Lightweight Wall 2:1 Fractional 4:1 Shrink Ratio  
     
 
  Fluoropolymer PTFE is used in applications of extreme electrical, thermal, and chemical environments. Very lubricious, chemically resistant and inert. Excellent dielectric insulating properties. The extreme chemical inertness of PTFE heat shrink tubing combined with its high temperature resistance makes it an ideal product for use as a strain relief, fiber optic splice cover and whenever an inert, high temperature shrink tubing is required.  
     
  Heat shrinkable PTFE tubing requires approximately 650°F +/- 25°F (340°C +/- 5°C) to recover. PTFE begins to shrink at 650°F (340°C) and completes its recovery during the cooling cycle. The mandrel being covered must be able to withstand this range of temperature. We recommend preheating large-diameter mandrels and giving sufficient time for recovery. Even heating and cooling of all sides will provide the best results.  
     
  PTFE heat shrink tubing conforms to SAE-AMS-DTL-23053/12
AMS 3585 thin wall and AMS 3586 Standard wall
