    Many companies now consider using heat shrink tubing as insulating sleeves? Whether the heat shrink tube is insulated also affects many electronic component factories. As one of the important parameters of the heat shrink tube, the insulation performance plays a very important role. Today, the editor of DUWAI will analyze for you whether the heat shrink tube is insulated? The role of insulating heat shrink tubing. Mainly focus on the above two issues to analyze the insulation performance of heat shrink tube in detail.

Does heat shrink tubing insulate?

    First of all, let me tell you the conclusion clearly: heat shrink tubing is insulating. What is the insulation performance of heat shrink tubing? The insulation level of conventional heat shrinkable tubes is a rated voltage of 600V. There are some ultra-thin heat shrinkable tubes with an insulation level of only 300V, which can meet most low-voltage insulation. If it is used for high-voltage insulation, you need to use special high-voltage insulating heat shrinkable tubes (that is, busbar heat shrinkable tubes). The insulation grades of busbar heat shrinkable tubes are divided into three levels: 1KV, 10KV and 35KV, so everyone is choosing insulating heat shrinkable tubes. It is necessary to know the voltage level when piping to prevent safety accidents. Generally, if the voltage level is not noted, it is 600V.

The role of insulating heat shrink tubing

    The most important function of insulating heat shrink tubing is of course insulation protection. Heat shrinkable tubing has a wide range of functions: anti-corrosion, anti-acid, anti-leakage (insulation), and anti-leakage. Heat shrinkable tube performance: It has high temperature shrinkage, environmental protection, soft flame retardant, insulation and anti-corrosion functions. Because of the excellent properties of heat shrinkable tubes, insulating heat shrinkable tubes are widely used in the insulation protection of various wire harnesses, solder joints, and inductors, as well as the rust and corrosion prevention of metal tubes and rods. The insulation voltage level of the insulating heat shrinkable tube is 600V, which can be fully suitable for the wire harness insulation protection of household appliances. Therefore, in the fields of household appliances and other fields, after opening, the internal components can often be seen protected by heat shrinkable tubes.
