XHF UL Listed 55 FT 1/8" Heat Shrink Tubing Roll 2:1,Electrical Industrial Shrink Tube for Wire Insulation, RoHS Compliant Black

I wanted to make a security cable for my wife's realtor lock boxes. Cables work well for that, but I had this chain sitting around in my shop and thought, "if it is good for bicycle chains, it should make for a good lockbox security cable." I had to come up with a way to keep the chain from damaging any porch rails around which it would wrap, so I decided to try shrink wrap. I did not need the marine-grade, because I wanted to be able to remove the sleeve and replace it if that became necessary. I found this particular roll at a fair price, so I decided to try it. It measured 1-5/8" flat, but keep in mind that is a FLAT measurement and the diameter measurement is how I ordered, which was 1". I used a heat gun to shrink it, and you can see by the pictures how well it came out. When I shrank the tube, it kept its length while fitting around the chain links, so I was super happy about that. Being concerned with the possibility of one of the chains rusting, I decided to spray WD40 into the tube and let it saturate the chain all the way down. It did not seem to affect the tubing in any way. I can't wait to see how this set up handles adverse weather.

Good product and good value

The product worked very well. It fit over my fiber handle and shrink perfectly.

I used these on truck bed crossbars, only downside is creases remained after shrinking since product comes flat, but overall did what I wanted

Item came very quickly and was as described. Good product.

This product is thin, and shrinks easily with a standard heat gun. Just what I needed to shim our my garage door rollers.

Nice to have this in bulk and it work alright

This is a way better option than the little packs they sell at the hardware store. I simply roll out and cut off what I need. Ideal for my needs and will buy again when I eventually use this up.
