Heat Shrinkable Polyolefin Tubing
Grayline offers a variety of heat shrinkable polyolefin tubing products
designed to meet a wide range of temperature ratings and specifications
Polyolefin heat shrink tubing is made from a thermoplastic polymer (usually
polyethylene) which has been cross-linked either by electron beam radiation or
a chemical process. The cross-linking results in improved physical characteristics
such as higher operating temperatures. Since the polymer is not inherently flame
resistant like PVC, flame retardant additives are used to meet automotive and
appliance specifications.
Polyolefin heat shrinkable tubing is available in shrink ratios ranging from
2:1 to 4:1, allowing greater design flexibility. It can also be supplied with
a hot melt adhesive lining to provide an excellent environmental seal.
Black is the most common color for these products, but a limited range of
colors is available. In particular, GP-125 general purpose heat shrinkable
polyolefin tubing is available in custom-matched colors to suit your specific
requirements. GP-125 is also available in custom diameters and wall thicknesses.
