3M 7000133580 Heat Shrink Tubing EPS300 3/16 in 48 in

Product Description

The 3M 7000133580 is a thin-wall heat shrink tubing from the EPS-300 series, designed for environmental protection and electrical insulation in trade applications. Supplied in 48-inch sticks, this tubing provides a reliable moisture and abrasion barrier over wire splices, terminals, and exposed conductors. The EPS-300 series is a dual-wall or thin-wall sleeve rated for demanding conditions where standard vinyl insulation is insufficient. Electricians and HVAC technicians reach for this product when terminations require a clean, durable protective layer that conforms tightly on heat application. Nominal diameter is 3/16 inch, making it suitable for small-gauge wire and connector work.

This tubing is used in residential and light commercial electrical installations, HVAC control wiring, low-voltage circuits, and panel wiring where insulation and moisture ingress protection are required. The 48-inch stick length allows field technicians to cut segments to length as needed, reducing waste on varied job tasks. It is appropriate for indoor and outdoor applications where a protective sleeve over splices or insulated connections is specified.

Key Features

• Thin-wall heat shrink construction conforms tightly to wire and connector profiles on heat application
• Provides environmental protection against moisture, dust, and abrasion
• 3/16 inch nominal diameter suits small-gauge conductors and terminal insulation
• 48-inch stick length allows field cutting to required segment sizes
• EPS-300 series rated for conditions where standard insulation sleeves are insufficient

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose heat shrink insulation sleeve for small-gauge wire terminations, splices, and exposed conductors in electrical, HVAC, and low-voltage wiring applications.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed electricians or HVAC technicians following applicable NEC guidelines. De-energize all circuits completely before applying heat shrink tubing over any conductor or termination. Use a heat gun set to the appropriate temperature range for the EPS-300 series material — do not use an open flame, as uncontrolled heat can damage the tubing or adjacent wiring. Confirm full shrinkage and proper adhesion around the protected area before returning the circuit to service.
