thermal shrinking sheaths
Frequently Asked Questions
- Measure the diameter of the cable or the maximum width of the object to be covered.
- Define shrink ratio
- Depending on the shrinkage ratio chosen, calculate the diameter of the suitable sheath.
- Cover the cable or the object to protect
- Proceed with the heat shrinkage of the sheath using hot air guns or tunnels.
- For shrinking the heat-shrinking sheath, use equipment made for this specific operation such as, for example, guns or hot air tunnels.
- Shrink the sheath starting at one end, the most critical, and then proceed slowly to the opposite end. This method avoids the formation of air bubbles between the inner wall of the heat shrink sleeve and the object it covers.
- In the event that the object to be covered is made of metal or a good heat conductor, it is advisable to preheat the object to avoid "cold zones", so as to allow a perfect and soft adaptation of the heat-shrinking sheath.
- In order to avoid overheating of the heat shrink sleeve, ensure a regular heat distribution. Excessive overheating of the material during the shrinking process can cause bubbling, discoloration and in some cases even breakage of the heat shrink sheath.
