Product Description
Our tubing is crafted from premium Polyethylene Terephthalate (PET), renowned for its exceptional strength and resilience. This material ensures that the tubing maintains dimensional stability under heat exposure, providing a secure fit around various components for enhanced protection and longevity.
PET heat shrink tubing is a versatile and durable tubing that has a variety of medical applications. Our biocompatible PET material offers excellent resistance to abrasion, chemicals, UV radiation, ensuring reliable protection and longevity for medical equipment and devices.
This shrinkable tubing can be made to 0.00025in wall thickness, allowing superior flexibility, minimal footprint. Our shrink ratio of up to 1.6:1 allows encapsulation of irregular shapes and contours, making it a suitable choice for a wide range of applications.
Due to PET's high dielectric strength, this heat shrink can also act as an excellent insulator for electrical components and energy-generating medical devices.
Standard sizes available in stock from 7.29mm to 0.41mm.
