3M FP301 Flexible Polyolefin Heat Shrink Tubing, Black, 48-Inch with Header Label

The 3M FP301 Flexible Polyolefin Heat Shrink Tubing is a single wall (thin) heat-shrink product designed to insulate, protect, and organize wire splices, terminations, and cable ends. Supplied in a ready-to-use 48-Inch length with an attached header label, this black tubing allows electricians, contractors, and maintenance technicians to identify, sort, and manage sections before installation without measuring or cutting from bulk stock. Manufactured from flexible polyolefin, the tubing shrinks down snugly over connections to help provide a clean, protective covering for a range of wire and cable applications. The header label design keeps job-site inventory organized, making it easier to locate the correct length and color of tubing when working across multiple circuits, panels, or repair jobs.

Key Features

  • Precut Length: Supplied in a convenient 48-Inch length, ready to use without cutting or measuring from bulk rolls, saving setup time on the job site.
  • Durable Construction: Flexible Polyolefin material in a single wall (thin) profile allows the tubing to route around tight bends and conform closely over splices, terminals, and cable ends.
  • Header Label: An integrated header label provides an easy reference point for identifying and organizing tubing sections before installation.
  • Color: Black finish supports standard wire and cable color-coding practices and blends cleanly with common cable jacketing.
  • Thin Wall Profile: The single wall (thin) design keeps the tubing lightweight and low profile, suited to general-purpose splice insulation and identification tasks.
  • Series: Part of the 3M FP301 heat shrink tubing series, a general-purpose electrical insulation product line from 3M.

3M FP301-1/8-48IN-BLACK-HDR – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What sizes does the 3M FP301 black heat shrink tubing come in at 48 inches?
Three expanded inside diameters are offered in the 48-inch black sticks: 1/8 inch, 1/4 inch, and 1 inch. Order numbers are FP301-1/8-48IN-BLACK-HDR, FP301-1/4-48IN-BLACK-HDR, and FP301-1-48IN-BLACK-HDR. The diameter quoted is the as-supplied (unshrunk) size, so pick a stick that slides over the splice or connector before heating.
2) Is 3M FP301 single wall or adhesive-lined dual wall tubing?
FP301 is single wall, thin wall flexible polyolefin with no adhesive liner. It insulates and covers the splice but will not seal out moisture the way an adhesive-lined dual wall product does. For direct burial, below-grade pedestals, or outdoor drop splices, use an adhesive-lined dual wall tubing instead. For panel wiring, control cabinets, and general splice insulation, single wall is the normal choice.
3) What size FP301 should I pick for a butt splice versus a cable bundle?
Match the unshrunk diameter to the largest point it has to pass over. The 1/8 inch stick suits small-gauge wire and individual conductor ends, 1/4 inch covers most insulated butt splices and ring terminal barrels, and the 1 inch covers connector bodies and small conductor bundles. All three come in the same 48-inch black length.
4) Can I use black heat shrink tubing for wire color coding and identification?
Black is the base color here, and it is used for identification by position and marking rather than by color. It blends with standard cable jacketing and takes marker or printed labels well. If your job calls for a color-coded phase or circuit scheme, order the matching colored FP301 sizes alongside the black rather than trying to code with black alone.
5) Will FP301 thin wall tubing bend around tight routing in a control cabinet?
Yes. The flexible polyolefin, thin wall construction keeps the tubing low profile and lets it route around tight bends and conform over terminals and cable ends, which is why it gets used for panel and control cabinet wiring organization and strain relief at bundles.
