ES2000 heat shrink tubing : Flame-retardant, adhesive-lined, extended temperature range

Adhesive-lined ES2000 heat shrink tubing is specifically designed to meet automotive industry requirements for environmental sealing and electrical insulation of automotive wire splices, terminations, and components.

Overview

ES2000 tubing has an outer jacket of radiation-crosslinked, semirigid polyolefin. Flame-retardant and mechanically tough, the jacket provides strain relief and abrasion protection of wire splices and mechanically sensitive components. The inner layer of the tubing is a unique hot-melt adhesive, specially formulated to adhere to all major types of automotive wire insulation and to perform well at an extended temperature range. The adhesive forms an effective barrier against automotive fluids and moisture, helping to protect the harness from the effects of corrosion and water wicking.

 

Because ES2000 tubing has a high shrink ratio, only a few sizes are needed to cover a wide range of splice and component diameters. ES2000 tubing dimensions have been engineered to provide low-cost sealing solutions on multiple-wire splices (up to seven wires per side), using standard TE’s application equipment.

Features

  • 4:1 shrink ratio allows a few sizes to cover a wide range of splice and component diameters
