HS-205 // Cross-Linked PVC Heat Shrink
HS-205 PVC
Cross-linked (irradiated) PVC delivers all the benefits of standard PVC heat shrink tubing, with enhanced abrasion resistance and superior solder iron cut-through protection. It also provides excellent dielectric and mechanical performance, making it well suited for rugged heat shrink applications and for use with cross-linked PVC jacketed wire and cable.
Features and Benefits
- 2:1 shrink ratio
- Engineered for total compatibility with cross-linked PVC jacketed wire and cable
- Improved solder iron cut-through and abrasion resistance
- Longer and less heat-sensitive shelf life
- 30% stronger than polyolefin
- Highly flame retardant
- Resists many chemicals and oils*
- Resists sunlight, moisture and fungus
- Highly flexible
- Meets UL, CSA and Military specifications
* Including chlorinated cleaners, lubricating grease, penetrating oils, electrical insulation oils, and others.
Applications
- Applications with cross-linked PVC wire and cable
- Insulation and strain relief of wire harnesses, wire splices, and terminals
- Soldering applications – tubing won’t shrink back or melt
- Applications that require ripple-free conformance around sharp bends
- Applications requiring outstanding dielectric and mechanical protection without damage to enclosed or adjacent components
- Protecting products – outdoors and indoors – from UV light, fading, harsh chemicals, chlorinated cleansers, moisture, fungus, dirt and abrasion
