3M 7000133598 Heat Shrink Tubing EPS300 0.5 in 48 in Black

Product Description

The 3M 7000133598 is a heat shrink thin-wall tubing stick from the EPS-300 series, designed for environmental protection and electrical insulation on wire and cable assemblies. Each stick measures 48 inches in length with a 0.5-inch unshrunk diameter and ships in black. The EPS-300 series uses a thin-wall construction suited for applications where space is limited and a clean, low-profile sleeve is required. Licensed electricians and wire harness technicians use this tubing to seal and protect conductors from moisture, abrasion, and contaminants in both residential and commercial wiring environments.

This tubing is appropriate for use in panel wiring, wire bundling, terminal protection, and general electrical insulation tasks. The 48-inch stick format allows field technicians to cut sections to length as needed, reducing waste on varied conductor sizes. It is commonly used in electrical, HVAC control wiring, and light industrial applications where a consistent, durable sleeve is required over terminated or spliced conductors.

Key Features

• EPS-300 thin-wall construction for low-profile insulation and environmental protection
• 48-inch stick length allows flexible field cutting to required sleeve lengths
• 0.5-inch nominal unshrunk diameter suits a range of conductor and terminal sizes
• Black color for standard conductor identification and UV concealment
• Sold individually per stick; minimum order quantity of 12 per case

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and general-use heat shrink sleeve for wire and cable protection in electrical and low-voltage 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 to any conductor or terminal. Use a calibrated heat gun set to the appropriate temperature range for the tubing series — avoid open flame, which can damage the sleeve or surrounding insulation. Slide the tubing over the conductor or splice before terminating where possible, as retrofitting onto completed terminations may not be feasible.
