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

Product Information

In our application overview for heat shrink tubings you will find the recommended heat shrink tubing size for every cable diameter. 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. Electrical insulation:It creates a protective barrier around wires, preventing short circuits and electrical hazards. 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). Heat shrink tubing should shrink by at least 20% and not more than 80% of the supplied diameter to achieve the optimal result.

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.

Heat shrink tubing fitting your requirement best.

Heat Shrink Connectors https://uk.rs-online.com/web/c/connectors/wire-terminals-splices/splice-connectors/ 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. 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.

The cable repair sleeveRMS is especially useful for repair of long and buried cables where it would be difficult or impossible to use a shrink tubing.Note 2:Heat shrink tubing will also shrink longitudinally. This has to be considered when cutting the tubing. According to the requirements set, the shrink ratio, that is to say the precise size to which heat shrink tubing is capable of shrinking, can be just as important in this process as dispensing with halogeneous materials in the manufacturing of heat shrink tubing. The 80-20 rule means that a heat shrink tube should shrink by a maximum of 80% and a minimum of 20%.

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. Environmental protection:The tubing provides resistance to moisture, chemicals, abrasion, and UV radiation. Polyolefin (PO):Polyolefin tubing is the most widely used and versatile type of heat shrink tubing.

You can only compare up to four products at a time.

This means HellermannTyton sets the pace with each new piece of heatshrinkable tubing when it comes to providing protection against mechanical, environmental, chemical or electrical effects.
