Why Choose the Partex HSMB24GREEN 2:1 Green Heat Shrink Tubing?
The Partex HSMB24GREEN is a versatile 2:1 green heat shrink tubing product designed for electrical insulation, wire protection, cable identification and professional cable management. Manufactured by Partex, a specialist in cable marking and identification solutions, this heat shrink tubing provides a practical way to protect small electrical conductors while creating neat, organised and easily identifiable wiring installations.
Featuring a nominal supplied diameter of 2.4 mm and a fully recovered diameter of approximately 1.2 mm, the HSMB24GREEN is particularly suitable for small-diameter wires, electrical connections and compact cable assemblies. Its 2:1 shrink ratio allows the tubing to contract to approximately half its original diameter when correctly heated, creating a close-fitting protective sleeve around compatible conductors.
Supplied in a convenient 15 m pack with a distinctive green finish, the Partex HSMB24GREEN is ideal for electrical control panel wiring, industrial automation, electronic assemblies and cable harness manufacturing. The green colour provides a useful visual identification option for designated wiring groups and circuits, helping improve cable organisation and simplify maintenance where the chosen colour identification complies with applicable electrical standards.

Reliable Insulation and Identification for Electrical Wiring
Heat shrink tubing provides a convenient method of protecting electrical conductors, insulated connections and cable assemblies. The Partex HSMB24GREEN features a 2:1 shrink ratio, allowing its nominal diameter to reduce from 2.4 mm to approximately 1.2 mm when heated under appropriate conditions.
The compact diameter makes this tubing particularly useful for small electrical wiring, electronic connections and industrial control circuits where a neat, close-fitting protective sleeve is required. Its green finish can help distinguish designated conductors or wiring groups within a cable assembly, supporting organised installation and efficient maintenance.
Green tubing should not be assumed to provide the same identification as green/yellow protective earth sleeving. Conductor colours must be selected according to the applicable wiring standards and installation requirements. The tubing provides supplementary protection and identification but does not replace correctly rated conductor insulation or other required electrical safety measures.
For effective installation, select tubing that passes over the largest part of the wire or component before shrinking and has a recovered diameter small enough to grip the intended surface. Cut the tubing to the required length, position it correctly and apply controlled, even heat using a suitable heat gun. Always follow the manufacturer's recommended installation conditions and avoid overheating adjacent components.
Typical Applications
- Electrical insulation and protective sleeving for small-diameter wires.
- Industrial control panel wiring and conductor identification.
- Electronic equipment assembly and maintenance.
- Protection of suitable soldered wire joints and insulated connections.
- Small cable harnesses and wiring looms.
- Industrial automation and instrumentation wiring.
- Colour-coded cable organisation and identification.
- Electrical machinery and equipment wiring.
- Electrical repair, refurbishment and maintenance work.
