General
Colour	Orange

The shrink tube Pliofine B-EX 320 Box (10m) orange from Ses-Sterling is a professional protective material for cables and wiring in the field of electrical and IT installation. It serves mechanical and electrical insulation as well as protection against environmental influences such as dust, moisture, or mechanical stress. The packaging contains 10 meters of shrink tube in the color Orange, packed in a box with a weight of 190 g. The shrink tube is suitable for use in industrial and technical installations where reliable and durable insulation is required.

Applications

The shrink tube Pliofine B-EX 320 is particularly used in electrical installation, machine building, automation technology, and industrial communication technology. It protects cable bundles, wire connections, plug connections, and other sensitive electrical components from external influences. The orange color enables easy visual identification in cable management, which is helpful during maintenance and inspection of installations. Use in industry often requires high mechanical strength and resistance to chemical or thermal stress, for which this shrink tube is designed.

Functions and Equipment in Detail

The shrink tube has a shrink ratio of 2:1, meaning that it reduces to half its original outer diameter when heated. This ensures a tight and form-stable fit around the cables or wires to be protected. The shrink ratio 2:1 is a standard value for many industrial applications, as it provides sufficient flexibility during installation while ensuring a dense coverage. The color Orange is clearly visible and serves as a visual identifier, especially in complex cable bundles or for distinguishing different wire functions.

Technology Explained Simply

The shrink tube is made of a thermoplastic material that shrinks when heated and tightly conforms to the underlying cable. The heat can be generated using a hot air gun or a special shrink tool. Shrinking occurs through thermal activation of the polymer structure, causing the tube to contract and form a tight, form-stable sleeve. The orange color remains visible even after shrinking and thus serves as a permanent identifier. The application typically requires no additional adhesives, as the shrink ratio 2:1 already ensures sufficient fit.

Compatibility and Accessories

The shrink tube is compatible with a wide range of cable types and wiring, especially in industrial electrical and IT technology. It can be combined with other shrink tubes from the same product series to meet different diameters or insulation requirements. The packaging contains only the shrink tube with a length of 10 meters.

Installation and Mounting

Installation is done by sliding the shrink tube onto the cable or wire to be protected. It is then heated using a hot air gun or a shrink tool, causing it to contract and form a tight sleeve. The temperature and duration of heating must be chosen so that the shrink tube shrinks evenly without burning or deforming. Installation requires no additional tools or adhesives, as the shrink ratio 2:1 ensures sufficient fit. The orange color remains visible after shrinking and serves as a visual identifier.

Advantages in Operation

The shrink tube Pliofine B-EX 320 provides reliable and durable insulation that resists mechanical stress, moisture, and dust. The orange color facilitates identification and maintenance of cable bundles, especially in complex installations. The shrink ratio 2:1 ensures a tight fit, enabling secure and form-stable coverage. The application is simple and requires no additional materials, reducing installation time and improving workflow efficiency. The packaging in a box with 10 meters length offers a practical quantity for typical installations.
