TE Connectivity (TE) manufactures one of the world s largest ranges of heat-shrinkable tubing that provides cable protection, insulation, environmental sealing and strain relief. HFT5000 heat-shrinkable fabric with a 2:1 shrink ratio is a halogen-free product, woven from polyethylene/ polyester materials which provides excellent abrasion resistance for components such as rubber hoses, plastic pipes and harness wiring bundles. The tightly woven filaments promote flexibility and easy installation onto irregular substrates such as bent hoses, yet provide resistance to trapping water, heat and humidity
