Hot Melt Adhesive for use with Heat Shrinkable Tubing

Ethylenevinylacetate (EVA) hot melt adhesive wrap

Have you ever had an application that required heat shrink tubing with an adhesive lining, but it's not availble? This new product is perfect for those applications. Traditionally, PVC heat shrink tubing is not available with an adhesive lining. Engineers and assemblers have had to use hot melt glue guns and messy two-part epoxies to waterproof PVC heat shrink tubing. That does not have to be done anymore!

Have you ever found that standard 3:1 adhesive lined heat shrink tubing is just too thick compared to regular 2:1 Polyolefin? Did you ever wish that the adhesive layer was thinner? Now we have a solution for you! With a thickness up to 1/3 the thickness of the adhesive layer in adhesive lined heat shrink, you can have a true thin walled adhesive lined heat shrink.

Just simply wrap our adhesive lined heat shrinkable tape around your wire in an overlapping spiral fashion, like you would normal electrical tape. Slide your heat shirnk tubing over the wire and shrink the tubing using our economical VT-1100 shrink wrap heat gun. The adhesive will melt when the heat is applied, and solidify when cooled. Now you have a waterproof seal!

The minimum melting point of the hot melt adhesive is 95°C (204°F).
