Wire and Harness ID Products
Heat-Shrink/Cable Markers
TMS-SCE Military grade heat shrinkable wire identification sleeves
TMS-SCE marker sleeves are designed to meet the wire and cable
marking needs of manufacturers with high performance
requirements. Made from durable, flame retardant, radiation-
crosslinked heat-shrinkable polyolefin, TMS-SCE marker sleeves
can be used in a wide variety of applications. All TMS-SCE meet the
performance requirements of SAE-ASM-DTL-23053/5 class 1.
TMS-SCE-2X meets all of the requirements of SAE-AMS-DTL-
23053/5 classes 1 and 3. The marks are permanent immediately
after printing and remain legible even when exposed to abrasion,
aggressive cleaning solvents, and military fuels and oils. The
sleeves meet the mark permanence requirements of SAE
AS81531 4.6.2 and MIL-STD-202 both before and after
shrinking.
Both 2:1 and 3:1 shrink ratios are available. The 2:1 products
provide a thick, rugged sleeve wall and are particularly easy to
handle. The lightweight 3:1 products provide extremely fast
shrinking and cover a wider range of wire diameters, thus
simplifying inventory.
The marker sleeves are designed to be printed by computer-driven
dot matrix or thermal transfer printers, providing several
advantages in terms of reduced errors, cycle time and cost.
Supplied in a thin, flat “ladder” format, the sleeves are held
horizontally between two hole-punched polyester strips. This
configuration feeds directly from the storage box into a Tyco
Electronics recommended printer. Tyco Electronics recommended
ribbons should always be used. The ladder format provides
automatic kitting of the marker sleeves in the desired sequence. A
standard heat gun with reflector is used to shrink the sleeves onto
the wire or cable.
