Why Choose the Partex HSMB64YELLOW 2:1 Yellow Heat Shrink Tubing?
The Partex HSMB64YELLOW is a versatile yellow heat shrink tubing designed for electrical insulation, cable identification and protection of wires and connections. Featuring a 2:1 shrink ratio, the tubing contracts when heated to provide a close-fitting covering around compatible cables, terminals and electrical components.
Designed for professional electrical installation, maintenance and panel-building applications, this Partex heat shrink tubing helps protect conductors against abrasion and provides a neat, organised finish to wiring assemblies. Its yellow colour supports visual identification and cable management in industrial and commercial electrical systems.
With a nominal supplied diameter of 6.4 mm, a recovered diameter of 3.2 mm and a 12 m pack length, the HSMB64YELLOW offers a practical solution for insulating and identifying cables across a range of electrical installations.

Reliable Cable Insulation and Identification for Electrical Installations
Heat shrink tubing is widely used in electrical engineering to insulate exposed conductors, protect cable joints and provide visual identification of wiring. When appropriate heat is applied, the tubing contracts around the underlying component to create a tidy, close-fitting protective sleeve.
The Partex HSMB64YELLOW is suitable for electrical panel builders, maintenance engineers and installation professionals requiring yellow identification tubing with a 2:1 shrink ratio. Its 12 m pack length allows installers to cut sections to suit individual applications, helping reduce unnecessary material waste.
Typical Applications
- Electrical cable insulation and protection.
- Wire identification and colour coding.
- Control panel wiring and electrical cabinet assembly.
- Protection of compatible cable joints and terminations.
- Industrial machinery and automation wiring.
- Electrical maintenance and repair work.
