Cabac HEATSHRINK THIN WALL 12.7MM BLACK 5M BOX XLP13BK-5M

Description

Heat Shrink Electrical Insulation & Protection

CABAC XLP thin wall heat shrink tubing provides reliable insulation and mechanical protection for electrical conductors across residential, commercial, and industrial installations. Made from electron beam cross-linked polyolefin, it delivers consistent shrink performance, tight fit, and durable insulation for professional trade use.

Cross-linked polyolefin construction enhances dimensional stability and ensures minimal longitudinal shrinkage, helping maintain neat, professional finishes in panel builds and cable terminations. Its thin wall design allows faster shrink times and greater flexibility, making it ideal for high-volume electrical work where efficiency and consistency are critical.

Performance in Harsh Environments

Engineered for demanding environments, the tubing resists UV exposure, abrasion, common fluids, and solvents, making it suitable for exposed wiring and harsh site conditions. With a wide operating temperature range from -75°C to +135°C, it maintains integrity under extreme heat or cold. Flame retardant properties enhance safety in critical installations.

UV stabilisation ensures long-term performance in outdoor applications, reducing degradation and maintaining insulation integrity over time. The tubing also offers strong resistance to impact and vibration, protecting conductors in moving equipment and exposed installations commonly found in construction and industrial sites.

Trade Ready Installation & Compliance

Designed for trade professionals, this 12.7mm heat shrink tubing reduces to approximately 50% of its original diameter when heated above 105°C, ensuring a secure and uniform fit. It is UL certified and compliant with ASTM standards, offering dependable performance for wiring, maintenance, and electrical installation projects.

This heat shrink tubing is suitable for cable colour coding, bundling, and strain relief applications, helping electricians maintain organised and compliant wiring systems. Its compatibility with standard heat guns ensures quick installation on site, reducing downtime and improving workflow efficiency.
