RNF-100 Flexible, flame-retardant, high performance, polyolefin heat-shrinkable tubing RNF-100 tubing is a high-quality, It is also UL-recognized and a higher level of performance at heat-shrinkable product for a wide CSA-certified at 125C, 600 V. elevated temperature, including variety of uses. It has become the mechanical abrasion and fluid industry standard for insulation, Made from flame-retardant polyolefin, resistance, than many heat-shrinkable strain relief, wire bundling, and RNF-100 tubing has excellent polyolefin tubings available in the color-coding in both commercial physical, chemical, and electrical marketplace today. and military applications. RNF-100 properties that meet industrial and tubing meets the requirements of military requirements for a highly Only a few sizes of RNF-100 AMS-DTL-23053/5, Class 1 (colors) reliable, general-purpose tubing. tubing are required to cover many and Class 2 (clear). It sets itself apart in that it offers substrate diameters.
