Heat Shrink Insulation Accessories Vs Conventional Insulating Tape

Electrical tapes generally made of vinyl, rubber, mastic, etc. is easier to apply. Heat shrink sleeves and other accessories come in predetermined shrink ratios that assure a more precise fit even to congested areas. With adhesive-lined heat shrink tubes, you can form waterproof seals. Heat shrink tubing creates a strong protection layer against the possibilities of physical damage.

The main limitation of electrical tape is its limited durability because over the period, it loses its adhesiveness to insulate the electrical cable or other components of electrical installation. When exposed to heat, conventional insulating tape starts deteriorating and harsh environmental factors accelerate deterioration process. Electrical tapes do not perform well in applications having exposure to chemicals and abrasion.
