Why Choose the Partex HSMB48GREY 2:1 Grey Heat Shrink Tubing?
The Partex HSMB48GREY is a versatile grey heat shrink tubing designed for electrical insulation, cable identification and protection of wires and electrical connections. Featuring a 2:1 shrink ratio, the tubing contracts when heated to provide a close-fitting protective covering around appropriately sized cables, conductors and components.
As part of the Partex HSMB heat shrink tubing range, this product provides a practical solution for electrical installation, industrial maintenance and cable management applications. Its grey colour supports consistent cable identification and organised wiring arrangements, making it suitable for control panels, electrical assemblies and automation equipment.
With a nominal supplied diameter of 4.8 mm, a recovered diameter of approximately 2.4 mm and a 12 m pack length, the HSMB48GREY is ideal for small electrical cables, wire insulation and industrial electrical assembly work.

Reliable Cable Insulation and Wiring Protection
Heat shrink tubing provides a convenient method of insulating electrical conductors, covering wire joints and protecting cable sections. When suitable heat is applied, the tubing contracts around the underlying component, forming a neat covering that helps reduce exposure to abrasion, incidental contact and routine handling.
The Partex HSMB48GREY is particularly useful for small electrical cables where accurate cable identification and compact installation are important. Its grey finish supports consistent wiring layouts in electrical control systems, while the 12 m supplied length allows installers to cut individual sections to suit different applications. For effective fitting, the selected tubing should be large enough to pass over the component before shrinking and capable of recovering securely around it.

- Electrical wire insulation and protection.
- Cable identification and colour-coded wiring systems.
- Industrial control panel wiring.
- Electrical equipment assembly and maintenance.
- Protection of suitable conductor joints and cable sections.
