FAQ – Frequently Asked Questions
Q1: What does a "2:1 shrink ratio" mean?
A: It means the sleeving's diameter after heating (shrinking) will be approximately half of its original diameter. For example, a 10mm sleeve will shrink to about 5mm.
Q2: What is the primary material used for this sleeving?
A: It is typically made from cross-linked polyolefin, which provides excellent thermal, mechanical, and electrical properties. PVC options are also available for specific requirements.
Q3: How do I apply the heat shrink sleeving?
A: Place the sleeve over the wire harness and apply heat evenly using a heat gun, hot air tunnel, or other suitable heating tool until it shrinks tightly and uniformly around the bundle.
Q4: Can this sleeving be used for outdoor or harsh environment applications?
A: Yes. It offers resistance to moisture, UV (optional with special grades), and many chemicals, making it suitable for outdoor, industrial, and automotive applications.
Q5: Is the sleeving flame retardant?
A: Flame-retardant versions are available. Please specify your requirement, and we can provide sleeving that meets relevant flame rating standards.
Q6: Can I get custom colors or sizes?
A: Yes. We offer customization for colors and diameters to match your specific wire harness design and identification needs.
Q7: What certifications does this product have?
A> Our manufacturing processes adhere to stringent quality management systems. The sleeving can be produced to meet UL recognition and RoHS compliance upon request. Please contact us for specific certification details for your order.
Q8: How do I choose the correct size?
A: Select a pre-shrink diameter slightly larger than the maximum diameter of your wire bundle. After shrinking, it will conform tightly. We can assist you with sizing recommendations based on your harness specifications.
