Heat Shrink Tubings RKT Series Features: High temperature and fluid resistant, extra tough, semi-rigid heat-shrinkable tubing Excellent chemical resistance, excellent abrasion resistance, 2:1 shrink ratio It is an extremely tough, high temperature, thin wall insulation tubing. This transparent non-burning, semi-rigid tubing has superior resistance to most industrial fuels, solvents and chemicals. Designed for applications requiring strain relief at temperatures up to 175C, this product is unusually tough in its resistance to abrasion and cut-through. Typical applications include high temperature applications, protection, strain relief, chemical resistance, mechanical and abrasion protection.
