Further information for Ses-Sterling 07390008001 Pliofine B-EX 1270 spool white shrink tube 2:1
The Pliofine B-EX 1270 heat shrink tube from Ses-Sterling is a professional protective material for electrical wiring, cables, and connections. It is used in installation technology to insulate, protect, and mechanically stabilise cables. The white version is particularly suitable for applications requiring clear visual identification or a specific colour coding. The product is supplied on a reel with a length of 50 metres, enabling efficient processing in larger projects.
Applications
The Pliofine B-EX 1270 heat shrink tube is used in electrical and IT installation technology to protect cables and wiring from mechanical stress, moisture, and contamination. It is particularly suitable for insulating cable connections, bundling cables, and marking wiring. The white colour supports visual differentiation in complex cabling, for example in server rooms, industrial plants, or machine wiring. The product can be used both indoors and outdoors, provided environmental conditions comply with technical specifications.
Functions and Features in Detail
The heat shrink tube has a shrink ratio of 2:1, meaning it reduces to half its original outer diameter when heated. This ensures a tight, form-stable fit around the cable to be protected. The white colour is part of the product designation and is maintained consistently throughout the entire length of the reel. The packaging includes 50 metres of material, enabling continuous processing without frequent reel changes. The weight specification of 18.704 grams per metre serves as a reference for transport and storage planning, although the total weight of the packaging is specified as 0.935 kg.
Technical Explanation
The heat shrink tube is made of a thermoplastic material that shrinks when heated and tightly conforms to the cable underneath. Shrinking is achieved by applying heat, for example using a hot air blower or a dedicated heat shrink tool. The 2:1 shrink ratio means the tube shrinks to half its original diameter when heated, creating a dense, form-stable covering. The white colour is not only visually identifiable but can also be used for cable identification in specific applications. The material composition ensures high mechanical strength and resistance to environmental influences.
Compatibility and Accessories
The Pliofine B-EX 1270 heat shrink tube is suitable for use with various cable types, particularly electrical wiring and data cables. It can be processed using standard hot air blowers or specialised heat shrink tools designed for heating shrink tubes. The use of accessories such as heat shrink pliers or special heating devices is recommended to ensure even and secure shrinking. The white colour enables clear visual differentiation, especially in installations where colour coding is required for cable identification.
Installation and Mounting
Installation is performed by sliding the heat shrink tube over the cable or connection to be protected. The tube is then heated using a hot air blower or heat shrink tool, causing it to shrink and tightly conform to the cable. Even shrinking is achieved when heat is evenly distributed. The white colour remains intact during the shrinking process and ensures a uniform visual appearance. The 50-metre reel enables continuous processing, reducing working time.
Operational Advantages
The Pliofine B-EX 1270 heat shrink tube provides reliable mechanical and electrical insulation. The white colour supports visual identification and simplifies maintenance and inspection of cabling. The 2:1 shrink ratio ensures a tight fit, protecting the cable from mechanical stress and environmental influences. Packaging in 50-metre reels enables efficient use in larger projects, minimising material waste. The material quality ensures long service life and high reliability in application.
