About the M23053/5-109-4 Heat Shrink Tubing
M23053/5-109-4 belongs to the MIL-DTL-23053/5 family of heat-shrinkable insulation sleeving: flexible crosslinked polyolefin tubing with a nominal 2:1 shrink ratio. Read against published M23053/5 cross-reference charts, the dash-100 series identifies Class 1 flame-retardant material, dash number 109 identifies the 3/4 in nominal supplied size, and the trailing colour designator 4 identifies yellow — which agrees with the colour in the item name. The size shown below follows the part number; the 1/4 in figure that appears in the catalogue name does not agree with the 109 size designator, so BOLTON will confirm the size supplied against your enquiry rather than publish a disputed dimension. The item is catalogued as thin wall and fluid resistant with a 125 °C rating. Sleeving of this family insulates, bundles and colour-identifies wiring, splices and terminations wherever a controlled-shrink, non-adhesive-lined sleeve is called for.

Typical applications
At the 3/4 in size this sleeving covers larger conductor bundles, connector backshell transitions and multi-wire breakouts rather than single conductors. Yellow is conventionally reserved for circuit identification and cautionary marking, so this size and colour together are used to flag a specific loom inside a dense harness run. It is a standing consumable in airframe and UAV harness build, and in MRO rework where a whole bundle has to be re-sleeved after repair.
