Value Collection BD23633 Heat Shrink Sleeve 3/8 in 6 in

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION BD23633 is a black heat shrink sleeve designed to protect wire splices, terminals, and conductor bundles in electrical and low-voltage wiring applications. With a pre-shrink inside diameter of 3/8 inch and an overall length of 6 inches, this sleeve fits a range of wire gauges and connector sizes commonly encountered in HVAC control wiring, panel work, and general electrical service. Heat is applied to activate shrinkage, creating a snug, insulating fit around the covered component. Electricians and HVAC technicians use heat shrink sleeves to provide strain relief, moisture resistance, and electrical insulation at connection points.

This sleeve suits residential and light commercial electrical work where wire terminations need mechanical protection and basic environmental resistance. Typical applications include insulating butt connectors, covering exposed conductor ends, bundling multi-wire runs, and protecting splices in control circuits, low-voltage thermostat wiring, and appliance leads. The black color aids identification in multi-wire installations.

Key Features

• 3/8 inch inside diameter before shrinking fits a range of standard wire gauges and connector bodies
• 6 inch overall length provides adequate coverage for most splice and termination points
• Black color for easy identification in multi-conductor wiring runs
• Heat activated shrink profile creates a secure, conforming fit around covered components
• Lightweight construction at 0.01 pounds per piece

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose heat shrink sleeve suitable for use with standard electrical wire terminations, butt connectors, and conductor splices in residential and light commercial wiring applications.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed electricians or qualified HVAC technicians. De-energize and lock out the circuit before working on any wiring connection. Slide the sleeve over the wire or connector before making the final termination, then apply a heat gun evenly along the sleeve length to activate shrinkage. Avoid open flame tools, as uncontrolled heat can damage the sleeve or adjacent insulation.
