Overview
Heat Shrink Tubing with Adhesive 16 mm 1 m Shrink Ratio 4:1 Dual-Wall Polyolefin Black Sealing of Heavy Cable Joints and Cable Loops

The dual-wall heat shrink tubing with adhesive, with a diameter of 16 mm, is designed for insulation and sealing of joints in thick cables, large cable loops, and wire bundles. Before shrinking, it has an inner diameter of 16 mm and, due to the shrink ratio of 4:1, it shrinks down to 4 mm when heated. It tightly encases joints that are significantly thicker at one end than the other, such as a crimped loop at the end of a wire. The inner layer of hot melt adhesive melts upon heating and seals the joint from the inside against water and moisture. The package contains 1 m of tubing, which you can cut into pieces as needed.

The tubing consists of two layers. The outer polyolefin jacket protects the joint from abrasion and mechanical damage, while the inner adhesive hardens upon cooling and strengthens the joint against pulling. The wall thickness after shrinking is approximately 1.7 mm, with the adhesive layer making up about 0.6 mm. The material is self-extinguishing. The 16 mm diameter is suitable for heavy power and battery cables, for welding cables, for large cable loops and terminals, and for joining several wires into one bundle. One metre is sufficient for a one-time repair or minor adjustment of power cabling.

Compared to tubing without adhesive, this version protects the joint much better against water ingress along the wire. It is therefore particularly suitable for cables that are outdoors or in damp environments, such as for leads to a winch, cabling to a car battery, wiring to solar panels, or electrical installations on a boat.

  • Contents of Package – heat shrink tubing with adhesive with a diameter of 16 mm in a length of 1 m

Before joining, slide a piece of tubing onto the cable and after completing the joint, move it over the centre. Heat it evenly from all sides with a hot air gun until it tightly shrinks and adhesive appears at the edges. The adhesive melts at a temperature of 100 °C. Work from the centre of the joint to the edges to allow air to escape, and move the cable only after it has completely cooled.

The black dual-wall tubing with adhesive, with a diameter of 16 mm, protects joints of thick cables, large cable loops, and wire bundles. The hot melt adhesive seals the joint against water and strengthens it against pulling. The metre package is suitable for quick repairs in cars, workshops, and on boats. Cut the necessary piece, slide it onto the cable, and heat it. Keep the remaining tubing for future repairs.
