Our Heat Shrink Sleeves are manufactured using a premium quality Polyolefin Thermoplastic, which gives the material its shrinking properties when heat is applied. Commonly used to insulate, protect and conceal cable joints within wiring systems, heat shrink tubing is an essential component for a wide range of electrical applications.
What are Heat Shrink Sleeves?
Heat Shrink Sleeves are flexible tubes that shrink tightly around wires or cables when exposed to heat. They provide a secure layer of insulation and protection against abrasion, moisture or electrical interference. These sleeves can also be used to bundle wires neatly, adding organisation and strain relief to complex harnesses or looms.
