    About Heat-Shrink Tubing
    industrial info icon

    Find tubing with the right shrink ratio, flexibility, and dielectric strength. Plus, compare materials by chemical resistance temperature, and more.

    Heat-Shrink Tubing

    Use this general purpose polyolefin tubing to create a tight, custom-fit insulation to protect wire and cable.

    SAE AS23053/5 Class 1 and SAE AS23053/5 Class 3—SAE tubing meets requirements for material quality and color.
    UL 224 VW-1—Flame rated VW-1 tubing meets requirements for preventing the spread of flames based on a timed test with vertically suspended material.
    Dielectric Strength—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.
