Heat-shrinkable Tubing
Applications
Environmentally seals and
protects a wide variety of
electrical applications,
including back end connec-
tor sealing, breakouts, and
connector-to-cable transi-
tions. High expansion ratio
makes it possible to repair
most damaged cable jackets
without removing connectors.

Heat-shrinkable Tubing
Applications
BSTS heat-shrinkable tubing
is made of a rugged poly-
mer that resists moisture,
fungus, and weathering. It
also has excellent electrical
properties. This tubing is
useful in applications where
insulation, abrasion resist-
ance, and strain relief are
important. When used with
sealant tape (S-1305 for
flame-retardant or S-1278
for non-flame-retardant), it
can provide a watertight
system in nonpressurized
applications.
