TE Connectivity VOLINSU tubing EVSW
TE Connectivity announces VOLINSU tubing EVSW
The VOLINSU tubing EVSW heat shrink has been designed from a flame retardant material with excellent electrical properties, and excellent insulation combined with the benefits of a heat shrink tube to allow use over both simple and intricate shapes. Based on other automotive applications the materials selected have proven use in many applications, creating a strong performance base to create a dedicated solution for the electric vehicle market.
EVSW tubing can be installed using conventional application equipment such as a hot air gun, a conveyor oven or air circulation oven. The product has a low shrink temperature so excessive heating is not required as it can cause damage to the product. Finally the EVSW tubing can be used in applications up to 135°C (275°F), with a short time excursion of up to 200°C (392°F).
