TE Connectivity introduces their Single Wall Flame Retardant (SWFR) heat shrink tubing. This tubing is a halogen-free, UL VW-1 rated single wall heat shrink tubing that is a cost effective solution for electrical insulation and TE Connectivity Single Wall Flame Retardant Tubingmechanical protection from abrasion. TE’s SWFR is a highly flame-retardant, 2:1 shrink ratio, polyolefin tubing with a low shrink temperature for fast application. Advances in material science and manufacturing efficiencies allow the Single Wall Flame Retardant tubing to be offered at an attractive price point. The SWFR is offered in thin wall (X2) and very thin wall (X4) versions.
TE’s SWFR is acceptable for use in confined areas where halogenated materials are prohibited due to their emitting toxic or acidic gases when burned. The tubing design allows for design flexibility with a broad range of sizes and wall thicknesses.
