Heat Shrinkable Tube, also known as heat shrink, shrinkable tube, or heat Shrink Tube tubing, is a versatile and essential component for protecting electrical connections, cables, and busbars. Widely used in industrial electronics, automotive, battery energy storage, and renewable energy applications, heat shrink tubing provides excellent insulation, mechanical protection, and environmental resistance.
Our range includes shrink tube heat, shrink heat shrink tubing, shrink tube tape, cable heat shrink tube, cable shrink tube, and heat shrink tube tape, ensuring solutions for every wiring and cabling requirement.
What is a Heat Shrinkable Tube?
A heat shrinkable tube is a polymer-based tubing that shrinks tightly around wires, cables, or components when exposed to heat. It provides:
Electrical insulation
Mechanical protection against abrasion and vibration
Chemical and moisture resistance
Identification and color-coding for wiring systems
In the new energy industry, including EV batteries and solar installations, heat shrink tubes act as protective sleeves and protective tubes to enhance safety and longevity of electrical systems.
Materials and Features
We offer heat shrinkable tubes made from heat-resistant materials suitable for demanding environments:
Polyolefin: Standard heat shrink with excellent dielectric properties
Fluoropolymer (FEP, PTFE): High-temperature and chemical resistance
PVC: Flexible and cost-effective, ideal for general wiring
Cross-linked Polyolefin (XLPE): High mechanical strength and flame retardant
Key features include:
High shrink ratio for tight fit
Excellent heat and chemical resistance
Durable mechanical protection
Color-coded options for easy wiring identification
Compatible with various cable heat shrink tube and cable shrink tube applications

Installation Tips
Choose the correct tube diameter (slightly larger than the cable or component before shrinking).
Slide the shrink tube over the wire or busbar.
Apply heat evenly using a heat gun, oven, or torch until the tube shrinks tightly.
Avoid overheating to prevent damage.
Ensure full coverage of exposed areas for optimal protection.
For heat shrink tube tape, wrap around the cable or busbar and heat until it bonds tightly for insulation and mechanical protection.

FAQ – Heat Shrinkable Tubes
Q1: What is the difference between heat shrink tube and shrinkable tube?
They are essentially the same; both terms refer to tubing that shrinks when heated to provide insulation and protection.
Q2: Can I use heat shrink tubing for high-voltage applications?
Yes, our high-quality polyolefin, FEP, and PTFE TUBEs are suitable for high-voltage and high-temperature conditions.
Q3: What is shrink tube tape?
Shrink tube tape is a wrap-around version of heat shrink tubing that seals around wires or busbars for insulation and mechanical protection.
Q4: Are your tubes suitable for EV battery systems?
Yes, we specialize in new energy heat shrinkable tube and protective sleeves for EVs, solar, and energy storage applications.
Q5: How do I install a heat shrink tube?
Slide the tube over the component and apply even heat until it shrinks tightly and conforms to the surface.
