Types and uses of transparent heat shrink tubing

Did you know that there are many different types of clear heat shrink tubing?

Conclusion: You can choose according to your needs, such as transparency, heat resistance, and waterproofness.

Clear heat shrink tubing is used for a variety of purposes.

In this article, we will introduce the types and uses of transparent heat shrink tubing.

When you want to check the soldering condition

Soldering is a very important task in processing electrical wires and electronic components.

A clear heat shrink tube is used to check the soldering.

In addition to soldering, they are also used in cases where it is necessary to check the contents, such as to prevent corrosion of mechanical parts, fix connections, and fix signs and nameplates.

For this type of application, we recommend THT tubes .

THT tube

①A wide range of sizes

Sizes range from 1φ to 100φ.

②Cutting is also possible

It can be cut with scissors, and can also be delivered cut to the specified length.

*THT cutting service available here

When waterproofing is required

When used to protect outdoor wiring, it must be waterproof as well as transparent.

In particular, for equipment that is continuously exposed to the outdoors, it is necessary to ensure that connections are waterproof and that they are visible during inspection.

By using a transparent and waterproof tube, you can check the condition of the cable without removing the tube.

*Construction vehicles, solar power generation equipment, surveillance cameras, etc.

For this type of application, we recommend CCN tubing .

CCN tube

1. The adhesive prevents water from getting in.

When the tube is shrunk, the adhesive inside the tube melts and adheres to the covered object.

It fills the gaps in the tube.

② With a fixed length of 50m or more, yield loss is reduced.

Our heat shrink tubing comes in 50m rolls, which is longer than other companies' 3m or 5m products.

This improves the yield during processing.

We can also cut the product to lengths of 1m or more, so you can choose the length you want.

When heat resistance is required

Even in cases where the surrounding environment is hot, it may be necessary to check the condition of the coated area.

Temperature sensor cables require high heat resistance to protect the base of the sensor and at the connection points.

For this type of application, we recommend the HC150 tube .

HC150 tube

①High transparency due to PVDF

The thickness after shrinkage is about 0.2 mm, resulting in a highly transparent product.

②It is not only heat resistant but also highly abrasion resistant.

Semi-rigid PVDF is more durable than polyolefin,

It is also resistant to mechanical vibration and friction.

summary

When used in a room temperature environment, THT tube

For outdoor use, use CCN tube

HC150 tubes are used in high-temperature environments such as industrial machinery and heaters.
