Customer Questions & Answers

What shrink ratio does the 13 mm heat shrink tubing have, and what is the minimum diameter after heat is applied?

This heat shrink tubing typically has a 2:1 shrink ratio, which means that from an initial diameter of 13 mm it can shrink to approximately 6.5 mm when heat is applied evenly. Some manufacturers may offer variants up to 3:1. It is recommended to check the specific technical datasheet if greater accuracy is required.

What materials and thicknesses make up the tubing, and is it suitable for outdoor use or UV exposure?

It is usually made from polyolefin, with a wall thickness ranging between 0.4 mm and 0.7 mm after shrinking. Polyolefin offers good mechanical and electrical resistance. However, not all tubing is formulated for prolonged UV resistance, so for outdoor use it is advisable to confirm the specifications of the batch.

What temperature range can the heat shrink tubing withstand, both for shrinking and continuous operation?

The shrinking temperature is usually in the range of 90 to 120°C, and the material supports continuous operation close to 125°C and short periods up to 135°C. Prolonged exposure above this limit may degrade its physical and electrical properties.

What minimum lengths can I order, and how is it supplied: in sections, rolls, or is each metre continuous?

The product is sold by the metre, and in retail it is usually supplied in continuous lengths until the reel runs out; for example, an order of 5 metres is normally delivered as one 5 m piece if stock allows. There may be joins if a length longer than the available roll is requested.

Is there any relevant safety standard or certification, such as UL or RoHS, that this heat shrink tubing complies with?

Many heat shrink tubes comply with standards such as UL224 (flammability) and RoHS (restriction of hazardous substances), which is relevant for electrical and industrial applications. However, the specific certification for the batch purchased should be checked, as there are variants without approval.

What is black 13mm heat shrink tubing used for?

It is used to insulate and protect cables and electrical connections, helping prevent damage from moisture, dust or friction.

How do you apply heat shrink tubing?

It is placed over the cable or connection and heated with a hot air gun or heat source so it shrinks and fits tightly.

Can I buy the amount I need?

Yes, the tubing is sold by the metre so you can buy the exact length you require.

Is it compatible with any type of cable?

Yes, it is compatible with most electrical and electronic cables that need insulation and protection.

What is the heat shrink tubing made of?

The product is made of durable heat shrink material, designed to tighten with heat and protect cables.
