RS PRO Halogen Free Heat Shrink Tubing Brown 38.1 mm Sleeve Diameter x 1.2m Length 2:1 Ratio 537-8156

RS PRO 537-8156 Halogen Free Heat Shrink Tubing is designed to provide high-quality insulation and protection for electrical cables and connections. It features a brown polyolefin sleeve with a 38.1 mm expanded diameter that shrinks to 19.1 mm, providing a 2:1 shrink ratio over a length of 1.2 meters. This tubing is halogen-free and flame retardant, ensuring safety by minimizing toxic gas release and smoke generation in case of fire or overheating.

The flexible polyolefin material offers excellent durability, flexibility, and chemical resistance, with operating temperatures ranging from -55°C to +105°C. It shrinks radially when heated to a minimum of 115°C, creating a secure and permanent protective seal around cable joints, wire splices, and other in-line components such as disconnect terminals.

This tubing is highly suitable for industrial, commercial, and laboratory use, including environments where smoke and fire safety are paramount, such as hospitals, airports, submarines, and underground systems. Its compliance with standards including BS3G 198 Part 3 Type 15, DEF 59-97 Issue3 Type 8, IEC 60684-3-216 Type C, and RoHS provides assurance of quality and reliability.

Applications include electrical insulation, mechanical protection of cables, moisture sealing, and repair of worn or damaged cable insulation. The halogen-free nature makes it ideal for use in smoke-sensitive areas, improving overall safety in case of electrical faults.

Constructed from flexible, halogen-free polyolefin material ensuring safety and durability. Features excellent flame retardancy with reduced smoke and acid gas emission. Operates effectively across a wide temperature range from -55°C to +105°C.
