HSK-600 is a PVDF heat shrinkable tubing designed for high-temperature electrical insulation and strain relief of wires, solder joints, and connections. It has a 2:1 shrink ratio, a recommended shrink temperature of 175°C, and an operating temperature range of -55°C to 175°C. The tubing is translucent, with a nominal wall thickness of 0.010 to 0.020 inches depending on size, and is supplied in 4-foot lengths. It meets UL 224 VW-1, CSA OFT, and SAE AS23053/8 certifications. Specific gravity is 1.8 g/cc, tensile strength is 5000 psi, minimum ultimate elongation is 150%, volume resistivity is 3.8 × 10¹⁵ ohm-cm, and dielectric strength is 700 to 1000 v/mil depending on expanded inner diameter. Longitudinal shrink change is ±10%, with a shelf life of 5 years when stored below 35°C.
Low shrink temperature, economical, highly flame retardant, 30% stronger than polyolefin and resistant to most chemicals, oils, sunlight, fungus and moisture. Colors are vivid; clear is ‘crystal clear’. All HS-105 colors, including clear, are flame retardant meeting UL Subject 224 VW-1 and specifically designed to match all operating characteristics of PVC jacketed wire and cable.
