About Heat-Shrink Tubing
More
Chemical-Resistant Heat-Shrink Tubing
Use this tubing where wire and cable may be exposed to chemicals, oil, and acids.
PVC plastic tubing is more chemical resistant than rubber. It also resists UV, so it won’t fade or discolor when exposed to sunlight. Store tubing at 70° F or lower to avoid premature shrinkage. Neoprene rubber tubing is abrasion resistant. Viton® fluoroelastomer rubber tubing is more chemical resistant than neoprene rubber. It’s also abrasion resistant and withstands temperatures up to 390° F.
AMS/MIL-DTL-23053/1 Class 2, 23053/2 Class 2, and 23053/13 tubing meets requirements for material quality and color.
MIL-R-46846 Type I, Class 1 and Type III, Class 1 tubing meet stringent military standards for physical, electrical, and chemical performance.
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.

- Material: PVC Plastic
- Shrink Ratio: 2:1
- Dielectric Strength: 1,000 V/mil
- Shrink Temperature: 215° F
- Temperature Range: 0° to 220° F
Made of PVC, this tubing resists chemicals, oil, and solvents. An adhesive lining melts when the tubing is heated and bonds to the underlying surface, creating a water-resistant seal. It resists UV, so it won’t fade or discolor when exposed to sunlight.
Dielectric strength is the maximum voltage a material can handle before it starts to breakdown.

Easy-to-Remove Heat-Shrink Tubing
- Material: Fluoropolymer Plastic
- Shrink Ratio: See Table
- Dielectric Strength: 2,000 V/mil
- Shrink Temperature: 420° F
- Temperature Range: Not Rated to 400° F
Access connections more easily than with standard heat-shrink tubing. Make a small slit in this tubing to peel it away. Made of fluoropolymer, it resists chemicals and withstands temperatures up to 400° F.
Dielectric strength is the maximum voltage a material can handle before it starts to breakdown.
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.
Polyester/rubber tubing is chemical resistant.
Neoprene rubber tubing resists chemicals, oil, and acids.
Viton® fluoroelastomer rubber tubing resists chemicals, oil, acids, and abrasion.
FEP tubing is high strength to resist abrasion, cuts, tears, and chemicals.
PVDF resists abrasion, cuts, and tears.
