The Pliofine B-EX-03 150 spool natural from Ses-Sterling is a shrink tube designed for use in the field of electrical and IT installation. It serves for mechanical and electrical insulation of cables, lines, and connections, particularly in applications where high resistance to mechanical stress, moisture, or chemical influences is required. The shrink tube is supplied on a spool with a length of 150 meters and is available in the natural color, making it suitable for applications where an inconspicuous or natural appearance is desired.
Shrink tube
The shrink tube B-EX-03 150 is a thermoplastic shrink tube that shrinks to approximately one-third of its original diameter when heated to around 100 °C to 120 °C. This
3:1 shrink ratio enables a tight fit around cables and lines, achieving reliable mechanical stabilization and electrical insulation. The shrinkage occurs evenly and without cracks, ensuring a tight and durable seal.
Applications
The shrink tube is suitable for use in electrical installation, IT infrastructure, and industrial automation. It can be used for insulating cable connections, marking lines, protecting connectors, or sealing cable entries. The natural color allows for inconspicuous integration into existing installations, especially in environments where visual harmony with other components is important.
Technology explained simply
The shrink tube is slipped over the line to be protected and then heated using a hot air blower or a special shrinking device. Upon reaching the shrinking temperature, the tube contracts and conforms closely to the line. The shrinking process is enabled by the thermoplastic properties of the material, which softens when heated and then adapts under pressure or shaping. The 3:1 shrink ratio means the tube shrinks to approximately one-third of its original diameter when fully shrunk, allowing high flexibility in selecting the appropriate tube size.
Compatibility and accessories
The shrink tube is compatible with standard cables and lines in the field of electrical and IT technology. It can be processed using various tools such as hot air blowers or special shrinking devices. The use of shrink tubes requires no additional materials such as adhesives or glands, as the shrinking process itself creates a secure connection.
Installation and mounting
Installation is carried out by simply sliding the shrink tube over the line to be protected and then heating it with a hot air blower. Heating should be even to ensure uniform shrinking. The recommended temperature is between 100 °C and 120 °C. After shrinking, the tube remains tightly fitted to the line, providing durable insulation.
Operational advantages
The shrink tube provides reliable and durable insulation that resists mechanical stress, moisture, and chemical influences. The even shrinking ensures a tight fit, leaving no gaps or loose areas. The natural color allows for inconspicuous integration into existing installations. Processing is simple and requires no additional materials, reducing installation time and improving work quality. The spool with 150 meters of length offers high cost-efficiency for larger projects.
Weight and packaging
The spool has a total length of 150 meters and weighs 0.57 kg in total. The weight per meter is 3.8 g, indicating lightweight and easy handling. The spool is suitable for use in workshops, installation sites, and industrial environments.
