We’re all familiar with using heat shrink to protect and secure wiring terminals and joints, but now Design Engineering Inc has taken the process one step further and is offering heat shrink tubing in a variety of lengths and diameters to protect whole wiring looms.
DEI Heat Shrink Tubes are professional grade flexible polyolefin tubing that provides protection from dirt, dust, solvents, and foreign materials as well as excellent electrical insulation and strain relief. The over-expanded tubing easily fits over the ends of wires and connectors and then shrinks down to 33% of it’s original diameter for a snug water-tight protective seal without a reduction in tube length.
The tough material has functional properties that have been tested and proven to conform to U.S. Military Spec DTL-23053/5C. It is also flame retardant and has an operating range between -67°F to 275°F and can withstand temperatures of up to 394°F for a short duration (30 to 60 mins). It is easy to install: slip over the wire and apply heat at 120 to 180°F using heat gun to shrink to final size.
Prices start at just $12.16.
