There are various specialty heat shrink tubing options available for specific applications. Note 5:When cutting heat shrink tubing and wrap around sleeves to the desired length special care has to be taken to ensure smoothly cut ends. Poorly cut and irregular edges can cause heat shrink tubing and sleeves to split during shrinkage.

Product highlights in the field of heat shrink tubing:

Every single piece of heat shrink tubing has to match its specific area of work to the highest degree of accuracy – from batch production, for example as the insulating handles of tools, to heat shrink tubing sleeves for maintaining underground cables which have already been laid and which would be extremely expensive to repair in terms of resources and costs without using corresponding specialised heat shrink tubing (heat shrink cable repair sleeves). 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. 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. 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.
