Like heat shrink tubing but not a tube.
Or look around for a heat shrink Tape? There is such a critter... That is what I was asking about in the original post. Got a name for it or who makes it? Richard Google turned up lotso hits. Here are the top three... http://solutions.3m.com/wps/portal/3...s/Heat_Shrink/ http://www.info-central.org/construction_heattape.shtml http://www.shrinkit-inc.com/Shrink-wrap-heat-tape.htm |

What I'm using in for is to cover the "tail" of
the swaged control wires going to the rudder and elevator. I planned to use heat shrink tubeing but was thinking so much about putting on the Nico collars that I forgot about it. It was the first time I'd ever done it.- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - Check West Coast Marine, The Sail boat clan use a tape that sticks to it's self for this - and other things. Works pretty well................. |

Go here http://www.mcmaster.com/, and start at catalogue page 777. Shrink ratios up to 6:1, colors, clear, thick-wall, wrap-around etc. Same-day shipping. But that high shrink-rate stuff is pricey.

Is there an equivalent that will allow me to wrap the item and then heat shrink it? Look here http://www.smallparts.com/ any size you need but a local electrical supply house will be able to sell you want you need also. |
