    Heat-Reflecting Wire Sleeving

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Wire Sleeving. Heat-Reflecting Wire Sleeving.
    Protect wire, cable, and hose from heat radiating off hot objects, such as molten metal. Coated in aluminized PET, also known as Mylar, this sleeving reflects most heat without letting it pass through, so it can handle intermittent radiant heat up to 2000° F. The liner is a blend of aramid and Kevlar that withstands continuous temperatures up to 650° F. This sleeving is stitched together with PTFE-coated silica fiberglass threads, which are just as heat resistant as the sleeving. It doesn’t stretch, so it’s best to know the exact diameter of the items you’re protecting.

    Thin-Wall High-Strength Heat-Shrink Tubing

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Heat-Shrink Tubing. Thin-Wall High-Strength Heat-Shrink Tubing.
    Even with walls as thin as plastic wrap, this PET tubing withstands tears and nicks. Thanks to its thin walls, it shrinks down in seconds instead of minutes and at lower temperatures than PVDF and FEP tubing. It also resists oil and grease. The sleeving is often used as a replacement for tape because it is durable and easy to install. Also known as Mylar tubing.
    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.

    Because of their square shape, these tubes can be stacked, and the flat surface is easier to label than a round surface. Use scissors to cut them down to the length you need. They are oil and moisture resistant and protect long, thin objects during shipping.
