3M 7100020159 FP-301 Heat Shrink Tubing 1/8 in Blue 500 Ft

Product Description

The 3M 7100020159 is a thin-wall polyolefin heat shrink tubing sold on a 500-foot bulk spool. Designated as FP-301, this tubing delivers a reliable balance of electrical insulation, physical durability, and chemical resistance suited for wiring protection, bundling, and strain relief in industrial and military environments. The 1/8-inch recovered diameter makes it well-suited for small-gauge conductors and terminal insulation. It ships in blue for color-coded circuit identification. Electricians, aerospace technicians, and field service crews working with wire harnesses and cable assemblies are the primary installers.

FP-301 thin-wall heat shrink tubing is used across a broad range of applications including industrial control wiring, military electronics, panel builds, and general electrical assembly work. The bulk 500-foot spool format is practical for shops and contractors who perform high-volume wire termination and harness fabrication rather than occasional repair work. The blue color aids in visual identification of circuits or conductors within a wiring system.

Key Features

• Thin-wall FP-301 polyolefin construction balances flexibility with electrical insulation performance
• 1/8-inch diameter sizing fits small-gauge conductors and terminal ends
• Blue color coding supports organized, color-identified wiring installations
• 500-foot bulk spool reduces per-foot cost for high-volume harness and panel work
• Rated for industrial and military application environments

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose thin-wall heat shrink tubing for industrial wiring, military electronics, and electrical assembly applications requiring 1/8-inch recovered diameter insulation.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by electricians or electronics technicians using a calibrated heat gun set to the appropriate shrink temperature for FP-301 polyolefin material. De-energize all circuits completely before applying heat shrink over conductors, terminals, or splices. Avoid open-flame heat sources, as uncontrolled heat can damage the tubing or underlying insulation. Follow applicable NEC guidelines and any project-specific military or industrial wiring specifications.
