Why Choose the Partex ECHS248GREEN 2:1 Heat Shrink Tubing?
The Partex ECHS248GREEN is a versatile 2:1 heat shrink tubing designed for electrical insulation, wire identification, cable protection and professional cable management. Supplied in green, this heat shrink sleeve has a nominal supplied diameter of 4.8 mm and a fully recovered diameter of 2.4 mm, making it suitable for compatible electrical wires, conductors and cable connections.
Designed for dependable electrical installation and cable management, the ECHS248GREEN contracts when heated, forming a close-fitting protective sleeve around suitable cables and components. Its 2:1 shrink ratio means the tubing can reduce to approximately half its original internal diameter, helping provide a neat and secure finish for electrical wiring and cable assemblies. The green colour supports visual identification and organised cable management in industrial electrical systems.
With a 4.8/2.4 mm diameter specification and a generous 75 m pack length, the Partex ECHS248GREEN is particularly suitable for electrical panel builders, wiring harness manufacturers, maintenance engineers and OEM production environments. The green finish makes it useful for colour-coded wiring applications, while the supplied length supports repeated cutting and installation.

Reliable Electrical Insulation and Cable Protection
Heat shrink tubing provides a practical method of insulating, identifying and protecting electrical wires and cable assemblies. The Partex ECHS248GREEN is designed to shrink when heat is applied, allowing the sleeve to conform closely to compatible conductors and components. Its 2:1 shrink ratio makes it useful for applications requiring a compact, tidy and professional cable finish.
The ECHS248GREEN is particularly suitable for electrical panel builders, automation engineers and wiring harness manufacturers working with electrical conductors and cable assemblies. Its green finish supports colour-coded cable identification where permitted by the applicable wiring conventions. The 75 m supply length supports efficient preparation of multiple cable assemblies. For best results, the tubing should be selected according to the component diameter and heated evenly using a suitable heat gun, following the manufacturer's installation guidance. Plain green sleeving should not be used as a substitute for the required green/yellow identification of protective earth conductors.
Typical Applications
- Electrical wire insulation and cable protection.
- Colour-coded wire and conductor identification where appropriate.
- Industrial electrical control panels and cabinets.
- PLC wiring and industrial automation equipment.
- Wiring harness manufacturing and cable assembly.
- Protection of compatible electrical connections.
- OEM electrical equipment manufacturing.
- Electrical maintenance, repair and workshop applications.
- Organised cable management in machinery and control systems.
