MATERIAL DESCRIPTION:
Thin wall, flame retarded radiation cross-linked polyolefin heat-shrinkable
tubing, assembled as organized cut sleeves in a “ladder” configuration. 3:1
shrink ratio.
USE:
Identification of wires and cables by computer-based printing onto sleeves.
Sleeves can also provide terminal insulation and strain relief. Suitable for many
commercial applications.
