CellPack 144396 heat-shrink tubing, 100 cm length, is a single-piece thin-wall shrink tube designed to insulate, protect and bundle wires, cable joints and terminations. The tube provides reliable dielectric insulation and abrasion resistance for household and light industrial electrical repairs. This product is free from paint-wetting inhibiting substances, stabilized against UV rays and resistant to many chemical agents. A standard spool may include sections tied together; other lengths are available on request.
Advantages
This heat-shrink tubing features a thin wall construction without thermoplastic adhesive, offering high flexibility and superior electrical properties while maintaining a compact profile. The material is non-corrosive, infusible and resistant to cold flow, delivering thermal stability and high tensile strength for mechanical protection and strain relief. The tubing is inscribable for marking and identification and is self-extinguishing in colored versions, improving safety in electrical assemblies.
Suitable for
- Insulating and protecting individual wires and cable splices
- Cable strain relief and reinforcement at connectors
- Bundling and organizing wiring runs in household appliances and light industrial equipment
- Repairing damaged insulation on power cords and low-voltage cabling
- Applications requiring UV-stable, chemically resistant sleeving

How to use
Cut the heat-shrink tubing to the required length, slide it over the wire or joint to be protected and apply heat evenly using a heat gun, hot air tool or suitable heating device until the tubing shrinks snugly around the conductor. Ensure even heating to avoid local overheating; allow the assembly to cool so the tubing sets with correct mechanical and electrical properties. If precise positioning is required, mark the tubing before shrinking using a suitable inscribable marker.
Usage recommendations
For consistent results, select a heat source with adjustable temperature and keep the nozzle moving to prevent scorching. When using on power conductors, verify that the shrunk tubing diameter and dielectric rating match application requirements. Store the tubing away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures to preserve UV stabilization and flexibility. For lengths not matching the single-piece 100 cm, request available alternatives from the supplier.
