DIYers, hobbyists, and repair technicians all face the same frustration: tubing that's too stiff, too thick, or simply the wrong diameter. This green PVC heat shrink tubing is stocked in a wide range of flat widths so you can grab exactly what your project needs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eEach listing covers a single flat width of green PVC heat shrink tubing, available in packing lengths of 1 m (≈3.3\"), 2 m (≈6.6\"), 5 m (≈16.4\"), or 10 m (≈32.8\") — choose the quantity that matches your job. Flat widths range from 7mm (≈9\/32\") up to 195mm (≈7-11\/16\"), covering everything from thin wire bundles to large battery packs.

A \u003cstrong\u003e1 m or 2 m pack\u003c\/strong\u003e is ideal for single repairs or small jobs — for example, wrapping 3–5 individual battery cells. A \u003cstrong\u003e5 m or 10 m pack\u003c\/strong\u003e is more economical for larger battery pack builds, production runs, or keeping a supply on hand for ongoing DIY projects. The per-meter cost is generally lower in larger packs.\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 flat width and packing length above, then add to cart — ships from our US warehouse.\n  \u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"HomeDIYer","offers":[{"title":"Green \/ 7mm \/ 10 m","offer_id":52330411786514,"sku":"BEAR096189x10","price":5.14,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Green \/ 9mm \/ 10 m","offer_id":52330411819282,"sku":"BEAR096192x10","price":5.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Green \/ 12mm \/ 10 m","offer_id":52330411852050,"sku":"BEAR000959x10","price":6.35,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Green \/ 17mm \/ 10 m","offer_id":52330411884818,"sku":"BEAR000970x10","price":7.9,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Green \/ 23mm \/ 5 m","offer_id":52330411917586,"sku":"BEAR000981x5","price":5.83,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Green \/ 27mm \/ 5 m","offer_id":52330411950354,"sku":"BEAR000995x5","price":6.53,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Green \/ 29.5mm \/ 5 m","offer_id":52330411983122,"sku":"BEAR001004x5","price":7.04,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Green \/ 31mm \/ 5 m","offer_id":52330412015890,"sku":"BEAR001026x5","price":7.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Green \/ 40mm \/ 2 m","offer_id":52330412048658,"sku":"BEAR001042x2","price":5.14,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Green \/ 43mm \/ 2 m","offer_id":52330412081426,"sku":"BEAR001051x2","price":5.14,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Green \/ 55mm \/ 2 m","offer_id":52330412114194,"sku":"BEAR001078x2","price":6.17,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Green \/ 60mm \/ 2 m","offer_id":52330412146962,"sku":"BEAR001088x2","price":6.53,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Green \/ 66mm \/ 2 m","offer_id":52330412179730,"sku":"BEAR001096x2","price":6.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Green \/ 70mm \/ 1 m","offer_id":52330412212498,"sku":"BEAR001104x1","price":4.91,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Green \/ 75mm \/ 1 m","offer_id":52330412245266,"sku":"BEAR001111x1","price":4.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Green \/ 78mm \/ 1 m","offer_id":52330412278034,"sku":"BEAR001117x1","price":4.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Green \/ 80mm \/ 1 m","offer_id":52330412310802,"sku":"BEAR001120x1","price":5.09,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Green \/ 85mm \/ 1 m","offer_id":52330412343570,"sku":"BEAR001129x1","price":5.14,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Green \/ 103mm \/ 1 m","offer_id":52330412376338,"sku":"BEAR001148x1","price":5.66,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Green \/ 110mm \/ 1 m","offer_id":52330412409106,"sku":"BEAR001153x1","price":5.94,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Green \/ 120mm \/ 1 m","offer_id":52330412441874,"sku":"BEAR001162x1","price":6.69,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Green \/ 135mm \/ 1 m","offer_id":52330412474642,"sku":"BEAR001175x1","price":7.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Green \/ 160mm \/ 1 m","offer_id":52330412507410,"sku":"BEAR001198x1","price":8.87,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Green \/ 195mm \/ 1 m","offer_id":52330412540178,"sku":"BEAR001220x1","price":10.65,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0884\/8936\/1682\/files\/Picture1of2_b76c1406-2d69-4c06-a220-c8d596d768f8.jpg?v=1780829253","url":"https:\/\/homediyer.com\/de\/products\/pvc-heat-shrink-tubing-green-battery-wrap-sleeve","provider":"HomeDIYer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
