Why Choose the Partex HS264EARTH(GRN/YEL) 2:1 Heat Shrink Tubing?
The Partex HS264EARTH(GRN/YEL) is a practical and reliable 2:1 heat shrink tubing designed for protective earth conductor identification, electrical insulation and cable sleeving in industrial and commercial electrical installations. Featuring the distinctive green/yellow colour combination associated with protective earthing, this tubing has a nominal supplied diameter of 6.4 mm and a nominal recovered diameter of 3.2 mm, making it suitable for identifying and protecting compatible earth conductors and electrical connections.
As part of the Partex heat shrink tubing range, the HS264EARTH(GRN/YEL) provides a convenient solution for marking protective earth conductors in electrical control panels, distribution equipment and industrial wiring assemblies. When suitable heat is applied, the tubing contracts around the underlying conductor or cable insulation, creating a close-fitting sleeve that provides clear visual identification and a neat, professional finish.
Supplied in a convenient 75 m pack, this green/yellow heat shrink tubing is ideal for electrical panel builders, switchgear manufacturers, maintenance engineers and industrial installers. Its 2:1 shrink ratio provides installation flexibility, while the recognised green/yellow colour combination helps distinguish protective earth conductors from other wiring within electrical installations.

Reliable Protective Earth Conductor Identification and Insulation
Protective earth conductor identification is an important part of safe and clearly organised electrical installations. The Partex HS264EARTH(GRN/YEL) provides a convenient method of applying green/yellow identification to compatible conductors and cable assemblies. When suitable heat is applied, the tubing contracts around the underlying conductor, creating a close-fitting sleeve that remains positioned around the cable under normal installation conditions.
The green/yellow colour combination is reserved for protective conductor identification under applicable electrical wiring standards, helping electricians and maintenance personnel recognise earthing connections within control panels, distribution boards and industrial equipment. The tubing is intended for identification and sleeving purposes and does not itself provide an electrical earth connection. For reliable installation, select the correct tubing diameter, ensure the conductor is correctly terminated and follow the manufacturer's recommended heating procedure.
Typical Applications
- Protective earth conductor identification in electrical installations.
- Control panel earthing connections and wiring assemblies.
- Distribution board and switchgear protective conductor identification.
- Industrial machinery and equipment earthing systems.
- Cable harness assembly requiring green/yellow conductor marking.
- Electrical installation, maintenance and protective earth wiring repairs.
