FAQ
What is the shrinking ratio of the heat shrink tubing?
Heat shrink tubing typically shrinks by a 2:1 ratio, meaning it will shrink to half its original diameter when heated. Some larger diameter tubes offer a 3:1 shrink ratio.
How do I install heat shrink tubing?
Simply slide the tubing over the cable or connector, then apply heat using a heat gun or lighter. The tubing will shrink tightly around the object as it heats up, forming a secure protective covering.
Can I use heat shrink tubing for outdoor applications?
Yes, our heat shrink tubing is designed to withstand environmental factors such as UV exposure and moisture, making it suitable for both indoor and outdoor applications.
Are there custom length options for the tubing?
While the heat shrink tubes come in standard lengths, we offer packs with multiple pieces that can be cut to the desired size to fit your project’s needs.
