Seal, Protect, and Insulate
TE Connectivity produces Raychem Electrical heat shrink tubing that sets extremely high standards in areas such as insulation, protection, and element proofing. Raychem shrink tubing uses a duplication process that involves a cross-linked material design ensuring cable system's performance. This cross-linked design creates an impenetrable barrier from the elements while simultaneously binding cables and insulating them. The heat shrink process involves tubing that utilizes a thermal influence that causes it to tightly shrink and adhere to a cable. This tight seal is not only ultra-protective, but also flexible, abrasion resistant, and easy to use. This flexible tubing can fit a huge range of cable sizes and specifications. Perfect for various different operations and industrial applications. This includes cables, wires, and even joints.
Heat Shrink Tubings
Our tubings are using the TE's Raychem heat shrink technology. During heating, the wire insulation tube shrinks to the original smaller extruded diameter, fitting tightly over a wide range of cable sizes and cable accessories because of its high shrink ratio. At the same time the tubing’s inner sealant wall gives a reliable moisture seal over even the most irregular shapes.
Different Types of Products for Different Uses
Many different tubing specifications are available including forms of thin, medium, and heavy wall tubing. Thinner tubing designs can works for a variety of applications including wire jacking and color coding. Raychem medium wall wire insulation tube provides sealing and protection purposes on low and medium voltage cables and cable accessories. For long-term reliability and endurance in harsh climates, Raychem heavy wall tubing is a suitable option. Much of this tubing has been also been stabilized against UV penetration. Our range is made of standard poly or elastomeric insulated options as well as rejacketed cables or lead-jacketed cables.
