Pros
- Easy To Use
- Gels Seals Around Wire
- Shrinks Down Snug On Wire
Cons
Best Uses
- Covering Frayed Sections
- Covering Joints Splices
Working in a healthcare setting, I get a lot of wires and cables that are stressed badly, but still safe and working. I also need to slip the tubing over a connector, such as USB. This shrink tubing is large enough to fit over the connector, yet shrinks all the way down to tightly seal and shield the standard USB wire.
