CableOrganizer.com Knowledge Database - F.A.Q.



What size of Heat Shrink Tubing should I use for my application?
The basic answer is that it depends upon the specific application. A good approach to determining the size of tubing you need to use is simply to use one that will shrink to about 70% of the minimum supplied I.D. For example, to cover a cable that has a diameter of ?-inch, a tubing with a minimum supplied diameter of 1-inch should be used. To cover a ?-inch cable, a ?-inch tube should be used. The last step is to determine what shrink ratio you need. If the cable has to fit over a connecter that is larger than the wire, then the ratio of shrinkage might increase. There are three types: 2:1, 3:1 and 4:1 shrink ratio.
