Why Choose the Partex PHZ20032BN4 Halogen-Free Printable Heat Shrink Tubing?
The Partex PHZ20032BN4 is a professional halogen-free printable heat shrink tubing designed for clear, durable and reliable identification of electrical wires and cables. Supplied as a 150 m bulk reel in a highly visible yellow colour, this continuous heat shrink profile is ideal for electrical contractors, control panel manufacturers, industrial automation engineers and cable harness production facilities requiring efficient, high-volume cable identification.
As part of the established Partex PHZ printable heat shrink series, the PHZ20032BN4 is manufactured from flexible, halogen-free, cross-linked polyolefin with excellent fire safety characteristics. Its printable surface supports customised identification using compatible thermal transfer printing equipment, allowing engineers to produce professional wire numbers, circuit references, terminal designations and other cable identification codes.
Featuring a 3.2 mm nominal internal diameter before shrinking, a 1.6 mm recovered diameter and a 2:1 shrink ratio, the PHZ20032BN4 provides a secure fit around suitably sized electrical wires when correctly heat-shrunk. The 150 m bulk reel format makes it particularly suitable for repetitive marking tasks, large electrical installation projects and automated cable identification workflows.

Reliable Halogen-Free Heat Shrink Identification for Industrial Wiring
Accurate cable identification is essential for efficient electrical installation, maintenance and fault tracing. The Partex PHZ20032BN4 provides a professional solution for producing customised identification sleeves that remain securely positioned on compatible wires after heat shrinking. Its yellow surface supports clear printed identification, helping engineers recognise conductor numbers, terminal references and circuit designations throughout electrical systems.
The Partex PHZ heat shrink marking system uses flexible, halogen-free polyolefin tubing designed for on-site and workshop printing. The required identification is printed onto the tubing using compatible thermal transfer equipment, after which individual markers can be cut to length and installed over the cable before termination. Controlled heating causes the tubing to contract around the cable insulation, helping provide a secure and durable identification sleeve.
The 150 m bulk reel is particularly beneficial for control panel manufacturers, OEM machine builders and cable harness production facilities that require large quantities of consistently printed markers. The continuous reel allows identification sleeves to be produced in different lengths according to the number of characters required. Its halogen-free construction also makes the PHZ20032BN4 suitable for applications where low-smoke and reduced acid-gas emission characteristics are important considerations.
