Why Choose the Partex HS216GREEN 2:1 Green Heat Shrink Tubing?
The Partex HS216GREEN is a versatile 2:1 heat shrink tubing designed to provide electrical insulation, cable identification and mechanical protection for wires and electrical connections. Supplied in green, this heat shrink sleeving is suitable for professional electrical installations, control panel assembly, cable harness manufacturing and industrial maintenance applications.
Manufactured as part of the Partex heat shrink tubing range, HS216GREEN provides a practical solution for protecting and organising electrical wiring. When heated appropriately, the tubing contracts around the cable or component, producing a close-fitting protective sleeve that helps reduce exposure to abrasion and everyday handling damage.
With a supplied internal diameter of 1.6 mm, a recovered diameter of approximately 0.8 mm and a 2:1 shrink ratio, HS216GREEN is particularly suited to small-diameter wires and compact electrical connections. Supplied in a 150 m pack, it offers a convenient solution for repetitive wiring operations and production environments.

Reliable Cable Insulation and Protection for Electrical Installations
Heat shrink tubing provides a practical method of insulating and protecting electrical conductors and cable terminations. The Partex HS216GREEN uses heat-activated contraction to form a close-fitting sleeve around suitable wiring, helping to improve cable organisation and reduce exposure to abrasion during normal service.
The 2:1 shrink ratio makes this tubing useful where a compact protective covering is required. Its green colour can assist with cable identification in electrical panels and wiring harnesses, while the generous 150 m supply is convenient for repeated cutting and installation. Select the tubing diameter to suit the finished cable assembly, apply heat evenly using an appropriate heat gun and allow the sleeve to cool before handling.
Typical Applications

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Partex HS216GREEN used for?
The Partex HS216GREEN is used to insulate, protect and identify small-diameter electrical wires and connections in control panels, cable harnesses and industrial electrical installations.
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 suitable heating conditions.
What are the supplied and recovered diameters?
The tubing has a nominal supplied diameter of 1.6 mm and a nominal fully recovered diameter of 0.8 mm.
How much heat shrink tubing is supplied?
Partex HS216GREEN is supplied in a 150 m pack, making it suitable for regular electrical assembly and maintenance work.
How is the Partex HS216GREEN installed?
Cut the tubing to the required length, slide it over the wire or component and apply controlled, even heat using a suitable heat gun until the tubing contracts around the assembly. Ensure the selected tubing size is appropriate for the application.
Trusted for Professional Cable Identification and Protection
