Very good product. Worked very well for the project I used it for. Will definitely use again.

this shrinks well i did find the i need the next size down

Clear marine grade 3:1 shrink ratio heat shrink tubing is a versatile and durable solution for protecting and insulating electrical connections, particularly in harsh marine environments. Here’s a review highlighting its key aspects: Features and Specifications • Shrink Ratio: The 3:1 shrink ratio means the tubing shrinks to one-third of its original diameter when heated, allowing it to conform tightly to irregular shapes and sizes. • Transparency: Being clear, this tubing allows for easy inspection of the underlying connections without needing to remove the tubing, ensuring that you can check for proper contact and corrosion. • Marine Grade: Designed to withstand harsh marine environments, this tubing is highly resistant to UV light, saltwater, chemicals, and abrasion, making it ideal for use on boats and other marine equipment. • Material Quality: Typically made from high-quality polyolefin, the tubing provides excellent insulation and mechanical protection, enhancing the longevity and reliability of electrical connections. Performance The 3:1 shrink ratio ensures a snug fit over varied connectors and irregular shapes, providing a watertight seal that protects against moisture and corrosion. The clear material is beneficial for ongoing maintenance, allowing visual inspections without removing the tubing. Users report that it shrinks evenly and adheres well to the surfaces, maintaining flexibility and strength even after shrinking. Ease of Use Clear marine grade heat shrink tubing is straightforward to use. Simply cut it to the desired length, slide it over the connection, and apply heat evenly using a heat gun or another suitable heat source. The tubing shrinks quickly and uniformly, forming a secure seal around the connection. Applications • Marine Wiring: Ideal for boats, yachts, and other marine vehicles where exposure to water and harsh conditions is a concern. • Automotive Wiring: Useful in automotive applications where protection from the elements and mechanical stress is required. • Electrical Repairs: Suitable for general electrical repairs and installations, providing a professional and durable finish. Pros and Cons Pros: • High shrink ratio allows for versatile use • Clear material for easy inspection • Excellent resistance to environmental factors • Durable and long-lasting protection Cons: • Requires a heat source for application • May be more expensive than standard heat shrink tubing Conclusion Clear marine grade 3:1 shrink ratio heat shrink tubing is a high-quality, reliable solution for protecting electrical connections in demanding environments. Its superior resistance to UV light, chemicals, and abrasion, combined with the convenience of being clear for inspections, makes it an excellent choice for marine and automotive applications. Despite the need for a heat source, its performance and durability offer great value for both professional and DIY use.

The perfect amount of adhesive which forms nice sealing bead without oozing and dripping. The material has expected uniform wall thickness and is pliable not stiff and brittle. Both the tube and the adhesive are resilient that help resist pull away and peeling when a cable is strained at an angle. The crease disappears and the longitudinal shrinkage is only 10% yet the diameter shrinkage is abundant. The amount of heat needed seems to be a tad greater than most others but manageable without damage to the cable. What was ordered was 3/4” by 4 feet and actually measured 4’ 1/4” long. An anti stick tape was in the interior yet the interior didn’t feel tacky at all. It’s probably keep it apart if stored in a high temperature environment like a tool box in the sun. The surface when shrunk is a satin finish and didn’t seem unusually eager to pickup smudges and it wipes off easily. First impression is, it’s probably the best heat shrink for large cable I’ve ever used, but time will tell. Shown is red 2/0 cable with shrunk yellow 3/4” tube.

This is a decent heat shrink product. It arrived just a few days after I placed my order and works exactly as described. No complaints.

Very well made, shrinks down to the expected ratio. The internal adhesive maintains water tight integrity. I’ve purchased this product multiple times and have found it to be the best quality available and by far the least expensive.

Exceptional service! Very satisfied with product.

Good shrink, glue inside is tough stuff
