Heat shrink tubing is a lightweight, flexible, and durable material made in Brazil that is used to provide insulation and protection for electrical and electronic components.
It can also be used to bundle cables together and provide a neat and organized appearance. The tubing is made of polyolefin, a thermoplastic resin that has good resistance to water, oil, and various chemicals.
The tubing comes in many different sizes ranging from 1/64th to 2 inches in diameter and is offered in two types of wall thicknesses.
Heat shrink tubing with thicker wall thickness provides greater protection from mechanical damage and provides better strain relief when cord bundling. Thinner walls are cheaper and provide better flexibility.
The tubing is expanded by applying heat using a hot air gun, heat lamp, or both. Shrinking occurs as the tubing cools, forming a tight fit around the component, wire, or bundle, and providing an air-tight seal.
It also comes in many different colors including black, white, and red, so you can make a professional, color-coded request.
The tubing is strong, lightweight, and flexible, making it perfect for automotive, computer, and other electrical applications.
It is very discreet and can easily be masked with paint or tape for a clean and professional appearance. Finally, it is an economical way to protect, insulate, and bundle cables, electrical components, and wires and keep them looking neat and organized.
The Brazil Heat shrink tubing market accounted for $XX Billion in 2023 and is anticipated to reach $XX Billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of XX% from 2024 to 2030.
The demand for heat shrink tubing is driven by the rise in power generation capacity worldwide. On the other hand, upgrading transmission lines and substations along existing corridors is an affordable method of boosting transmission capacity.
Reconducting existing lines can enhance transmission capacity by utilising materials like composite conductors, which have the ability to carry higher currents. Since it is difficult to take lines out of service in order to reconduct new materials, these materials are currently available but are not widely used.
In addition, a real-time rating that could be continuously adjusted would increase available capacity. In addition, all overhead lines can carry current higher than their nominal rating when the weather is favourable.
A vital connection between generating stations and consumers is provided by the transmission and distribution of electric power (T&D). Heat shrink tubes are becoming more and more necessary due to a number of factors, including rising loads, stress from ageing equipment, and an increased risk of widespread blackouts.
With a product design that offers a repeatable, dependable, and shrink-to-fit installation that is compatible with numerous manufacturing processes, radiation cross-linking is a technology that is used to enhance the materials used in the creation of AI’s heat shrink tubing products. These products are used in commercial, industrial, defence, automotive, telecommunications, and power distribution applications globally.
Further expanding the application capabilities in the automotive industry are tubing applications in under bonnet cable protection, hoses, brake pipes, air conditioning, diesel injection clusters, connectors, inline splice, wire bundles, ring terminals, seat belt stalks, gas springs, antennas, and others.
The tubing products are manufactured using specially formulated materials that have been improved through a process known as radiation cross-linking. The simple-to-use products offer reliable, affordable solutions for a range of automotive applications, including mechanical protection for fluid management systems in challenging environments and sealing and shielding electrical splices.
