PTFE 4:1 Heat Shrink Tubing has the largest expansion ratio available in a PTFE tube, enabling it to protect objects that heat shrink with a smaller expansion ratio cannot. Operating in high temperatures (up to 500°F (260°C)), it is designed to protect instruments, cables and other objects from heat, abrasion and chemical hazards in harsh environments. The tubing is easily able to slip over objects with protrusions or irregular shapes and still provide a snug fit. The thin wall promotes quick installations while keeping the tubing flexible. When heated, the tubing conforms to the size and shape of the original object, providing a protective covering. It may also be used to repair electrical wiring, fittings, cords and other objects. The tubing meets specification AMS-DTL 23053/12A Class 5, ASTM D2902 Type 1, and AMS 3584A. Sizes range from .078”/2mm expanded up to 1-1/4”/31mm expanded. Custom sizes, long lengths, colors and samples are also available.
