General Instructions
Use a propane (preferred) or butane gas torch.
Adjust the torch to obtain a soft blue flame with a yellow tip. Pencil-like blue flames should be avoided.
Keep the torch aimed in the shrink direction to preheat the material. Keep the flame moving continuously to avoid scorching the material. Clean and degrease all parts that will come into contact with adhesive. If a solvent is used follow the manufacturer’s handling instructions.
Tubing should be cut smoothly with a sharp knife leaving no jagged edges. Start shrinking the tubing at the position recommended in the instruction.
Ensure that the tubing is shrunk smoothly all round before continuing along the cable. Tubing should be smooth and wrinkle free with inner components clearly defined.
