Why Choose the Partex ECHS264GREY 2:1 Heat Shrink Tubing?
The Partex ECHS264GREY is a versatile 2:1 heat shrink tubing designed for electrical insulation, wire identification, cable protection and professional cable management. Supplied in grey, this heat shrink sleeve has a nominal supplied diameter of 6.4 mm and a fully recovered diameter of 3.2 mm, making it suitable for compatible electrical wires, conductors and cable connections.
Designed for dependable electrical installation and cable management, the ECHS264GREY contracts when heated, forming a close-fitting protective sleeve around suitable cables and components. Its 2:1 shrink ratio means the tubing can reduce to approximately half its original internal diameter, helping provide a neat and secure finish for electrical wiring and cable assemblies. The grey colour offers a neutral, professional appearance that complements industrial control panels, machinery and organised electrical wiring systems.
With a 6.4/3.2 mm diameter specification and a generous 75 m pack length, the Partex ECHS264GREY is particularly suitable for electrical panel builders, wiring harness manufacturers, maintenance engineers and OEM production environments. Its grey finish supports consistent cable identification and colour-coded wiring applications where appropriate, while the supplied length is convenient for repeated cutting and installation.

Reliable Electrical Insulation and Cable Protection
Heat shrink tubing provides a practical method of insulating, identifying and protecting electrical wires and cable assemblies. The Partex ECHS264GREY is designed to shrink when heat is applied, allowing the sleeve to conform closely to compatible conductors and components. Its 2:1 shrink ratio makes it useful for applications requiring a compact, tidy and professional cable finish.
The ECHS264GREY is particularly suitable for electrical panel builders, automation engineers and wiring harness manufacturers working with electrical conductors and cable assemblies. Its grey finish provides a consistent appearance within industrial control panels and electrical installations, while the 75 m supply length supports efficient preparation of multiple cable assemblies. For best results, the tubing should be selected according to the component diameter and heated evenly using a suitable heat gun, following the manufacturer's installation guidance. Where conductor identification is required, the chosen sleeve colour must comply with applicable wiring regulations.
Typical Applications
- Electrical wire insulation and cable protection.
- Colour-coded wire and conductor identification where appropriate.
- Industrial electrical control panels and cabinets.
- PLC wiring and industrial automation equipment.
- Wiring harness manufacturing and cable assembly.
- Protection of compatible electrical connections.
- OEM electrical equipment manufacturing.
- Electrical maintenance, repair and workshop applications.
