Electricians, automotive technicians, marine riggers, and serious DIYers all run into the same problem: standard tubing is too small, and oversized options are hard to find in useful lengths. This black 2:1 heat shrink tubing is stocked in diameters from 30mm to 150mm — covering the sizes that most hardware stores simply don't carry.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eEach unit is sold as 1 meter of tubing.

Made from polyolefin, a material known for its flexibility, chemical resistance, and consistent shrink performance. The 2:1 ratio means each tube shrinks to approximately half its listed diameter when heat is applied.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eTypical applications include automotive wiring harness repair and protection, electrical panel cable management and bundling, marine and RV wiring insulation, battery cable and terminal protection, and industrial conduit sleeving for large-gauge wire runs.
