PVC Heat-Shrink Tubing Material and construction Made from high-quality PVC shrink material. Thin-wall construction provides flexibility and a neat fit around components. Offers good electrical insulation, a soft feel, stable performance and fast shrinking. Key benefits — why you need it Reliable electrical insulation for batteries, capacitors and wired connections. Protects and tidies exposed components and joints while maintaining flexibility. Cost-effective solution with favourable electrical and mechanical properties for high-volume or general-purpose use. Fast shrinking saves assembly time and simplifies installation. Function and performance Provides an insulating and protective outer layer for cylindrical and irregular parts. Soft and compliant material adapts to contours while maintaining stable performance in normal use. Thin, economical material suitable for large runs or applications where a low-profile finish is desired. Compatibility and typical applications Ideal for insulating and sleeving batteries, electrolytic capacitors, inductors and similar electronic parts. Commonly used in manufacturing and repair of industrial equipment, toys, sports equipment, electronics and consumer goods. Frequently applied as an outer sheath on tubular objects such as curtain rods, shower curtain rods, clothing rails, mop and broom handles, tool shafts and telescopic poles. Also used on rechargeable battery cells, combination packaging and garden tool tubes or bracing members. Specific use scenarios 1) Battery pack assembly: Slide tubing over individual rechargeable cells and apply heat to quickly form a consistent insulating sleeve that improves safety and appearance. 2) Electronic component protection: Cover electrolytic capacitors or inductors on printed circuit assemblies to prevent accidental shorts and provide mechanical support. 3) Tool and household fittings: Recoat or sleeve metal rods and handles (curtain rods, mop/broom handles, telescopic poles) to improve grip, hide wear and protect the underlying surface. Why choose PVC shrink tubing Simple to install, economical, and versatile for a wide range of electrical and mechanical applications. Thin-wall PVC balances cost and function for general-purpose insulation and outer sheathing needs.
