There are different types of heat shrink sleeves depending on the application. Printable sleeves are used for marking and identifying wires, while standard sleeves mainly serve for insulation and protection. Printable sleeves are widely used in control cabinets and help organize wiring clearly.
Printable heat shrink sleeves make wire and cable identification easier and long-lasting in industrial installations. After heating, the sleeve shrinks tightly around the wire so the marking remains clearly readable. This helps technicians quickly identify wiring, simplifying maintenance and repairs. Additionally, the sleeve provides protection against wear, moisture, and other environmental factors.
Our printable heat shrink sleeves for wires and cables, also known as sleeves, are the most popular form of wire marking. With a heat shrink printer, you can easily print and mark your sleeves. Our ATP-300 Pro always delivers a perfect result. It’s no coincidence that 95% of our customers choose this label printer. This industrial desktop printer is not only suitable for heat shrink sleeves, but can print nearly all industrial labels in our assortment.
The right sleeve depends on the application and specific requirements. Important factors include the shrink ratio, material, and whether the sleeve is flame-retardant, halogen-free, or designed for low smoke emission. Certifications may also be important, for example in the aerospace, defense, or railway industries.
ADS Sleeves
ADS Sleeves are available in various colors and sizes. They have a 3:1 shrink ratio and are halogen-free, low smoke, and flame-retardant. In combination with a cable tag for sleeves, they can also be used for wires or cables thicker than the maximum diameter.
ADSC Sleeves
Our ADSC Sleeves share the same properties and are also halogen-free, low smoke, and flame-retardant. In addition, they meet multiple certifications for aerospace, defense, and railway applications. Sleeve sizes vary depending on the wire or cable diameter they are designed for. Our heat shrink sleeves are available in multiple sizes and have a 3:1 shrink ratio, allowing them to adapt to the wire or cable. They are suitable for a wide range of diameters.
The dimensions of a heat shrink sleeve vary depending on the wire or cable diameter they are intended for. Heat shrink sleeves are available in various sizes and feature a 3:1 shrink ratio, allowing them to conform to the shape of the wire or cable. Our sleeves are suitable for a wide range of diameters.
