Heat Shrink, also acknowledged as heat shrink tubing, is a plastic tube, which is easily shrinkable in nature. This plastic tube has multiple usages in the field of electric engineering. It is used to repair and correct insulation on wires and bundle them together. Also, it is used for corrosion resistance and to insulate wires, providing environmental safety for wrecked and solid wire conductors, joints, terminals and connections that are utilized in electrical engineering. Additionally, heat shrink is used to make cable entry seals. Usually, it is made up of nylon or polyolefin, which shrinks gradually to ½ or 1/6 of its diameter at the time of heating.
