Value Collection BD-23633-4 Heat Shrink Sleeve 3/8 in

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION BD-23633-4 is a black heat-shrink sleeve designed to protect, insulate, and bundle wires, cables, and tubing in electrical and mechanical applications. Measuring 48 inches in overall length with a 3/8 inch inside diameter before shrinking, this sleeve contracts when heat is applied to form a tight, secure fit around the substrate. Electricians, HVAC technicians, and industrial maintenance professionals use heat-shrink tubing during wire termination, splice protection, and cable management tasks. The sleeve is sized for moderate-diameter conductors and is suitable for both field service and panel work.

This heat-shrink sleeve is used in residential and commercial electrical installations, HVAC control wiring, panel builds, and general maintenance applications wherever insulation or strain relief is needed. The 48 inch length allows a single piece to cover long runs or be cut down to multiple shorter sections depending on the task. It is equally suited to low-voltage control circuits and standard branch-circuit conductor terminations.

Key Features

• 3/8 inch inside diameter before shrinking accommodates a range of wire and cable gauges
• 48 inch overall length offers flexibility for full-length runs or cut-to-length sections
• Black color provides a clean, finished appearance and aids in heat absorption during shrinking
• Heat-shrink construction creates a snug, protective fit once applied
• Lightweight at 0.01 pounds for easy handling and storage on the job

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose heat-shrink sleeve suitable for wire and cable insulation, splice protection, and bundling applications across electrical, HVAC, and mechanical service work.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed electricians or qualified technicians following applicable NEC guidelines. De-energize all circuits completely before applying heat-shrink sleeving to any conductor or termination. Use a heat gun at the appropriate distance to apply even heat along the sleeve length, working from one end to the other to avoid air pockets. Do not use an open flame to shrink the sleeve, as uneven heat can damage both the sleeve and the underlying insulation.
