Premium-Quality Polyolefin Heat Shrinkable Tubing Wall Type: Single-wall (normal – does not have glue/adhesive inside) Sized by: ID (Inner Diameter) Shrink Ratio: 2 to 1 Length: Use the “Lot Size” dropdown to choose either pre-cut pieces or a 10ft uncut coil If you need an uncut or longer length of tubing, we can almost always do this upon request. For example you could choose to buy 4x quantity of the “4 feet” option and then tell us not to cut it so that you get a 16-foot piece. Just let us know, send us a message! We are eager to accommodate your needs!

Diameter is the measure of a round object, not flat. Larger sizes may be flat prior to usage, but they are still ALWAYS sized by ID (inner diameter). Refer to the chart/diagram in the additional photos for further reference! SUMMARY:Made of premium cross-linked polyolefin, a robust and versatile material with excellent properties and durability2 to 1 shrink ratio; will shrink to one half of the nominal (named) diameterThe named diameter is the size BEFORE shrinking. The diameter will shrink to HALF of the named size.Single-wall; contains no adhesivesThe tubing is sized by ID (inner diameter). Diameter is the measure across the opening of a round opened tube. Measuring across the flattened tube is different. Consult the chart in the photos if needed! ?COSMETICS: The tubes are matte finish, not slick/shiny. Most of these tubes normally have the specs printed in tiny text on one side of the tube. However, clear tubing NEVER has text printed on it. White tubes USUALLY have no text. LARGE black tubes usually have no text. You can message me to check the current stock before you buy, just tell me the size(s) and color(s) you need ? RECOMMENDED EQUIPMENT:”Heat gun”, “task oven”, or “tubing torch” to shrink the tubing at 90°C ~ 110°CelsiusDo not overheat the tubing, you can compromise it! Do not use tubing which has been overheated!Work in a non-flammable and well-ventilated workspaceAlways use safety gloves, protective eyewear, and a respiratory mask when heating materials SAFETY/TIPS:Do not perform repairs of electrical/electronic components unless you are a qualified, experienced, and knowledgeable professional. Performing repairs can be very dangerous. Don’t do something stupid! Seek professional assistance/advice!The tubing, adhesive, and items you are working with can get very hot! Be careful not to burn yourself – avoid touching heated objects/materials!Heat-resistant gloves, protective eyewear, and respiratory mask are all recommended. Work in a well-ventilated area and non-flammable workspace. Clear your surroundings to avoid accidents! This includes children and pets!Read and obey all safety instructions for operation of the heat source you choose to utilize when heating the tubing. “Heat guns” or specialized “task ovens” are recommended. Do not exceed 110 degrees Celsius when shrinking the tubing to avoid burning/degrading the tubing! Hair driers do not get hot enough to shrink most tubes, however they may be useful for tiny sizes. Torch/flame is not recommended as you may burn/damage the tubing.While heated, the tubing is in a softened state until it cools, and thus may be easily damaged. Avoid stretching the tubing until it cools and firms up. USAGE INSTRUCTIONS:Read safety guidelinesPrepare equipment and work areaSlide tubing over wireApply heat to tubing to reach 90°C to 110°CelsiusAllow tubing and wire to cool HANDY TIP: The tubing is sized by ID (inner diameter). If you only know the flat width of the tube size you need (measuring across a flattened tube), but aren’t sure what ID you should choose, you can quickly approximate diameter by dividing by 1.6! For example: If you need a tube that is 3 inches wide when flattened, you would divide 3″ by 1.6, which equals 1.875″. That means you should order the 2″ ID tube
