Overview
Braided Heat Shrink Tubing 12 mm 30 m Textile Sleeve for Cable Bundles Shrink Ratio 2:1 Self-Extinguishing Service and Workshop

Braided heat shrink tubing combines the properties of classic heat shrink tubing and a durable textile braid. This piece has an internal diameter of 12 mm and a length of 30 m, making it suitable for thicker power cables, wire bundles, and thicker conductors. When heated with hot air, the braid shrinks at a ratio of 2:1 and tightly encases the protected conductor. The braided surface is flexible, highly abrasion-resistant, and according to the manufacturer, helps reduce cable noise. The thirty-metre length is sufficient for extensive installations as well as regular work with heavy conductors in service.

Shrinking begins at approximately 80 °C and full shrinkage is achieved around 120 °C. A hot air gun is sufficient for heating, and the manufacturer also mentions the possibility of using a lighter. Once cooled, 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 rating 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, or to combine several thin cables into one neat bundle.

When selecting the size, refer to 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 is calculated by adding the width and height, multiplying 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 accessory for anyone repairing, modifying, or newly installing electrical systems. The length of 30 m covers extensive installations, wiring of distribution boards, and repeated adjustments of bulky bundles in service. The textile surface protects conductors from abrasion, and the heat from the hot air gun quickly shrinks it, resulting in a securely and neatly arranged wiring. Thanks to its self-extinguishing properties and resistance up to +150 °C, it can be used in electronics, automation, electrical appliances, and in vehicles.
