Overview
Braided Heat Shrink Tubing 12 mm 20 m Textile Sleeve for Wire Bundles Shrink Ratio 2:1 Self-Extinguishing for Electrical Installations

The braided heat shrink tubing combines the properties of classic heat shrink tubing and durable textile sleeves. This piece has an internal diameter of 12 mm and a length of 20 m, making it suitable for thicker power cables, wire bundles, and thicker conductors. When heated with hot air, the sleeve shrinks at a ratio of 2:1 and tightly wraps around the protected conductor. The braided surface is flexible, resistant to abrasion, and according to the manufacturer, helps reduce cable noise. The twenty-metre length will cover even longer continuous runs, leaving enough for further modifications of thick cables.

Shrinking begins at approximately 80 °C and full shrinkage is achieved around 120 °C. A hot air gun is sufficient for heating; the manufacturer also mentions the possibility of using a lighter. After cooling, the tubing forms a continuous textile layer that protects the insulation of the conductors from mechanical damage, abrasion, and heat. The material is self-extinguishing with a flammability class of VW-1 and withstands operating temperatures from −40 to +150 °C, making it suitable for wiring in cars or electrical appliances that heat up during operation. The tubing can be used to protect joints, terminate cables, extend conductors, and bundle several thin cables into one neat bundle.

When selecting the size, follow the diameter of the cable. The manufacturer recommends choosing tubing approximately 3 mm larger than the diameter of the protected conductor. For flat cables or bundles with a rectangular cross-section, the required diameter can be calculated by multiplying the sum of the width and height by two, dividing by 3.14, and adding 3 mm. The tubing is supplied in one piece, so you can cut it to the exact lengths you need before shrinking. Slide it onto the cable before connecting the connectors, then move it to the desired position and evenly heat it along its entire length.

The braided heat shrink tubing with a diameter of 12 mm is a practical addition for anyone repairing, modifying, or installing electrical wiring. The length of 20 m is sufficient for extensive modifications of wiring in cars, workshops, or when connecting thicker power lines. The textile surface protects the conductors from abrasion, the heat from the hot air gun quickly shrinks it, resulting in neatly and securely stored wiring. Thanks to its self-extinguishing properties and resistance up to +150 °C, it can be used in electronics, automation, electrical appliances, and in cars.
