Heat Shrink Tubing Kit - 3:1 Ratio Adhesive Lined, Marine Grade Shrink Wrap - Automotive Industrial Heat-Shrink Tubing - Black, Red - 400 PCS

The media could not be loaded. I never knew "marine" grade heat shrink tubing existed until a neighbor enlightened me. So, I searched Amazon and bought this kit for the "Pros" listed below, plus the good Amazon review score.My video shows the ease of use and my photo shows the cooled connection with a thin bead of hardened adhesive between the wire and the tubing. That's where the waterproofing comes from.Pros:Kit includes several tubing diameters that will work with the most common wire gauges.The quantity of each size is very generous - 360 pieces may last me the rest of my life!The 3-1/2" length of each piece is enough for most needs.The adhesive lining provides a secure and waterproof connection.The carrying/storage case is a big plus and makes it simple to find the optimal sized tubing.The 3:1 shrink ratio pretty much guarantees a good seal.Cons:None that I am aware of.In summary, I've had non-adhesive shrink tubing allow the wires to pull loose from the connection many times because the tubing didn't form a tight enough bond to the wire. The adhesive liner with this tubing solves that problem.I wish I had discovered this type of heat shrink tubing long ago!Even when a wiring connection does not need to be waterproof, the adhesive adds greatly to the strength of the joint. You can't go wrong with this kit.

Good quality, nice assortment of sizes, easy to use, works as it was designed to.

works great, price is awesome as well, easy to use, shrinks down to the right size, has the glue to hold in place and seal. All around gread product

Great assortment

Fits well and shrink very well.Glue works to seal the wire.Highly recommend.

Heatshrink tubing work well and has an adhesive that melts and hardens. Note the sizes are not so varied. I now have enough for about 3 generations.

Good set of heat shrink tubing. A good variation of sizes that has fit everything i needed.

It's so nice to have a box of heat shrink instead of searching high and low for just one or two isn't it? I'm building up a solar system and I'm always cutting wires and adding some sort of lug or connector. The nice thing about this kit is the shear number of wraps in the box. I just made some short battery connectors and needed 4 pretty large wraps. The first one I used the entire wrap and then realized that they are so long, I could cut each one in half and have plenty of coverage. Basically instead of 400 pieces for $15, I now have about 800. I probably won't be using some of the sizes but this box will probably last for years and years. They shrink down well even though I used a lighter instead of a heat gun, I just didn't want to dig that out for 4 connections.Overall: if you need good heat shrink tubing, love a good selection and ease of installation, this is for you.
