FAQs
How do I shrink the tubing?
We recommend you use a hot air gun - for large volume a specialist oven is best. We supply a range of heat guns and accessories which are suitable for this task.
Can you print onto heat shrink tubing?
Yes - either using thermal transfer printing, ink jet or laser marking. We have cable identification products which are suitable for this task.
Is heat shrink tubing available in colours?
Yes - standard colours are black, brown, red, blue, yellow, green, grey, white, clear green/yellow plus non-standard orange and violet.
Can you cut heat shrink?
Yes, but you need to use a cutting machine to provide a clean cut to prevent splitting of the product when you recover the tubing by applying heat. You may be interested in our cutting services.
