Ses-Sterling 07390210002 Pliofine B-EX 160 Box (11m) blue shrink tube 2:1 content_copy

The shrink tube Pliofine B-EX 160 Box (11m) from Ses-Sterling is a professional protective material for cables and wires in the field of electrical and IT installations. It serves for mechanical and electrical insulation as well as protection against environmental influences such as dust, moisture, or mechanical stress. The packaging contains 11 metres of the blue shrink tube, delivered in a box. The blue colour serves for visual identification and facilitates recognition during use, especially in complex cabling systems.

Applications

The shrink tube is designed for use in installations where reliable insulation and protective function for cables and wires are required. It is particularly suitable for applications indoors, where mechanical stress, moisture, or dust play a role. Usage examples include shielding cables in electrical installations, cabling of IT systems, or in industrial electronics. The length of 11 metres enables efficient processing in larger projects, while the box packaging facilitates transport and storage.

Functions and Equipment in Detail

The shrink tube features a shrink ratio of 2:1, meaning it reduces to half its original outer diameter when heated. This ensures a tight fit around the cables or wires to be protected, achieving a dense and secure covering. The blue colour is not only visually identifiable but also serves as a marking for specific applications or cable types, simplifying maintenance and identification within the system. The packaging is in box form, protecting the shrink tube from damage and enabling orderly storage.

Technology Explained Simply

The shrink tube is made of a thermoplastic material that shrinks when heated and conforms to the shape of the underlying cables or wires. Shrinking occurs by applying heat, for example, using a heat gun or a heat lamp. The shrink ratio of 2:1 means the tube shrinks to approximately half its original diameter when heated, creating a tight and dense covering. This ensures effective protection against mechanical stress, moisture, and dust. The blue colour is a visual feature that aids in distinguishing between different cables or types of protective tubing during installation.

Compatibility and Accessories

The shrink tube is designed for use with cables and wires whose diameter falls within the shrink range. The exact fit results from the 2:1 shrink ratio, ensuring a tight adaptation to the wires to be protected.

Installation and Mounting

Installation is performed by sliding the shrink tube over the cables or wires to be protected. It is then heated, causing it to shrink and form a tight fit. The heat source can be a heat gun or a heat lamp. Processing does not require special tools, but even heat application is important to ensure uniform shrinking. The box packaging facilitates removal and storage of the shrink tube.

Operational Advantages

The shrink tube provides a reliable and dense covering for cables and wires, reducing mechanical damage, moisture ingress, or dust exposure. The blue colour simplifies identification and marking within the system, making maintenance and inspection easier. The length of 11 metres in a box enables efficient processing in larger installations. Shrinking occurs through heat, creating a firm and permanent bond that cannot be undone once cooled.
