General
Colour	Black

The Pliofine SAM 1.6 Box (17m) black shrink tube from Ses-Sterling is a professional protective material for cables and wiring in the field of electrical and IT installation. It serves for mechanical and electrical insulation as well as protection against environmental influences such as dust, moisture or mechanical stress. The product is delivered in a box with a length of 17 metres and is available in black. The packaging is designed for use in craftsmanship and industrial assembly, with the box weighing 206 g.

Shrink tube
The Pliofine SAM 1.6 shrink tube is a thermoplastic shrink tube that, when heated to approximately 100 °C to 120 °C, maintains its original length but reduces its diameter to about half. This 2:1 shrink ratio enables a tight fit around cables and wiring, achieving a dense and secure covering. The material properties ensure high mechanical strength and resistance to external influences.

Applications
The shrink tube is suitable for use in electrical installation, IT infrastructure, and industrial applications. It is frequently used for insulating cable ends, securing wiring, or protecting connection points. The black colour makes it particularly suitable for outdoor applications or technical installations where a discreet and robust covering is required.

Functions and equipment in detail
The shrink tube provides reliable protection through its thermoplastic structure. It shrinks evenly and without distortion, ensuring a homogeneous covering. The black colour is not only aesthetic but also functional, as it is UV-resistant and thus suitable for outdoor use. The length of 17 metres per box enables efficient processing in larger projects without frequent reloading.

Technology explained simply
The shrink tube is activated by heat – for example, using a hot air blower or a special shrink tool. When heated, the tube contracts and conforms precisely to the shape of the underlying cable. The 2:1 shrink ratio means the original diameter of the tube is reduced by half, enabling a tight and dense covering. The material properties ensure that the tube retains its shape after shrinking and does not show cracks or deformations.

Compatibility and accessories
The shrink tube is universally applicable and can be combined with various cable types, such as network cables, power cables, or data lines. It is particularly suitable for applications requiring high mechanical load capacity and dense insulation.

Installation and mounting
Mounting is done by sliding the shrink tube over the cable or wiring to be protected. It is then heated using a hot air blower or shrink tool, causing it to contract and form a tight fit. Processing is simple and requires no additional tools other than the heating device. The box with 17 metres of length allows continuous processing without interruption.

Operational advantages
The shrink tube provides a reliable, durable, and weather-resistant protective layer. The black colour is UV-resistant and thus also suitable for outdoor use. The even shrinkage ensures a clean and professional finish, which is considered a quality feature in electrical and IT installation. The length of 17 metres per box reduces the number of necessary packaging changes in larger projects.
