Products that are marked "On Order" in the "Available Quantity" column are usually not in stock. Such products are available for purchase, however, due to their limited customer base, they usually have higher minimum quantities. DACPOL offers products that are not in stock for the following reasons: DACPOL currently has a large number of electronic components in stock and adds new products every day, however, tens of thousands of additional components and their various variants are available from our suppliers. Even though it is unreasonable to have all these products in stock due to the limited sales, we believe that it is in the best interest of our customers to make them available. Our goal is to inform customers about the maximum number of products available and enable them to make decisions based on specifications, prices, availability, required minimums and our technical advice. Please note that selecting the "In Stock" checkbox may limit the display to only products available for delivery straight from the shelf.

What is a heat-shrinkable sleeving?

Heat-shrinkable sleeving, heat-shrinkable hose, heat-shrink, heat-shrinkable tube is a fleximeter with shape memory, which was cold-stretched. This tube after being heated with a burner or blowtorch up to a given temperature, most often 115˚C, tries to come back to the original shape, thus taking over the shape of the insulated object. The tube shrinks, creating an insulating layer, which protects from mechanical damages, corrosion and shocks. There are various tubes available, with different thickness of diameters and shrinking rates. Additionally, it is worth considering buying fire-proof tubes or UV-proof, depending on the application in which it is used.

Types of heat-shrinkable sleevings

We distinguish the following types of heat-shrinkable sleevings:

  • RCKH1 – thin-wall tube with glue made of halogen free material, UV resistant with shrinking rate of 3:1 or 4:1, used in applications where protection from filtering in of humidity in needed;
  • RPKH1 – tube thickened with glue, UV resistant, made of halogen free material. Used for  reconstructing insulation and damaged layers or connected power electronic cables;
  • Tubes with decreased combustibility – used in places where fire safety requirements are increased;
  • Heat-shrinkable sleevings with high chemical and temperature resistance;
  • RD, RDK and RDM tubes – thick-wall sealed with glue or without glue, used for protecting lampposts or pipelines;
  • RGB tubes – thick-wall with high-shrink glue (6:1), used for insulating objects with big diameter differences;
  • RPM heat-shrinkable sleevings – thickened with sealing mastic, used for protecting pipe connections.
