Why Choose the Partex ECHS295BROWN 2:1 Heat Shrink Tubing?
The Partex ECHS295BROWN is a brown 2:1 heat shrink tubing product designed for electrical wire insulation, conductor identification and protection of electrical connections. Featuring a nominal supplied diameter of 9.5 mm and a nominal fully recovered diameter of 4.7 mm, this tubing provides a practical solution for electrical installations, control panel wiring, cable harness manufacturing and industrial maintenance.
With its 2:1 nominal shrink ratio, the ECHS295BROWN 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 wires, cable connections and components, creating a neat protective sleeve. Its distinctive brown colour also supports visual conductor identification and colour-coded electrical wiring arrangements, including line conductor identification where applicable.
Supplied in a convenient 75 m pack, the Partex ECHS295BROWN is suitable for electrical contractors, panel builders, cable assembly manufacturers and maintenance engineers requiring consistent quantities of heat shrink sleeving for repeated installation and production work.

Effective Cable Insulation and Brown Conductor Identification
The Partex ECHS295BROWN provides a practical method of insulating and identifying electrical wires using heat-activated tubing. Its nominal supplied diameter of 9.5 mm allows it to be positioned over appropriately sized conductors, cable connections and components, while its 2:1 nominal recovery ratio enables the tubing to shrink towards a nominal recovered diameter of 4.7 mm when sufficient heat is applied.
For effective installation, the tubing should be selected according to the outside diameter of the item being covered, cut to the required length and heated evenly using suitable equipment. The brown colour can support an established electrical conductor identification scheme, including line conductor identification in installations following applicable UK wiring conventions. The 75 m supply quantity makes it convenient for workshops and production environments. 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.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Partex ECHS295BROWN used for?
The Partex ECHS295BROWN is brown heat shrink tubing used for insulating, identifying and protecting suitably sized electrical wires, connections and components.
What does the 2:1 shrink ratio mean?
A 2:1 shrink ratio means the tubing is designed to recover to approximately half its original diameter when correctly heated. The specified nominal diameters for this product are 9.5 mm before shrinking and 4.7 mm after full recovery.
What are the supplied and recovered diameters of ECHS295BROWN?
The tubing has a nominal supplied diameter of 9.5 mm and a nominal fully recovered diameter of 4.7 mm.
What colour is the Partex ECHS295BROWN?
The tubing is supplied in brown, making it suitable for visual identification of electrical wires and cables within an established colour-coding scheme.
How much Partex ECHS295BROWN tubing is supplied?
The specified pack quantity is 75 m of brown Partex ECHS295BROWN heat shrink tubing.
Can the ECHS295BROWN tubing be cut to length?
Yes. The tubing can be cut into suitable lengths before being positioned over the wire, cable or component and heated to achieve the required fit.
How is the Partex ECHS295BROWN installed?
Select tubing that fits over the item before shrinking, cut it to the required length and apply heat evenly using suitable equipment. Follow the manufacturer's recommended heating and installation conditions.
Can ECHS295BROWN be used for electrical phase identification?
Yes. Brown tubing can be used within an appropriate electrical conductor identification system. In UK installations, brown is conventionally used to identify a line conductor, and identification must comply with the applicable wiring standards.
What cable diameter is suitable for ECHS295BROWN?
The tubing has a nominal supplied diameter of 9.5 mm and a nominal fully recovered diameter of 4.7 mm. Select it for items that can pass through the tubing before heating and are large enough for the tubing to recover securely around them. Allow for dimensional tolerances and any connectors or enlarged sections.
Is the Partex ECHS295BROWN adhesive-lined?
The specified product information identifies the tubing's dimensions, colour, shrink ratio and pack quantity but does not confirm an adhesive lining. Applications requiring adhesive-lined tubing should use a product with that feature explicitly specified.
Does ECHS295BROWN provide waterproof sealing?
Waterproof sealing is not established by the supplied specifications. Where moisture sealing is required, select tubing with a verified sealing construction and an appropriate manufacturer rating.
What is the difference between ECHS295BROWN and ECHS295BLUE?
Both products are 2:1 heat shrink tubing with nominal supplied and recovered diameters of 9.5/4.7 mm and a 75 m pack quantity. The ECHS295BROWN is brown, while the ECHS295BLUE is blue, allowing selection according to the required conductor identification scheme.
What is the difference between ECHS295BROWN and ECHS232BROWN?
Both products are brown 2:1 heat shrink tubing. The ECHS295BROWN has nominal supplied and recovered diameters of 9.5/4.7 mm and is supplied in a 75 m pack. The ECHS232BROWN has smaller nominal diameters of 3.2/1.6 mm and is supplied in a 150 m pack.
