Protect and Organize Your Wires With Heat Shrink Tubing
Not only do damaged wires lead to power interruptions, but they can also pose serious safety hazards. With heat shrink tubing, you can create a protective layer against abrasion, moisture and cuts to your wiring. Shrink tube is also useful for bundling wires in an electrical installation, while color-coded varieties help keep wires and cables — such as for audiovisual equipment — organized.
Shop Lowe’s for heat shrink tubing in an assortment of lengths, inside diameters (ID) and shrink ratios. A 2:1 shrink ratio means the tubing will shrink to half its diameter when the proper heat is applied. We also carry 3:1 and 4:1 ratios. Thick-walled shrink tube offers more complete insulation and protection for higher impact conditions and for direct burial outdoors — for instance, to bring power from a utility transformer to an individual home.
Choose from our stock of black tubing or opt for an assortment of colors like red, blue and yellow to organize your wiring. Clear heat shrink tubing allows for easier viewing of your connections. If you haven't yet purchased a heat gun to properly install your shrink tube, you can find a wide selection here at Lowe's.
