ES2000
Flame-retardant, adhesive-lined heat-shrinkable
tubing (extended temperature range)
Adhesive-lined ES2000 heat-
shrinkable tubing is specifically
designed to meet automotive industry
requirements for environmental
sealing and electrical insulation of
automotive wire splices, terminations,
and components.
ES2000 tubing has an outer jacket
of radiation-crosslinked, semirigid
polyolefin. Flame-retardant and
mechanically tough, the jacket
provides strain relief and abrasion
protection of wire splices and
mechanically sensitive components.
The inner layer of the tubing is a
unique hot-melt adhesive, specially
formulated to adhere to all major
types of automotive wire insulation
and to perform well at an extended
temperature range. The adhesive
forms an effective barrier against
automotive fluids and moisture,
helping to protect the harness
from the effects of corrosion and
water wicking.
Because ES2000 tubing has a high
shrink ratio, only a few sizes are
needed to cover a wide range of
splice and component diameters.
ES2000 tubing dimensions have been
engineered to provide low-cost
sealing solutions on multiple-wire
splices (up to seven wires per side),
using standard Tyco Electronics
application equipment.
