ECHS2508CLEAR Partex 2:1 heat shrink tubing, 50.8/25.4mm, clear, pack 30m

Why Choose the Partex ECHS2508CLEAR 2:1 Heat Shrink Tubing?

The Partex ECHS2508CLEAR is a clear 2:1 heat shrink tubing product designed for electrical cable insulation, cable identification protection and protective sleeving of larger electrical connections. Featuring a nominal supplied diameter of 50.8 mm and a nominal fully recovered diameter of 25.4 mm, this tubing provides a practical solution for larger cable assemblies, electrical installations, industrial wiring and equipment maintenance.

With its 2:1 nominal shrink ratio, the ECHS2508CLEAR is designed to reduce to approximately half its original diameter when correctly heated and allowed to recover. This enables the tubing to conform around appropriately sized cables, cable joints and components, creating a neat protective covering. Its clear finish allows underlying cable colours, identification labels and markings to remain visible, subject to the transparency of the installed sleeve.

Supplied in a convenient 30 m pack, the Partex ECHS2508CLEAR is suitable for electrical contractors, panel builders, cable assembly manufacturers and maintenance engineers requiring larger-diameter transparent heat shrink sleeving for installation, identification and production applications.

Key Advantages

Transparent Protection for Larger Electrical Cables and Cable Identification

The Partex ECHS2508CLEAR provides a practical method of insulating and protecting larger electrical cables using heat-activated tubing. Its nominal supplied diameter of 50.8 mm allows it to be positioned over appropriately sized cables, connections and components, while its 2:1 nominal recovery ratio enables the tubing to shrink towards a nominal recovered diameter of 25.4 mm when sufficient heat is applied.

The clear construction is particularly useful where underlying cable identification labels, conductor colours or printed markings need to remain visible. For effective installation, select tubing according to the dimensions of the item being covered, cut it to the required length and heat it evenly using suitable equipment. The 30 m supply quantity supports repeated cable assembly and maintenance work. Applications requiring specific dielectric ratings, operating temperatures, flame classifications, adhesive sealing or environmental certifications should be checked against the relevant Partex product specifications before installation.
