3M 7000133576 Heat Shrink Polyolefin Tubing 3/8 in 48 in

Product Description

The 3M 7000133576 is a flexible polyolefin heat shrink tubing from the EPS200 series, designed to protect electronic components, wire splices, and bundled wire runs. When heat is applied, the tubing shrinks around the substrate to form a tight, conforming sleeve that resists abrasion, moisture, and environmental contaminants. At 3/8 inch diameter and 48 inches in length, this single piece of tubing gives electricians and electronics technicians a workable length for a wide range of wire management tasks. The flexible polyolefin construction maintains integrity across temperature cycling common in electrical enclosures and field wiring applications.

This tubing is suited for residential and commercial electrical work, panel wiring, wire harness fabrication, and repair of spliced conductors. It is commonly used by electricians, electronics technicians, and control panel assemblers when reliable insulation and mechanical protection are needed over splice points or terminal connections. The 48-inch length allows the installer to cut sections to exact job requirements, reducing waste on custom-length applications.

Key Features

• Flexible polyolefin construction conforms tightly to wire and component profiles after heat application
• 3/8 inch nominal diameter accommodates common wire bundle and splice sizes
• 48-inch length provides a full, cuttable stick for multiple installations from a single piece
• Protects against abrasion, moisture, and environmental exposure at wire splice and termination points
• EPS200 series rated for demanding electrical and electronic applications

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and general-purpose heat shrink sleeve for electrical wire splices, terminal insulation, and wire bundling in residential and commercial control wiring applications.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed electricians or qualified technicians following applicable NEC guidelines. De-energize all circuits before applying heat shrink tubing over live splice points or terminations. Use a calibrated heat gun rather than an open flame to apply uniform heat and achieve consistent shrink without damaging the tubing or underlying conductors. Cut tubing to the required length before placement, and ensure adequate overlap beyond the splice or exposed conductor on both ends.
