The black 6.4 mm heat shrink tube is essential to ensure safety and durability of any marine electrical system. It functions to seal, insulate, and protect splices against the harsh marine environment.
Advantages
- Extends the life of protected connections against corrosion and moisture.
- Discreet black color, ideal for visible installations.
- Secures and reinforces cable junction points after heat application.
Usage Areas
- General electrical installations on vessels.
- Quick repair of cable insulation damage.
- Consolidation of branches in electrical panels.
Practical Tips
- Always cut to the necessary length before shrinking.
- Apply gentle and even heat without direct flame contact.
- Avoid overfilling the tube to prevent damage.
Maintenance
- Periodic visual inspection, especially in below-deck or water-exposed installations.
- Replace upon evident deterioration or loss of flexibility.
