In place of asterisk* substitute length of tubing to be ordered. For example, SST*-11, as the second column indicates, comes
in 48-inch lengths, so a 48-inch cut piece of SST tubing would be SST 48-11.
Wall thickness will be less if tubing recovery is restricted during shrinkage.
**30-inch length standard for /226 coating only.
Ordering Information Color Standard Black
Nonstandard White, Red, Yellow and Clear (Clear is non-flame-retardant)
Size selection Always order the largest size that will shrink snugly over the component to be covered.
Special order sizes are available upon request.
