RS PRO Flexible Polyolefin Heat Shrink Tubing, Black, 2.4 mm Sleeve Diameter x 1.2 m Length, 2:1 Shrink Ratio, Flame 398-212

RS PRO model 398-212 is a flexible polyolefin heat shrink tubing designed to provide optimal insulation and protection for cable joints and electronic connections. With a sleeve diameter of 2.4 mm and length of 1.2 m, this tubing satisfies varied requirements in industrial and commercial applications.

The tubing features a 2:1 shrink ratio, allowing it to reduce its diameter by half when heated, offering reliable coverage around wiring and terminals. Its flame retardant polyolefin construction ensures safety and long-term durability while maintaining high flexibility for easy installation, even in confined spaces.

Typical use cases include electrical insulation for resistors, capacitors, and splices, environmental shielding against moisture, dust, and chemicals, and mechanical protection from abrasion. The tubing also provides strain relief on cable and connector joints, minimizing risk from flexing or bending. It is suitable for military, aerospace, automotive, industrial machinery, electronics, and construction applications.

The RS PRO 398-212 is engineered to resist common fluids and solvents, maintain insulation properties, and function efficiently within a wide operating temperature range (-55°C to +135°C, up to 200°C short-term). It meets rigorous standards such as BS3G 198, CSA C22.2, IEC 60684, MIL SAE-AMS-DTL 23053/5, RoHS, UL VW-1, and VG 95343, making it compliant with global safety and quality requirements.

Industrial sectors benefit from this tubing's reliable performance in bundling wires, protecting delicate electrical components, and ensuring organized cable management. Its black color is commonly used for cable identification and adds a professional finish to installations.
