Whether you're a hobbyist assembling 18650 packs for flashlights, an EV tinkerer rebuilding e-bike batteries, or a maker protecting wiring harnesses, a clean, snug wrap is the difference between a professional result and a safety risk. This PVC heat shrink tubing with a 170mm flat width is sized specifically for large-diameter battery assemblies and heavy-gauge cable bundles.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eEach order is a continuous length of PVC heat shrink tubing — available in 1m (≈39\"), 2m (≈79\"), 3m (≈118\"), 5m (≈197\"), 8m (≈315\"), and 10m (≈394\") cuts — in five colors: Black, Blue, Transparent, Silver Grey, and Fruit Green. The 170mm flat width expands to accept objects up to approximately 108mm (≈4.25\") in diameter before shrinking down to a firm, conforming sleeve. Material is flexible PVC with good dielectric insulation properties.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eTypical applications include wrapping multi-cell 18650 lithium battery packs for e-bikes and power tools, sleeving LiPo battery assemblies for RC vehicles, insulating large wire harnesses in automotive and marine builds, and protecting cylindrical components in industrial DIY projects — all scenarios where a secure, color-coded battery wrap sleeve adds both safety and a finished appearance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003c\/div\u003e\n\n  \u003c!-- ② COMPATIBILITY BAR --\u003e\n  \u003cdiv class=\"hdiy-compat\"\u003e\n    \u003cspan class=\"hdiy-compat-icon\"\u003e🔋\u003c\/span\u003e\n    \u003cstrong\u003eCompatibility:\u003c\/strong\u003e Fits cylindrical battery packs and objects up to approximately 108mm (≈4.25\") in diameter.
