1mm Heat Shrink Tubing — Reliable Wire Insulation for Fine-Gauge Connections
Working with ultra-fine wires — sensor leads, earphone cables, PCB jumpers, or model wiring — means standard tubing is simply too bulky. A loose sleeve that won't grip, a bare solder joint that shorts against a neighboring trace, or color-coded wires that look identical after repair: these are the everyday frustrations that the right 1mm heat shrink tubing solves cleanly and permanently.
Each pack contains 5, 10, or 15 pieces of heat shrink tubing with a nominal inner diameter of 1mm (≈3/64") before shrinking. The standard variants are made from flexible polyolefin with a 2:1 shrink ratio, recovering to approximately 0.5mm (≈1/50") when fully heated. A Transparent-PTFE option is also available for high-temperature and chemically demanding applications. Colors include Black, White, Red, Green, Yellow, Blue, Transparent, Purple, Gray, Yellow-green, Bright Black, and Transparent-PTFE — available in multiple pack sizes.
Typical use cases include insulating fine-gauge wire splices in consumer electronics repair, color-coding sensor and signal wires in Arduino or Raspberry Pi builds, protecting delicate solder joints on earphone and microphone cables, and bundling or strain-relieving leads on RC models and drones. The PTFE variant is well suited for RF coax terminations and laboratory instrument wiring where chemical resistance and low dielectric loss matter.
