About Heat-Shrink Tubing

High-Strength Heat-Shrink Tubing
With excellent resistance to tears, cuts, chemicals, and high temperatures, this tubing withstands demanding use.
PVDF tubing resists cuts from being dragged over rough surfaces, along with tears from stretching or flexing. It has an additive that makes it flame retardant, so it resists combustion and minimizes the spread of flames.
SAE AMS-DTL-23053/8 tubing meets requirements for material quality.
Flame rated VW-1 tubing meets requirements for preventing the spread of flames based on a timed test with vertically suspended material.
Dielectric strength is the maximum voltage a material can handle before it starts to breakdown. The higher the dielectric strength of a material, the better it is for preventing electricity, heat, or signal from dissipating from wire and cable.

Electrical-Insulating Heat-Shrink Tubing
Insulate and protect high-voltage devices. This tubing withstands higher voltages than standard heat-shrink tubing because it’s made of a flame-retardant material with excellent electrical insulation properties. It’s orange, so it’s easy to identify.
Tubing for a maximum voltage of 2500V AC is designed for use in electric vehicles. It shrinks at a lower temperature than 5000V tubing, so you can avoid damaging nearby components when applying heat. This tubing meets UL 224 VW-1 for flame retardance.
Dielectric strength is the maximum voltage a material can handle before it starts to breakdown. The higher the dielectric strength of a material, the better it is for preventing electricity, heat, or signal from dissipating from wire and cable.
