The Ancor Heavy Wall Heat Shrink Tubing is a convenient solution for your electrical wiring needs. This package includes two red tubing sections, each measuring 12 inches in length and 1 inch in diameter. The tubing is designed to shrink down to a 3/8 inch diameter when exposed to heat.
One of the key features of this tubing is its superior strength compared to PVC tubing. Made from cross-linked polyolefin, it is much stronger and more durable. Additionally, it has a heat-activated adhesive lining that forms a tight seal, making it resistant to salt water, oil, acids, and sunlight. The adhesive lining also provides strain relief, ensuring that your wiring is protected and secure.
The Ancor Heavy Wall Heat Shrink Tubing has a 3:1 shrink ratio, meaning it shrinks down to one-third of its original size when heated. It has a shrink temperature of 257°F / 125°C, and an operating temperature range of -40°C to 110°C. This makes it suitable for a wide range of applications.
This product is UL 224 compliant, meeting the required safety standards. However, it is important to note that it contains di(2-ethylhexyl)phthalate (DEHP), a chemical known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects, or other reproductive harm.
