Insulation Tube distinction

2022-04-19
Insulation tube is a general term. Insulation tube can be divided into glass fiber insulation tube, PVC tube, heat shrinkable tube, ceramic tube and so on. Insulation tubes are divided into two kinds of raw materials. One kind of raw material is heat shrinkable insulation tube, the other kind of raw material is cold shrinkable insulation tube. Let's see the difference between these two raw materials.

1.Heat Shrinkable Insulation Tube
Insulation tube of heat shrinkable raw material is made of PE, EVA, polyolefin and other raw materials through a series of processing technology. The insulation tube of heat-shrinkable material has the characteristics of heating shrinkage and tightly wrapped on the covered object.
Usually, heating tools such as heat guns and spray guns are used. When heating, it should be noted that the same position should not be heated for a long time to avoid cracking of the heat shrinkable insulation tube due to high temperature. The correct method should be to bake the insulation tube back and forth at a uniform speed.

2.Cold  Shrinkable Insulation Tube
The insulating tube of the cold shrinkable material is made from silicone rubber material through a series of special processing processes. The products of cold shrinkable raw materials all have one thing in common: they do not need to use heating tools and have higher safety performance in petroleum, chemical industry, mining and other places. After the cold shrinkable insulation tube is adjusted on the covered object, the support strip is pulled out, and it will be wrapped on the covered object depending on its resilience.

In fact, there are many differences between heat shrinkable insulation tube and cold shrinkable insulation tube. Whether it is cold shrinkable insulation tube or heat shrinkable insulation tube, it is appropriate to choose your own product requirements.
