Why Choose the Partex HSMB24YELLOW Heat Shrink Tubing?
The Partex HSMB24YELLOW is a versatile yellow 2:1 heat shrink tubing designed for electrical insulation, wire identification and protective sleeving in industrial, commercial and general electrical installations. Supplied in a convenient 15 m pack, this compact tubing provides a practical solution for protecting small electrical wires, cable connections and wiring assemblies.
Featuring a nominal supplied internal diameter of 2.4 mm and a nominal recovered internal diameter of 1.2 mm, the tubing contracts when suitable heat is applied to form a close-fitting protective sleeve around compatible conductors and components. Its 2:1 shrink ratio allows the diameter to reduce to approximately half its original size, making it suitable for small cable insulation, wiring protection and conductor identification applications.
The distinctive yellow colour supports visual wire identification, colour-coded cable management and organised electrical installations. As part of the Partex HSMB heat shrink tubing range, the HSMB24YELLOW is a practical choice for electrical contractors, electronics technicians, panel builders and maintenance engineers requiring professional protective sleeving.

Reliable Electrical Insulation and Colour-Coded Cable Identification
Heat shrink tubing provides a convenient method of insulating, identifying and protecting electrical conductors. When suitable heat is applied, the tubing contracts around the underlying wire or component, forming a close-fitting protective sleeve that helps reduce exposure to abrasion and general mechanical wear.
The Partex HSMB24YELLOW is particularly useful for wiring applications requiring a 2.4 mm nominal supplied internal diameter. Its 2:1 shrink ratio allows the tubing to recover towards a nominal internal diameter of 1.2 mm, making it a practical choice for compatible small wires, cable joints and electrical assemblies.
The yellow finish provides a clear visual distinction within organised wiring systems and can support project-specific identification schemes, circuit grouping and cable management. Solid yellow sleeving should not be treated as equivalent to the green-and-yellow identification reserved for protective conductors under applicable electrical standards. Correct conductor identification must always follow the requirements of the installation.
Typical Applications
- Small electrical wire insulation and protective sleeving.
- Electrical connections and compatible wire joints.
- Electronics wiring and component assemblies.
- Industrial control panels and automation equipment.
- Yellow colour-coded wire and cable identification.
- Wiring harnesses and cable assemblies.
- Electrical maintenance, workshop repairs and cable preparation.
- General cable management and protective wiring applications.
