The ACT ST95Z Heat Shrinking Tube 9.50 mm Black 122 cm is a versatile and reliable solution designed for electrical insulation, wire bundling, and mechanical cable protection. Manufactured by ACT, this high-quality heat shrink tubing provides a secure fit around cables and connections when exposed to heat, ensuring long-lasting performance in various technical environments. With a pre-shrink diameter of 9.50 mm and a generous length of 122 cm, it accommodates a wide range of wiring tasks for both professionals and DIY enthusiasts.
Advantages
This heat shrinking tube offers excellent durability and reliability for everyday wiring and cable management needs. The black color ensures a professional, discreet finish that blends seamlessly into most installations. Its material properties provide effective electrical insulation, protecting vulnerable wire splices and connections from environmental wear. The 122 cm length allows users to easily cut custom pieces to fit specific project requirements, reducing waste and ensuring precise application.
Suitable for
- Electrical insulation of wire splices and terminals
- Bundling and organizing loose cables and wiring harnesses
- Mechanical protection for cables against abrasion and wear
- DIY electronics projects and professional electrical maintenance
When it may not be suitable
This product may not be suitable for applications requiring high-temperature industrial shielding or specialized chemical resistance beyond standard thermoplastic capabilities. Additionally, it is not intended for structural load-bearing purposes or high-voltage power transmission systems without appropriate secondary insulation.
Key specifications
- Type: Heat shrink tube
- Color: Black
- Diameter before shrinking: 9.50 mm
- Tube length: 122 cm
- Quantity: 1 piece
How to use
Measure the required length of the heat shrinking tube needed to cover the wire or connection, and cut it using sharp scissors or a utility knife. Slide the tube over the cable before making the connection, or center it over an already insulated splice. Apply an even source of heat, such as a heat gun, moving it steadily back and forth along the length of the tube until it shrinks tightly and conforms uniformly to the underlying surface. Allow the tube to cool completely before handling or testing the connection.
What to consider before purchase
- Verify that the pre-shrink diameter of 9.50 mm is appropriate for the thickness of the cables or components you intend to cover.
- Check the shrink ratio requirements of your specific application to ensure a snug fit after heating.
- Consider the total length needed to complete your project to determine if a single 122 cm tube is sufficient.
Always use an appropriate heat source such as a heat gun in a well-ventilated area, and avoid applying excessive heat in one spot to prevent material damage.
