Our 3:1 heat shrink tubing is an effective way to professionally finish the ends of a wire harness. The over-expanded product configuration easily fits over the end of a connector, and shrinks down to 33% of its original diameter to fit snugly over the wires. With our wide assortment of bright colors, now you can attractively color coordinate the ends of our expandable braided sleeving. Our tubing is available in rolls or by the foot.

3:1 Heat Shrink is ROHS (Restriction of Hazardous Substances) Compliant

Adhesive Lined Tubing

Our 3:1 heat shrink tubing is also available with a "dual-wall" construction. During application, the inner layer melts and flows, creating an adhesion layer to ensure a snug fit to your harness and/or connector.
It is recommended for applications that require a water-tight seal to protect wire, cable and connector components.
It can also be used for color coding, such as on industrial batteries where red & black are used as a protective strain relief and to identify the positive (red) connection or negative (black) connection.

 

 

LG heat shrinkable and non-shrinkable tubing products do not contain the compound Di (2-ethylhexyl) phthalate commonly referred to as DEHP.

In addition, LG heat shrinkable and non-shrinkable tubing products do not contain PFOS (perfluoroctane sulfonate), PFOA (perfluorocanoic acid) or Tinuvin 320.

3:1 Heat Shrink - PER FOOT

Please Note: Our Diameters for Heat Shrink Tubing are measured as ROUND TUBE, NOT FLAT
Due to the nature of the materials, all braided sleeving, wire loom, heat shrink, and spiral wrap products sold by the foot will not be refunded IN FULL if they are cut up in sections of 20' or shorter. 50% restocking fee on returns of 20 feet or less. 25% restocking fee if there is a reorder.

Limiting Oxygen Index (LOI)
The ratio of how much oxygen - as compared to other gases - needs to be present in the air surrounding a particular material in order for that material to burn. The fact that Earth's normal atmospheric air contains around 21% oxygen is used a reference point when materials are classified into burn categories that are based on Limiting Oxygen Index. Substances that are combustible in air containing less than 21% oxygen are considered flammable, while those that burn in the range of anything greater than 21% but less than 28% are typically labeled "slow burning". Any material with an LOI that exceeds 28% is classified as self-extinguishing.

In the table below, you'll find a list of polymers commonly found in our heat shrink tubing and braided sleeving products, along with their LOIs and the burn categories each falls into.
