When choosing sizes,
make sure you are thinking in terms of DIAMETER
. Diameter is the measure of a round object, not flat. Larger sizes may be flat prior to usage, but they are still ALWAYS sized by ID (inner diameter). Refer to the chart/diagram in the additional photos for further reference!
SUMMARY:
Made of premium cross-linked polyolefin, a robust and versatile material
with excellent properties and durability
2 to 1 shrink ratio; will shrink to one half of the nominal (named) diameter
Single-wall; contains no adhesives
The tubing is sized by ID (inner diameter). Diameter is the measure of a ROUND shape, not flat.
Most of these tubes have specs printed on the side of the tube. However, the clear tubing NEVER has text printed on it.
RECOMMENDED EQUIPMENT:
"Heat gun" or specialized "task oven" to shrink the tubing at 90°C to 110°Celsius
Non-flammable and ventilated workspace
Safety gloves, protective eyewear, respiratory mask
SAFETY/TIPS:
Do not perform repairs of electrical/electronic components unless you are a qualified, experienced, and knowledgeable professional. Performing repairs can be very dangerous. Don't do something stupid! Seek professional assistance/advice!
The tubing, adhesive, and items you are working with can get very hot!
Be careful not to burn yourself - avoid touching heated objects/materials!
Heat-resistant gloves, protective eyewear, and respiratory mask are all recommended
. Work in a well-ventilated area and non-flammable workspace. Clear your surroundings to avoid accidents! This includes children and pets!
Read and obey all safety instructions for operation of the heat source you choose to utilize when heating the tubing. "Heat guns" or specialized "task ovens" are recommended. Do not exceed 110 degrees Celsius when shrinking the tubing to avoid burning/degrading the tubing! Hair driers do not get hot enough to shrink most tubes, however they may be useful for tiny sizes. Torch/flame is not recommended as you may burn/damage the tubing.
While heated, the tubing is in a softened state until it cools, and thus may be easily damaged. Avoid stretching the tubing until it cools and firms up.
USAGE INSTRUCTIONS:
Read safety guidelines
Prepare equipment and work area
Slide tubing over wire
Apply heat to tubing to reach 90°C to 110°Celsius
Allow tubing and wire to cool
HANDY TIP:
The tubing is sized by ID (inner diameter).
If you only know the flat width
of the tube size you need (measuring across a flattened tube), but aren't sure what ID you should choose, you can quickly
approximate diameter by dividing by 1.6!
For example: If you need a tube that is 3 inches wide when flattened, you would divide 3" by 1.6, which equals 1.875". That means you should order the 2" ID tube
