This tubing is compatible with any standard heat gun. Set your heat gun to a low or medium setting (generally 150–200°C \/ 300–390°F at the nozzle) and move it evenly along the tubing to avoid hot spots. For φ0.6mm tubing, a precision nozzle attachment is recommended to focus heat on the small diameter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n      \u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003c\/details\u003e\n\n  \u003c\/div\u003e\n\n  \u003cdiv class=\"hdiy-cta\"\u003e\n    🛒 Select your color and length above, then add to cart — ships from our US warehouse.\n  \u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"HomeDIYer","offers":[{"title":"φ0.6mm \/ Black \/ 1 Metre","offer_id":52331122229522,"sku":"GYWXWGLBZSJ000001x1","price":1.35,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"φ0.6mm \/ White \/ 1 Metre","offer_id":52331122262290,"sku":"GYWXWGLBZSJ000002x1","price":1.7,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"φ0.6mm \/ Red \/ 1 Metre","offer_id":52331122295058,"sku":"GYWXWGLBZSJ000003x1","price":1.7,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"φ0.6mm \/ Green \/ 1 Metre","offer_id":52331122327826,"sku":"GYWXWGLBZSJ000004x1","price":1.7,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"φ0.6mm \/ Yellow \/ 1 Metre","offer_id":52331122360594,"sku":"GYWXWGLBZSJ000005x1","price":1.7,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"φ0.6mm \/ Blue \/ 1 Metre","offer_id":52331122393362,"sku":"GYWXWGLBZSJ000006x1","price":1.7,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"φ0.6mm \/ Transparent \/ 1 Metre","offer_id":52331122426130,"sku":"GYWXWGLBZSJ000007x1","price":1.7,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"φ0.6mm \/ Black \/ 2 Metre","offer_id":52331122458898,"sku":"GYWXWGLBZSJ000001x2","price":1.77,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"φ0.6mm \/ White \/ 2 Metre","offer_id":52331122491666,"sku":"GYWXWGLBZSJ000002x2","price":1.81,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"φ0.6mm \/ Red \/ 2 Metre","offer_id":52331122524434,"sku":"GYWXWGLBZSJ000003x2","price":1.81,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"φ0.6mm \/ Green \/ 2 Metre","offer_id":52331122557202,"sku":"GYWXWGLBZSJ000004x2","price":1.81,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"φ0.6mm \/ Yellow \/ 2 Metre","offer_id":52331122589970,"sku":"GYWXWGLBZSJ000005x2","price":1.81,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"φ0.6mm \/ Blue \/ 2 Metre","offer_id":52331122622738,"sku":"GYWXWGLBZSJ000006x2","price":1.81,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"φ0.6mm \/ Transparent \/ 2 Metre","offer_id":52331122655506,"sku":"GYWXWGLBZSJ000007x2","price":1.81,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"φ0.6mm \/ Black \/ 5 Metre","offer_id":52331122688274,"sku":"GYWXWGLBZSJ000001x5","price":2.03,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"φ0.6mm \/ White \/ 5 Metre","offer_id":52331122721042,"sku":"GYWXWGLBZSJ000002x5","price":2.12,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"φ0.6mm \/ Red \/ 5 Metre","offer_id":52331122753810,"sku":"GYWXWGLBZSJ000003x5","price":2.12,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"φ0.6mm \/ Green \/ 5 Metre","offer_id":52331122786578,"sku":"GYWXWGLBZSJ000004x5","price":2.12,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"φ0.6mm \/ Yellow \/ 5 Metre","offer_id":52331122819346,"sku":"GYWXWGLBZSJ000005x5","price":2.12,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"φ0.6mm \/ Blue \/ 5 Metre","offer_id":52331122852114,"sku":"GYWXWGLBZSJ000006x5","price":2.12,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"φ0.6mm \/ Transparent \/ 5 Metre","offer_id":52331122884882,"sku":"GYWXWGLBZSJ000007x5","price":2.12,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"φ0.6mm \/ Black \/ 10 Metre","offer_id":52331122917650,"sku":"GYWXWGLBZSJ000001x10","price":2.46,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"φ0.6mm \/ White \/ 10 Metre","offer_id":52331122950418,"sku":"GYWXWGLBZSJ000002x10","price":2.64,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"φ0.6mm \/ Red \/ 10 Metre","offer_id":52331122983186,"sku":"GYWXWGLBZSJ000003x10","price":2.64,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"φ0.6mm \/ Green \/ 10 Metre","offer_id":52331123015954,"sku":"GYWXWGLBZSJ000004x10","price":2.64,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"φ0.6mm \/ Yellow \/ 10 Metre","offer_id":52331123048722,"sku":"GYWXWGLBZSJ000005x10","price":2.64,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"φ0.6mm \/ Blue \/ 10 Metre","offer_id":52331123081490,"sku":"GYWXWGLBZSJ000006x10","price":2.64,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"φ0.6mm \/ Transparent \/ 10 Metre","offer_id":52331123114258,"sku":"GYWXWGLBZSJ000007x10","price":2.64,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0884\/8936\/1682\/files\/Picture1of8_c2bbf45c-6822-4cf2-ac48-6e84666556e3.jpg?v=1780996236","url":"https:\/\/homediyer.com\/de\/products\/heat-shrink-tubing-2-1-ratio-06mm-polyolefin-wire-sleeve","provider":"HomeDIYer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
