Get Polyolefin Heat Shrink Tubing for use in industrial applications, cable repair, intricate electronics protection, and anywhere you need a versatile seal to insulate and secure electrical components.
What is Shrink Tube?
Heat Shrink Tube’s unique composition melts when heated, creating a seal around interior components that fits closer than any other insulation possible. Heat shrink tube also acts as a sealant for moisture in small spaces. Of all shrink tubing materials available, polyolefin tubing heat shrink is most popular due to its flexibility and low shrink temperature.
What is Heat Shrink Used For?
Practical uses for heat shrink include Wire Insulation, Wire Identification, Wire Bundling, Mechanical Protection, Color Coding, Lightweight Harnessing, Strain Relief, and Solder Insulation. With a maximum continuous use temperature of 135°C, our Polyolefin tubing ensures extended use in extreme conditions. Shrink temperature is 120°C and operating temperature of -55°C to + 135°C.
Colored Heat Shrink Tubing:
Our 2:1 Polyolefin Heat Shrink Tubing is available in a full spectrum of 12 standard colors, making it the ideal solution for comprehensive wire identification and professional color coding. Using dedicated colors improves safety, streamlines troubleshooting, and provides a polished finish.
We offer a complete range, including:
Black Heat Shrink Tubing: The industry standard for reliable general insulation. Black tubing provides maximum UV resistance and flame retardancy, making it perfect for outdoor and high-stress environments where a professional, finished appearance is required.
Clear Heat Shrink Tubing: Essential for inspection, Clear tubing allows for complete visual monitoring of splices, components, or pre-existing wire labels. It offers robust protection without obscuring visibility.
Red Heat Shrink Tubing: Widely utilized for safety and polarity, Red tubing is the standard choice for identifying positive leads, 'hot' connections, or critical energized conductors in electrical and automotive applications.
White Heat Shrink Tubing: A high-visibility option, White tubing is frequently selected as a clean, bright background for custom thermal printing, marker writing, and general labeling applications.
Yellow/Green Heat Shrink Tubing: This is the most critical safety color. The Yellow/Green striped tubing is the international standard for clearly designating protective Earth or Ground connections.
Blue Heat Shrink Tubing: Typically used for coding neutral wires in certain standards or for isolating specific signal lines, Blue tubing helps to clearly differentiate specialized circuits.
Yellow Heat Shrink Tubing: A general-purpose color for coding signal wires, specific phases, or when marking lines that require visual attention.
Orange Heat Shrink Tubing: Due to growing demand, Orange tubing is now critical for marking high-voltage (HV) cables, particularly in electric and hybrid vehicle (EV) systems, signaling danger.
Pink Heat Shrink Tubing: For specialized or customized color schemes where the standard 12 colors have been used, Pink tubing provides a distinct option for unique circuit identification.
Green, Brown, Gray, and Violet Heat Shrink Tubing: These colors complete our standard offering, providing every necessary option for complex harness assembly and adherence to multi-phase or detailed wiring maps.
