D-SCE heat-shrinkable sleeves
Thin wall, thermally-stabilised radiation cross-linked polyolefin heat-shrinkable
tubing, assembled as organized cut sleeves in a “ladder” configuration.
3:1 shrink ratio.
Identification of wires and cables by computer-based printing onto sleeves.
Sleeves can also provide terminal insulation and strain relief. Suitable for
applications where exposure to organic fluids, especially oils, is required for
long periods at elevated temperatures. Especially suited to rail rolling stock and
aerospace applications. Printed sleeve meets the requirements of SNCF
specification NF F 00608 Categories A & H and BS EN50343 Appendix H and
also meets the material and performance requirements of SAE-AMS-DTL-
23053/6 Class 1.

Some types of neoprene insulation used in jackets contain additives that can migrate to the surface and discolor the polyolefin
D-SCE sleeves. Any discoloration is dependent on the composition of the neoprene, combined with application conditions. Users
should independently evaluate the suitability of D-SCE sleeves for applications involving neoprene-jacketed cables.
