Why Choose the Partex HS2762RED 2:1 Heat Shrink Tubing?
The Partex HS2762RED is a versatile 2:1 heat shrink tubing designed for electrical insulation, cable protection and conductor identification in industrial and commercial electrical installations. Featuring a distinctive red finish, this tubing has a nominal supplied diameter of 76.2 mm and a nominal recovered diameter of 38.1 mm, making it suitable for appropriately sized larger electrical cables, cable assemblies and wiring connections.
As part of the Partex heat shrink tubing range, the HS2762RED provides a practical solution for protecting and organising electrical wiring. When suitable heat is applied, the tubing contracts around the underlying cable or component, forming a close-fitting protective sleeve that supports electrical insulation and provides a neat, professional finish. Its red colour also enables visual cable differentiation within appropriately designed electrical identification systems.
Supplied in a convenient 15 m pack, the HS2762RED is suitable for electrical panel builders, cable harness manufacturers, maintenance engineers and industrial installers. Its 2:1 shrink ratio provides installation flexibility, while the 76.2/38.1 mm diameter specification makes it particularly useful for larger cable sleeving applications requiring protective insulation and clearly organised wiring.

Reliable Large-Diameter Cable Insulation and Protection
Heat shrink tubing provides a convenient method of insulating and protecting electrical cables, conductor assemblies and wiring connections. The Partex HS2762RED contracts when suitable heat is applied, allowing it to conform to compatible cable diameters and create a neat protective covering. Its 2:1 shrink ratio enables substantial diameter reduction, with a specified nominal recovered diameter of 38.1 mm. The larger supplied diameter of 76.2 mm makes it particularly useful for applications involving substantial cable diameters or components that require additional clearance during installation.
The red finish makes this tubing useful for electrical installations where visual identification, colour coding and consistent cable management are important. It can be incorporated into an appropriate conductor identification system, provided the chosen colour complies with applicable electrical installation requirements. For effective results, select tubing with a supplied diameter large enough to pass over the cable or component and a recovered diameter suitable for a close fit. Follow the manufacturer's recommended heating procedure and confirm suitability for the electrical and environmental conditions of the application.
