Ancor Heat Shrink Tubing (ALT) – 3 – 8-inch x 3-inch – 3 Pack – Black

This product is a package of three black heat shrink tubing sections measuring 3 inches (7.6cm) in length and 3/8 inch (9.5mm) in diameter. When heated, the tubing will shrink to 1/8 inch (3.2mm) in size. It is designed for wire sizes ranging from 12-8 AWG.

One of the key features of this heat shrink tubing is that it is made from cross-linked polyolefin, which makes it much stronger than PVC tubing. Additionally, it is resistant to burning and provides an impervious seal to salt water, oil, acids, and sunlight. It also offers strain relief.

This tubing has the highest shrink ratio available, meaning it shrinks to one-third of its original size when heated. It shrinks at a temperature of 257°F (125°C). The operating temperature range for this tubing is -40°C to 110°C.

This product is UL 224 certified. However, it is important to note that it contains chemicals, including di(2-ethylhexyl)phthalate (DEHP), which are known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects, or other reproductive harm.
