Review on XHF 205 PCS 3.5" 3:1 Adhesive-Lined Heat Shrink Tubing Kit For Auto And Marine Applications by Dino Wilson
Shrink: yes Glue inside: ?
Smallest size shrank down to 24 gage hook up wire. Clarity is good. Used my HF heat gun for up to 600 degree heat - keep moving the gun to heat to fully shrink but not burn; point at all sides. Use a hair dryer? - silly, never found one with high enough heat; butane lighter is better than hair dryer in a pinch. No sign of the adhesive that often resembles hot melt glue on inside of tubes or the usual desired bulge out the ends. Shrank well, twisted soldered splice trapped well. Delivery was prompt, no damage. Included storage box was fine and very full.
Pros
- Tough stuff, high temp heat shrink is bullet proof. Used it in an under water led application.
Cons
- Adhesive may not fully adhere in extreme temperatures
