Shrink Tubing

Cable & Wire Shrink Tubing




If you are a professional or amateur electrician, you often work with wires and cables, and most of them have to be insulated and protected from moisture and dust. Shrink tubing is specifically designed to safeguard electrical contacts from anything that can create a short circuit, thus allowing for current to flow freely. A tube has to be pre-trimmed and then slid over a wire, so as to be heat-shrunk and sealed in order to protect the cable underneath. Such products exist in an abundant variety on the market, being manufactured from different types of plastics.

Available in different colors, shrink tubes can also help you not to mess in the wiring and amounts of electrical current going through it. When it comes to automotive applications, these products can be easily color-matched with the fuses, thus making the electrician’s job easier. Shrink tubes are usually manufactured from different plastics, with flexible polyolefin and PVC among them. The products require a source of open flame or heat to shrink in size, so as to protect everything underneath them. Shrink tubing has to be present in every amateur and professional electrician’s toolbox!
