Shrink-Kon HS-KIT – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What shrink ratio does the Thomas & Betts HS-KIT SHRINK-KON tubing use, and what wire sizes will it cover?
The SHRINK-KON HS-KIT uses 2:1 shrink tubing, meaning each piece recovers to half its supplied inside diameter. Pick a size whose expanded ID slips over the largest point of the connection (lug barrel, splice, or connector body) and whose recovered ID is smaller than the bare conductor, and it will grip. The kit is an assortment of sizes in black CPO Series non-lined tubing, so you have a range on hand rather than one diameter.
2) What temperature do I need to hit to shrink this tubing, and can I use a torch?
Shrink temperature is 120 C, so a standard electrical heat gun gets there easily. Work the heat evenly along the piece rather than parking it in one spot. An open flame is not the tool for it, since cross-linked polyolefin scorches and you lose the insulation value you installed it for.
3) Is this heat shrink lined with adhesive, or do I need a sealant for a moisture-tight splice?
This is the CPO Series non-lined version, so there is no internal adhesive and it will not seal against water on its own. For buried, wet-location, or direct-moisture splices you want a dual-wall adhesive-lined tubing instead. Non-lined is the right choice for insulation, strain relief, abrasion protection, and color coding inside panels and junction boxes.
4) Does the Thomas & Betts SHRINK-KON tubing carry UL and CSA recognition for electrical insulation?
It is recognized to UL 224 and CSA 22.2 No. 198.1 at a 125 C rating, under UL File Number E137759. It also meets MIL-DTL-23053/5 Class 1 and 2, AMS 3636 and 3637, and DEF STAN 59-97, which is what defense and aerospace work normally asks for.
5) Will SHRINK-KON heat shrink hold up in an unheated warehouse or outdoor equipment in winter?
Rated service range is -55 C to 135 C, which covers unheated spaces, rooftop equipment, and cold-climate outdoor enclosures without the tubing going brittle in service. The same range covers the hot end, so it is also suitable near motor leads and control panels that run warm.
6) Is this heat shrink flame retardant and RoHS compliant for a spec submittal?
Yes on both counts. The tubing is flame-retardant cross-linked polyolefin and the kit is RoHS compliant, which is usually enough to clear institutional and government submittal requirements for wire insulation materials.
7) How is the SHRINK-KON HS-KIT sold, and do I have to buy a case?
Part number HS-KIT is sold each, with an order multiple of 1 and an outer package of 1. One kit is a valid order, so it works as a single truck-stock item or a bench kit without committing to case quantity.
8) Does this kit come in any color other than black?
The HS-KIT assortment is black only. If you need colored shrink for phase identification or circuit coding, you would spec individual colored tubing rather than this kit, which is built around black CPO Series non-lined sizes.
9) What are the package dimensions of the SHRINK-KON HS-KIT for van or shelf storage?
Package measures 6.75 x 1.938 x 10.813, so it sits flat on a van shelf or in a gang box drawer without taking a full bin. Handy if you are standardizing a kit across multiple service trucks.
