The CABAC XLP range of thin wall heat shrink tubing is used to insulate, protect and colour code conductors in a range of applications related to the electrical and associated industries. This general-purpose heat shrink provides electrical and mechanical protection, while also defending against environmental factors such as common fluids and/or solvents. Our blue thin wall heat shrink sleeving is flexible, flame retardant, and resistant to impact, abrasion and UV radiation. The XLP range of heat shrink tubing is made from polyolefin that has been cross-linked using high-energy electron beam technology. Upon the application of heat, the tubing will shrink down to approximately 50% of its pre-shrink diameter to deliver tight-fitting electrical and environmental insulation. To shrink our heat shrink tubing, we recommend the use of a CABAC heat gun (Part No. HG2232 or HG2233). CABAC blue polyolefin heat shrink tubing is UL certified and complies with a number of international standards, including ASTM D2671.
Pre-shrink diameter: 3.2mm After-shrink diameter: 1.6mm Recovered wall thickness: 0.48mm Length: 10m box XLP tubing is available in a wide range of colours and sizes from 1.5mm to 125mm. The product datasheet includes a selection chart for your reference, see Resources.
Compliant Standards: UL224 VW1 File No. E366157, ASTM D2671 Continuous Operating Temp: -75 to 135 degrees Celsius Shrinkage Temp: > 105 degrees Celsius Longitudinal Shrinkage < 5% Tensile Strength: 10.4 MPa Breakdown Voltage: 25 kV/mm wall thickness Elongation at Break Point: 400% Water Absorption: 0.15% max Voltage Rating: 600V Heat Shock: 250 degrees for 4 hours PLEASE NOTE: The full range of XLP heatshrink is UV stabilised except clear. Non-black colour variants will fade slightly or change colour over time dependent upon the strength of the UV radiation without impacting the materials functional characteristics.
