3M 7100024102 Flame Retardant Heat Shrink Tubing 1/2 in Black

Product Description

The 3M 7100024102 is a flame-retardant polyolefin heat shrink tubing designed for electrical insulation, bundling, and protection in demanding environments. It delivers the same balanced electrical, physical, and chemical performance as standard FP-301 tubing while adding enhanced flame resistance for applications where fire safety compliance is a priority. Rated for continuous operation from -55 degrees C to 135 degrees C, it can withstand brief exposure up to 300 degrees C. Electricians and equipment assemblers use this tubing for wire harnessing, terminal protection, and connector sealing in industrial, commercial, and OEM applications.

This tubing is suited for use in electrical panel wiring, control cabinets, wire harness fabrication, and similar installations where both insulation integrity and flame resistance are required. It is supplied on a 200-foot spool, making it practical for shop use or field service kits. The minimum shrink temperature is 100 degrees C, allowing activation with standard heat guns. Applications span commercial construction, industrial equipment maintenance, and OEM manufacturing environments where UL-recognized materials are commonly specified.

Key Features

• Flame-retardant construction engineered for superior fire resistance compared to standard polyolefin tubing
• Continuous operating range from -55 degrees C to 135 degrees C
• Short-term temperature tolerance up to 300 degrees C
• Minimum shrink temperature of 100 degrees C for compatibility with standard heat guns
• Supplied on a 200-foot spool for high-volume or repeated use
• Black color for UV resistance and identification in wiring assemblies

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style flame-retardant heat shrink tubing solution for electrical insulation and wire protection applications requiring a 1/2 inch diameter shrink tubing with enhanced flame resistance properties.

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 wiring or terminals. Use a calibrated heat gun to apply even heat around the tubing circumference, starting from the center and working outward to avoid trapped air pockets. Do not use open flame torches, as uncontrolled heat can damage the tubing or underlying conductors.
