Why Choose the Partex ECHS232YELLOW 2:1 Yellow Heat Shrink Tubing?
The Partex ECHS232YELLOW is a versatile yellow 2:1 heat shrink tubing designed for electrical wire insulation, cable identification, conductor protection and professional wiring applications. Featuring a nominal supplied diameter of 3.2 mm and a nominal fully recovered diameter of 1.6 mm, this heat shrink sleeving provides a neat, close-fitting covering when correctly heated around suitably sized wires and components.
The 2:1 shrink ratio allows the tubing to recover to approximately half its original internal diameter when exposed to suitable heat. This enables the sleeving to conform around compatible electrical conductors, small cable joints and wiring assemblies, providing an additional insulating layer while helping protect covered wiring against abrasion and general handling wear.
Supplied in a generous 150 m pack, the ECHS232YELLOW is particularly suitable for electrical contractors, control panel builders, equipment manufacturers and maintenance engineers who require consistent heat shrink sleeving for repeated installation tasks. Its distinctive yellow finish supports visual cable identification and organised wiring systems in electrical, electronic and industrial applications.
Key Advantages

Reliable 2:1 Heat Shrink Protection and Yellow Cable Identification
The Partex ECHS232YELLOW is designed to create a close-fitting protective sleeve around compatible electrical wires and components. The tubing is positioned over the required section before heat is applied evenly using suitable hot-air equipment. As it warms, the material contracts around the underlying cable or component, helping produce a tidy insulating cover and a professional finish.
With a nominal diameter of 3.2 mm before shrinking and 1.6 mm after full recovery, this tubing is suitable for applications requiring relatively fine heat shrink sleeving. It should be selected so that it fits over the component before heating and contracts sufficiently to grip it afterwards. Its yellow finish can support cable identification schemes, while the 150 m supply length allows installers to cut sleeves to the required dimensions for efficient electrical assembly and maintenance work.
