Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the shrink ratio of this dual wall heat shrink tubing?
A: This heat shrink tubing has a 4:1 shrink ratio, meaning it shrinks down to one quarter of its original inner diameter when heat is applied. This makes it ideal for covering a wide range of cable and connector sizes with a single tube diameter.
Q: Does this heat shrink tubing provide a waterproof seal?
A: Yes. The dual wall design features an outer polyethylene shell and an inner layer of hot-melt adhesive. When heated, the adhesive melts and flows around the cable or connector, creating a waterproof, moisture-resistant seal — perfect for marine, automotive, and outdoor electrical applications.
Q: What sizes are available and how do I choose the right one?
A: This tubing is available in 4mm, 6mm, 8mm, 12mm, 16mm, and 20mm inner diameters. To choose the correct size, measure the outer diameter of the cable or connector you need to cover and select a tubing size that is slightly larger before shrinking — the 4:1 ratio ensures a tight fit after heating.
Q: What tool is recommended for shrinking this tubing?
A: A heat gun is the recommended tool for shrinking this tubing evenly and efficiently. Apply heat gradually and move the gun along the length of the tube to ensure uniform shrinkage and proper adhesive flow throughout.
