Why Choose the Partex ECHS2127GREEN 2:1 Heat Shrink Tubing?
The Partex ECHS2127GREEN is a versatile 2:1 heat shrink tubing designed for electrical insulation, cable protection and wire identification in industrial, commercial and electrical engineering applications. Supplied in a distinctive green finish, this heat shrink sleeving provides a practical solution for protecting electrical conductors, insulating connections and organising cable assemblies.
Featuring a nominal supplied internal diameter of 12.7 mm and a fully recovered internal diameter of 6.3 mm, the ECHS2127GREEN offers an approximately 2:1 shrink ratio. When suitable heat is applied, the tubing contracts around appropriately sized cables, conductors and electrical components, forming a close-fitting protective sleeve that supports electrical insulation and mechanical protection.
Supplied in a convenient 50 m pack, the Partex ECHS2127GREEN is well suited to electrical panel builders, wiring harness manufacturers, maintenance engineers and industrial production environments. Its green colour supports visual cable identification and colour-coded wiring systems, while the cut-to-length format makes it suitable for individual electrical repairs and repeated manufacturing applications.

Reliable Electrical Insulation and Cable Protection
Heat shrink tubing provides a convenient method of insulating electrical conductors, covering cable joints and protecting wiring assemblies. The Partex ECHS2127GREEN 2:1 heat shrink tubing contracts when suitable heat is applied, allowing the sleeve to conform closely to appropriately sized cables and electrical components. This helps create a neat, organised installation while providing an additional protective layer against everyday mechanical wear.
The 12.7/6.3 mm diameter configuration makes this tubing suitable for a range of compatible electrical cables, insulated connections, wiring harnesses and cable assemblies. Its green finish is useful where green sleeving is specified as part of a cable identification scheme. For effective installation, ensure the tubing fits over the cable or component before heating and has sufficient recovery to grip it securely. Apply heat evenly using a suitable controlled heat source and follow the manufacturer's installation guidance. Where conductor identification is regulated, use the colour only in accordance with applicable wiring standards; green sleeving alone should not be assumed to provide compliant protective earth identification.
