Value Collection BD23543 Heat Shrink Sleeve 6 in Black

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION BD23543 is a black heat-shrink sleeve designed for insulating, protecting, and bundling electrical wire terminations and splices. With a pre-shrink inside diameter of 0.5 inches and an overall length of 6 inches, this sleeve fits wire gauges from 4 AWG minimum to 2 AWG maximum. Heat is applied uniformly to activate shrinkage, creating a snug, protective barrier around the conductor. Electricians and low-voltage technicians use these sleeves during panel work, junction connections, and field repairs where a clean, durable insulation finish is required.

This sleeve is suited for residential and light commercial electrical applications where wire protection and insulation continuity are needed at splices, lugs, or terminal connections. The 6-inch length provides adequate coverage for most standard termination scenarios without trimming. The black color aids in conductor identification in multi-wire assemblies. This product is sold individually but requires a minimum order quantity of 10 units per purchase.

Key Features

• Pre-shrink inside diameter of 0.5 inches accommodates 2 to 4 AWG wire
• 6-inch overall length provides full coverage at terminations and splices
• Black color for conductor identification in multi-wire runs
• Heat-activated shrink conforms tightly to wire and connector surfaces
• Lightweight at 0.01 pounds for easy handling and storage in the field

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement heat-shrink sleeve compatible with 2 AWG to 4 AWG wire sizes in standard electrical insulation and bundling applications.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a licensed electrician or qualified low-voltage technician. De-energize all circuits and verify zero voltage with a meter before applying the sleeve to any conductor. Use a heat gun to apply even, controlled heat along the sleeve length to activate shrinkage — avoid open flame, which can damage the sleeve or adjacent insulation. Follow applicable NEC requirements for insulation type and conductor protection at all termination points.
