Ses-Sterling 07390031001 Pliofine B-EX 3200 (1.22 m) white shrink tube 2:1 content_copy

The Pliofine B-EX 3200 (1.22m) white shrink tube from Ses-Sterling is a professional protective material for cables, wiring, and electrical connections. It provides mechanical and electrical insulation as well as protection against environmental influences such as moisture, dust, or mechanical stress. The shrink tube is used in electrical and IT installations where reliable and durable coverage of cables and connections is required. It is available in a length of 1.22 metres and is delivered in single packaging.

Applications

The Pliofine B-EX 3200 shrink tube is suitable for use in industrial electrical installations, machine building, and building and plant cabling. It protects cables and wiring from external influences, particularly in environments with increased mechanical stress or humid atmospheres. Typical applications include covering cable connections, securing plug connectors, or insulating cable ends. The white colour ensures good visibility and is suitable for applications requiring clear optical identification.

Features and Equipment in Detail

The 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 or connection being protected. The material properties provide a dense covering that resists mechanical stress and environmental influences. The white colour is part of the product specification and serves both optical identification and adaptation to specific requirements in installation technology.

Technology Explained Simply

When heated with a hot air blower or another suitable heating device, the shrink tube contracts and tightly conforms to the underlying cable or connection. This process is enabled by the thermoplastic nature of the material. The shrinkage occurs evenly, creating a dense, airtight, and watertight covering. The use of shrink tubes is a standard practice in electrical and IT installations to extend the lifespan of connections and enhance safety.

Compatibility and Accessories

The Pliofine B-EX 3200 shrink tube is designed for use with cables and wiring whose diameter falls within the 2:1 shrink ratio. It is compatible with standard heating devices such as hot air blowers, which are required to activate the shrinking process. The use requires the presence of a heating device, which is not included in the product.

Installation and Mounting

Installation is performed by sliding the shrink tube over the cable or connection to be protected. It is then heated using a hot air blower or similar device, causing it to contract and form a tight fit. Heating must be applied evenly to ensure uniform shrinkage. The processing requires no additional tools or chemicals. The length of 1.22 metres allows for the processing of multiple connections or longer sections in a single work step.

Operational Advantages

The shrink tube provides a reliable, durable, and form-stable covering that enhances the electrical insulation and mechanical stability of the connection. The white colour facilitates visual inspection and identification. Its use results in improved safety and extended lifespan of installed cables and connections. The simple installation and universal applicability make it a standard product in electrical and IT installations.
