Why Choose the Partex HSMB127GREEN Heat Shrink Tubing?
The Partex HSMB127GREEN is a versatile green 2:1 heat shrink tubing designed for electrical insulation, wire identification and protective cable sleeving in industrial, commercial and general electrical installations. Supplied in a convenient 8 m pack, this tubing provides a practical solution for protecting electrical wires, cable connections and wiring assemblies.
Featuring a nominal supplied internal diameter of 12.7 mm and a nominal recovered internal diameter of 6.3 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 provides controlled diameter reduction, making it suitable for cable insulation, connection protection and wire identification applications.
The distinctive green colour supports visual wire identification, colour-coded cable management and organised electrical installations. As part of the Partex HSMB heat shrink tubing range, the HSMB127GREEN is a practical choice for electrical contractors, control panel builders, cable assembly specialists 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 cable or component, forming a close-fitting protective sleeve that helps reduce exposure to abrasion and general mechanical wear.
The Partex HSMB127GREEN is particularly useful for wiring applications requiring a 12.7 mm nominal supplied internal diameter. Its 2:1 shrink ratio allows the tubing to recover towards a nominal internal diameter of 6.3 mm, making it a practical choice for compatible electrical cables, cable joints and wiring assemblies.
The green finish provides a clear visual distinction within organised wiring systems and can support project-specific identification schemes, circuit grouping and cable management. However, solid green tubing must not be confused with green/yellow protective earth identification used under applicable UK and European wiring standards. For effective installation, select tubing that passes over the largest section of the cable or connection before shrinking while remaining capable of contracting securely around the intended surface.
Typical Applications
- Electrical cable insulation and protective sleeving.
- Cable joints and compatible electrical connections.
- Industrial electrical wiring and cable assemblies.
- Electrical control panels and automation equipment.
- Green colour-coded wire and cable identification where permitted by applicable standards.
- Wiring harnesses and machinery electrical assemblies.
- Electrical maintenance, workshop repairs and cable preparation.
- General cable management and protective wiring applications.
