Flexible insulating sleeving - Part 3: Specifications for individual types of sleeving - Sheet 211: Heat-shrinkable sleeving, semi-rigid polyolefin, shrink ratio 2:1
Abstract
This part of IEC 60684 specifies the requirements for four types of heat-shrinkable tubing made of semi-rigid polyolefin with a shrink ratio of 2:1, suitable for temperatures up to 135 °C. – Type A: Standard type, flame-retardant, opaque colors; – Type B: Standard type, non-flame-retardant, translucent; – Type C: Liquid resistant, flame retardant, opaque colors; – Type D: Liquid resistant, non-flame retardant, translucent. Tubes of this type are usually supplied with inner diameters up to 12.7 mm and in the following colors: black, white, red, yellow, blue, and translucent. Hose sizes or colors other than those specifically listed in this standard can be provided according to customer requirements. These types must be considered to comply with this standard if they meet the property requirements listed in Tables 2 and 3 and those listed in Table 4 for types C and D, with the exception of dimensions. Materials that comply with this standard meet recognized levels of performance. However, the selection of a material by a user for a particular application should be based on the actual requirements for adequate performance in that application and not on this standard alone.
