Description
HEAT SHRINK 4″(100mm) DIA 162mm FLAT WIDTH 2:1 RATE ( B08GJWVX72) — BOLTON SKU 55392.
Large-bore heat shrink 4 100mm dia sleeving explained
This line is heat-shrinkable sleeving supplied in a large bore: a nominal 100 mm (4 in) internal diameter in the as-supplied state, corresponding to the stated 162 mm lay-flat width. The 2:1 shrink ratio means the sleeving recovers to approximately half its supplied diameter when heated, so a single size covers a range of bundle and joint diameters within that band. Sleeving at this diameter sits at the outer-jacketing end of the heat-shrink range rather than the wire-marking end, and is normally cut to length from a roll or supplied as pre-cut pieces. No manufacturer part number is held against this line, so wall thickness, base polymer, continuous-temperature rating, shrink temperature and any flame-retardance or fluid-resistance approvals are not stated on this page. Those characteristics vary between manufacturers at this diameter and are confirmed against the specific make and batch offered at quotation.

Typical applications
Large-bore heat-shrink sleeving of this family is used as an outer jacket over cable bundles and harness breakouts, and to cover joints, splices and terminations on heavy conductors. It is also used for mechanical and environmental covering of pipework, handles, bars and busbars in workshop and MRO environments. Recovery is normally carried out with a controlled hot-air gun rather than an open flame.
