Cellpack 135860 Thick-Walled Heat-Shrink Tubing with Adhesive, 100 cm

The Cellpack 135860 is a professional-grade, thick-walled heat-shrink tubing designed to provide robust insulation and environmental protection for electrical connections. Featuring an integrated internal adhesive layer, this tubing ensures a reliable, moisture-proof seal upon shrinking, making it an essential component for cable repair and maintenance in demanding industrial environments. Its durable construction offers high mechanical strength and long-term stability under various operating conditions.

Advantages

This heat-shrink tubing stands out due to its superior electrical properties and high tensile strength, which ensure long-lasting performance even in harsh settings. The thick-walled design provides excellent resistance to mechanical impact and abrasion. Furthermore, the material is stabilized against UV rays and resistant to chemical agents, allowing for both indoor and outdoor applications. Being halogen-free and non-corrosive, it is a safe choice for sensitive electrical installations, while its infusible nature ensures it maintains structural integrity under thermal stress.

Suitable for

• Electrical insulation of cable joints
• Environmental sealing of cable terminations
• Repairing damaged cable jackets
• Protection of electrical components against moisture and corrosion
• Industrial and professional electrical installations

When it may not be suitable

This tubing is not intended for applications requiring extreme flexibility, as the thick-walled construction is relatively rigid compared to thin-walled alternatives. It may also not be suitable for very small-diameter wires where the shrink ratio and wall thickness might be excessive for the application.

Key specifications

• Wall thickness: Thick-walled
• Adhesive: Internal adhesive layer included
• Length: 100 cm
• UV resistance: Stabilized against UV rays
• Material properties: Halogen-free, non-corrosive, infusible
• Chemical resistance: Resistant to chemical agents
• Mechanical properties: High tensile strength and resistant to cold flow

How to use

To use the Cellpack heat-shrink tubing, first ensure the cable surface is clean and free of debris. Cut the tubing to the required length, ensuring it overlaps the area to be protected. Slide the tubing over the connection and apply heat evenly using a heat gun or a suitable heating tool. As the tubing shrinks, the internal adhesive will melt and flow, creating a secure, moisture-tight seal. Allow the tubing to cool completely before handling or applying mechanical stress to the connection.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify the diameter of your cable to ensure the shrink ratio is appropriate.
• Confirm that the 100 cm length is sufficient for your specific project requirements.
• Ensure you have a heat source capable of reaching the required shrinking temperature.

Usage recommendations

For optimal sealing results, apply heat starting from the center of the tubing and move towards the ends to prevent air pockets. Ensure the tubing is not overheated to maintain its mechanical properties.
