Why Choose the Partex PHZ20064BN4 Halogen-Free Printable Heat Shrink Tubing?
The Partex PHZ20064BN4 is a professional yellow, halogen-free printable heat shrink tubing supplied on a bulk reel containing 1 × 150 m of continuous sleeving. Designed for electrical wire and cable identification, this flexible polyolefin tubing enables installers to produce customised, durable identification sleeves for control panels, industrial machinery, automation equipment and electrical distribution systems.
Part of the Partex PHZ printable heat shrink range, the PHZ20064BN4 features a 2:1 shrink ratio, reducing from a nominal internal diameter of 6.4 mm to 3.2 mm after full recovery. Its circular profile is designed for thermal transfer printing using compatible Partex marking equipment, allowing wire numbers, circuit references and other identification information to be printed before cutting and installation.
Manufactured from flexible, cross-linked, halogen-free polyolefin, the tubing combines low-smoke characteristics with flame resistance and suitability for demanding electrical identification applications. The 150 m bulk reel is particularly convenient for panel manufacturers and high-volume cable marking operations where continuous material supply helps reduce interruptions during production.

Efficient High-Volume Cable Identification with Printable Heat Shrink
The Partex PHZ20064BN4 provides a practical method of creating customised wire and cable identification sleeves directly from a continuous reel. Using suitable thermal transfer printing equipment, installers can print the required wire numbers, terminal references and circuit identification information onto the yellow tubing. The printed material can then be cut to length and positioned over compatible insulated conductors before termination.
When heat is applied evenly using suitable equipment, the tubing contracts around the cable insulation to produce a close-fitting identification sleeve. Its 6.4 mm to 3.2 mm recovery range, halogen-free construction and 150 m bulk reel make it particularly suitable for repetitive cable marking operations in industrial panel production, machinery assembly and electrical maintenance.
Typical Applications
- Electrical control panel wire and conductor identification.
- PLC and industrial automation cable marking.
- Switchgear and electrical distribution equipment assembly.
- Machinery wiring and industrial equipment manufacturing.
- OEM cable harness production and electrical assembly.
- High-volume printing of customised heat shrink identification sleeves.
- Commercial and industrial electrical installations.
- Maintenance and replacement of existing cable identification markers.
- Alphanumeric wire numbering, terminal references and circuit identification.
