Why Choose the Partex HS212CLEAR 2:1 Heat Shrink Tubing?
The Partex HS212CLEAR is a versatile 2:1 heat shrink tubing designed for electrical insulation, wire protection and cable sleeving applications. Featuring a clear, transparent finish, this tubing has a nominal supplied diameter of 1.2 mm and a recovered diameter of 0.6 mm, making it particularly suitable for small-diameter electrical conductors and connections.
As part of the Partex heat shrink tubing range, the HS212CLEAR provides a practical solution for protecting wires while allowing the underlying conductor colour or identification markings to remain visible. When suitable heat is applied, the tubing contracts around the cable or component, creating a close-fitting protective sleeve and a neat, professional finish.
Supplied in a convenient 150 m pack, the HS212CLEAR is ideal for electrical panel builders, cable harness manufacturers and maintenance engineers requiring consistent cable insulation and protection. Its 2:1 shrink ratio offers flexibility when fitting tubing around compatible wire and component diameters.
Key Advantages
- 2:1 heat shrink ratio provides a close fit around compatible cables and conductors.
- 1.2 mm supplied diameter suitable for small electrical wiring applications.
- 0.6 mm recovered diameter for compact wire insulation and sleeving.

- Can be cut to application-specific lengths before installation.
Reliable Transparent Cable Insulation and Protection
Heat shrink tubing provides an effective method of insulating and protecting electrical wires and small connections. The Partex HS212CLEAR contracts when suitable heat is applied, allowing it to conform to compatible conductor diameters and provide a neat protective covering.
The transparent construction is particularly useful where conductor colours, identification sleeves or markings need to remain visible after installation. Its compact dimensions make it suitable for smaller electrical wires used in control panels, cable harnesses and electronic assemblies. For reliable results, select the appropriate tubing diameter and follow the manufacturer's recommended heating procedure.
Typical Applications
- Electrical wire insulation and protective sleeving.
- Control panel wiring and cable management.
- Protection of small-diameter electrical conductors.
- Cable harness manufacturing and assembly.
- Transparent covering of wire identification markings.
- Electrical equipment maintenance and repairs.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Partex HS212CLEAR used for?
The Partex HS212CLEAR is used for electrical insulation, cable protection and transparent wire sleeving on compatible small-diameter conductors and connections.
What does the 2:1 shrink ratio mean?
A 2:1 shrink ratio means the tubing can reduce to approximately half its original nominal diameter when fully recovered under appropriate heating conditions.
What are the supplied and recovered diameters?
The HS212CLEAR has a nominal supplied diameter of 1.2 mm and a nominal recovered diameter of 0.6 mm.
Is the HS212CLEAR tubing transparent?
Yes. The tubing is supplied in a clear, transparent finish, allowing underlying conductor colours and identification markings to remain visible.
How much heat shrink tubing is supplied in one pack?
Each pack contains 150 m of Partex clear 2:1 heat shrink tubing.
Can the tubing be cut to different lengths?
Yes. The tubing can be cut into suitable lengths before heating, allowing installers to prepare individual sleeves for specific wires, connections and electrical components.
