High-Strength Heat-Shrink Tubing

With excellent durability and chemical resistance, 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.

Harsh Environment Heat-Shrink Tubing Assortments
Maintain a supply of tubing in a variety of sizes and materials that withstands harsh conditions such as abrasion, moisture, and chemicals.
PVC tubing has excellent resistance to chemicals, oil, and acids.
Polyolefin is for general purpose use. Polyolefin with adhesive creates a water-resistant seal; the adhesive melts when heated and bonds to the underlying surface.
PTFE has excellent abrasion resistance and withstands higher temperatures than other tubing.
FEP tubing is high strength to resist abrasion, cuts, tears, and chemicals.
PVDF resists abrasion, cuts, and tears.
