Why Choose the Partex ECHS295BLACK 2:1 Black Heat Shrink Tubing?
The Partex ECHS295BLACK is a versatile and reliable black heat shrink tubing designed for electrical insulation, cable protection, wire identification and cable management applications. Featuring a 2:1 shrink ratio and a nominal diameter of 9.5 mm before shrinking and 4.7 mm after shrinking, this tubing provides a practical solution for protecting electrical conductors, cable connections and wiring assemblies in industrial and commercial installations.
As part of the Partex ECHS heat shrink tubing range, the ECHS295BLACK is designed to contract when heat is applied, forming a close-fitting protective sleeve around compatible cables and components. Its black finish provides a neat, professional appearance and is suitable for general-purpose cable insulation and protection where colour-coded identification is not required.
Supplied in a convenient 75 m pack, the ECHS295BLACK is ideal for electrical contractors, control panel manufacturers, maintenance engineers and OEM equipment builders requiring a practical supply of heat shrink sleeving. The 9.5 mm supplied diameter and 4.7 mm recovered diameter make it suitable for a range of compatible cable sizes, electrical connections and wiring protection tasks.

Reliable Cable Protection for Industrial Electrical Systems
Heat shrink tubing is widely used in electrical engineering to provide additional insulation and protection around compatible conductors, cable joints and wiring components. When heated evenly, the tubing contracts around the underlying cable or component, creating a close-fitting sleeve that helps protect wiring against abrasion and everyday mechanical handling.
The Partex ECHS295BLACK combines a practical 2:1 shrink ratio with a versatile black finish, making it suitable for electrical control cabinets, industrial machinery, automation equipment and general wiring installations. The tubing should be selected according to the dimensions of the cable or component being covered, ensuring sufficient clearance before shrinking and an appropriate recovered diameter for a secure fit.
For control panel builders, electrical contractors and maintenance engineers, the 75 m pack provides a convenient supply for repeated cable protection tasks. The tubing can be cut into shorter sections to suit individual wiring assemblies, helping maintain consistent insulation coverage and a professional finish throughout electrical installations.
Typical Applications
- Electrical cable insulation and additional wire protection.
- Protection of suitable cable joints and electrical connections.
- Industrial control panel and switchgear wiring.
- Automation equipment and machinery cable installations.
- Electrical distribution boards and control cabinet assemblies.
- Cable harness manufacturing and wire organisation.
- Electrical maintenance, servicing and wiring repairs.
- OEM equipment manufacturing and industrial panel building.
