What is this shrink sleeve used for?

This shrink sleeve is designed to identify wires and cables in electrical assemblies. Once labelled, it slides over the conductor and is secured by heat shrinking, helping to keep circuit identification clearly associated with the correct wire.

Which cable diameters can the sleeve accommodate?

The sleeve is specified for cable diameters from 0.8 mm to 2.4 mm. Check the outside diameter of the cable, including its insulation, when selecting a suitable marker.

What size is the labelling area?

The labelling field measures 30 mm long by 4 mm wide, providing space for wire references, circuit identifiers or other identification text.

Are the sleeves supplied pre-printed?

No. The sleeves are supplied white and unlabelled, allowing identification text to be added to suit the wiring layout or project.

Which printers are listed as compatible?

The manufacturer’s datasheet lists the THERMOMARK ROLL, THERMOMARK ROLL X1 and THERMOMARK X1.2 as compatible printers for labelling these sleeves.

How are the sleeves fitted to a conductor?

The conductor is threaded through the sleeve before the sleeve is heat-shrunk into place. Plan installation so that the sleeve can pass over the conductor end before any termination that would prevent it from sliding on.

What material are the sleeves made from?

The sleeves are made from halogen-free polyolefin. They remain flexible after shrinking and provide additional electrical insulation and mechanical protection for the conductor.

What is the operating temperature range?

The stated operating temperature range is -55 °C to +135 °C. This is the ambient operating range, not a specified heat-shrinking temperature.

How many markers are supplied on a roll?

The datasheet specifies 5,000 individual labels, arranged two per row. The sleeves are supplied in roll format for use with the listed compatible printers.

Are the sleeves perforated?

Yes. The sleeves are perforated to allow individual markers to be separated. The product features also describe arrangements with up to four markers per sleeve separated by perforations.

Where can these sleeves be used?

Typical applications include identifying conductors in control panels, electrical cabinets and machine wiring. Their slide-on, heat-shrink format is suited to installations where a close-fitting cable identifier is required.

What should be checked before selecting this sleeve?

Check the cable’s outside diameter, the space needed for identification text, printer compatibility and the application’s operating temperature. Also confirm that the sleeve can be fitted before the conductor is terminated.
