3M 7010349733 Heat Shrink Tubing 3/16 in Black 250 Ft

Product Description

The 3M 7010349733 is a flame-retardant polyolefin heat shrink tubing engineered for demanding electrical insulation and wire bundling applications. Sold as a 250-foot spool, this tubing carries the FP-301VW designation, which shares the same balanced electrical, physical, and chemical properties as standard FP-301 tubing while adding superior flame resistance. It is rated for continuous operation from -55 degrees C (-67 degrees F) to 135 degrees C (275 degrees F) and can withstand brief exposure to 300 degrees C (572 degrees F). The minimum shrink temperature is 100 degrees C (212 degrees F). Electricians and wire harness technicians reach for this tubing when a job calls for reliable insulation with added flame protection.

This tubing is suited for residential, commercial, and industrial electrical work where flame resistance is a code or specification requirement. Typical applications include wire splicing, terminal insulation, connector strain relief, and cable bundling in control panels, junction boxes, and equipment wiring. The 3/16-inch diameter and black color make it a common choice for automotive, aerospace, and industrial wiring assemblies where both identification and protection are priorities.

Key Features

• Flame-retardant construction engineered for superior fire resistance compared to standard polyolefin tubing
• Continuous service rating from -55 degrees C to 135 degrees C (-67 degrees F to 275 degrees F)
• Withstands elevated temperatures to 300 degrees C (572 degrees F) for brief periods
• Minimum shrink temperature of 100 degrees C (212 degrees F) for controlled installation
• 250-foot spool format reduces waste and speeds production on high-volume wiring jobs
• Black coloring provides UV contrast for routing identification in complex wiring assemblies

Compatibility

Designed as a direct FP-301VW series heat shrink tubing in 3/16-inch diameter, suitable for use wherever a flame-retardant polyolefin shrink sleeve of this size is specified in electrical or industrial wiring applications.

Installation Notes

Heat shrink tubing of this type is installed by licensed electricians or qualified wiring technicians following applicable NEC guidelines. De-energize and lock out all circuits before applying tubing to conductors or terminals. Use a calibrated heat gun set to an appropriate temperature to achieve uniform shrink without scorching the tubing or adjacent components. Avoid open-flame heat sources, which can cause uneven shrinkage and damage the flame-retardant properties of the material.
