INSULTAB PRODUCTS

Insultab manufactures both heat shrinkable tubing and non-shrinkable tubing products which will insulate, identify, seal, protect and beautify in a wide variety of electrical, mechanical, structural, medical and aesthetic applications.

POLYOLEFIN HEAT SHRINKABLE TUBING
HS-101 2:1 shrink ratio
is an excellent all-purpose insulation which shrinks at a low temperature and is easily marked.
HS-101-3X 3:1 shrink ratio
uniformly shrinks over irregular sizes and shapes. It has a low shrink temperature and is excellent for hot stamping.

PVC HEAT SHRINKABLE TUBING
HS-105 2:1 shrink ratio
has a low shrink temperature, is economical, highly flame retardant and resists many chemicals, oils, sunlight, fungus and moisture. Colors are vivid; clear is 'crystal clear'. All HS-105 tubing, including 'clear', meets UL Subject 224 VW-1.
HS-105 X .032 2:1 shrink ratio
is similar to HS-105 with a heavier 1/32" wall thickness.
HS-205 2:1 shrink ratio
is cross-linked PVC which offers all the benefits of PVC heat shrinkable tubing with a longer and less heat-sensitive shelf life. It is excellent for applications with cross-linked PVC wire and cable.

MULTI-WALL HEAT SHRINKABLE TUBING
HS-101-MW-2:1 2:1 shrink ratio
is flexible thin wall polyolefin tubing with a meltable adhesive liner which bonds to a wide variety of plastics, rubbers and metals.
HS-101-MW-3:1 3:1 shrink ratio
is flexible thin wall polyolefin tubing with a meltable adhesive liner. The 3:1 shrink ratio allows for a broader range of applications and its medium wall increases mechanical strength and cut-through resistance.
HS-101-MW 2.5:1 shrink ratio
is semi-rigid polyolefin tubing with a meltable adhesive liner. The tubing will shrink down to 40% of its original diameter when fully recovered. A few sizes can accommodate a wide range of applications. It is easily removed and excellent for rework, retrofit and repairs in the field.
VAT-105™ 2:1 shrink ratio
is low shrink temperature PVC tubing with a meltable, adhesive liner. It will bond with most substrates, is excellent in outdoor applications and will provide moisture protection that will not deteriorate over time. It is ideal for PVC jacketed wire and cable applications.
VAT-205™ 2:1 shrink ratio
is cross-linked low shrink temperature PVC tubing with a meltable adhesive liner. It has excellent abrasion and solder iron resistance, a longer shelf life, will bond with most substrates and will provide an impermeable seal. It is perfect for use with cross-linked PVC jacketed wire and cable.

FOOD AND MEDICAL GRADE TUBING
HS-614 2:1 shrink ratio
is flexible food-grade tubing that Insultab developed for applications involving contact with food, water and non-toxic materials.
USFDA Reg. C.F.R. 177.1330.
HS-714 2:1 shrink ratio
is flexible medical-grade tubing with superior dielectric properties that Insultab developed to meet the most stringent medical application standards.
USP XXII, NF XVII Class VI.

SPECIALTY MATERIALS HEAT SHRINKABLE TUBING
HSK-600 Kynar© 2:1 shrink ratio
is cross-linked tubing with a semi-rigid, thin, translucent wall. It performs well in caustic environments.
HSN-100 Neoprene© 2:1 shrink ratio
is cross-linked tubing which operates in a broad temperature range and is very flexible at low temperatures.
HS-VTN Viton© 2:1 shrink ratio
is a cross-linked modified fluoroelastomer which is very flexible at high and low temperatures.

PVC TUBING
4900
is 105°C rated lead-free PVC tubing that is resistant to many chemicals, oils and acids, heat, and abrasion. It operates in a wide temperature range and has high dielectric strength. It meets EU "End of Life" and "Lead Free" requirements.
4900 X .032 Heavy Wall
is 105°C rated lead-free PVC tubing with a 1/32" wall thickness. It is resistant to many chemicals, oils and acids, heat, and abrasion. It operates in a wide temperature range and has high dielectric strength. It meets EU "End of Life" and "Lead Free" requirements.

TUBING ASSORTMENTS
175 Piece Assortment Kit 2:1 shrink ratio
of either HS-105 PVC or HS-101 polyolefin heat shrinkable tubing, cut in six inch lengths. Each transparent canister contains a mix of the five most popular diameter sizes and the six most popular flame retardant colors, meeting UL, CSA and military specifications.
Pull Pak ® Heat Shrinkable Tubing Dispenser 2:1 shrink ratio
contains 5 mini-spools of the most popular diameter sizes of HS-105 PVC heat shrinkable tubing in black, enabling the user to easily cut the exact length of tubing required for an application.
Insul-Kits, Mini-Packs and Display Packets
contain heat shrinkable tubing products packaged in small quantities, ideal for MRO and engineering departments, prototypes, R & D labs, shop floor, workbench or service repair truck applications, low volume end users, point-of sale displays, hobbyists and do-it-yourselfers!

PROCESSING EQUIPMENT
Variable Temperature Control Heat Gun
is a multi-purpose, high quality, low cost heat gun with an electronic variable thermal control dial to select the exact temperature needed. UL, CSA approved.
