The perfect amount of adhesive which forms nice sealing bead without oozing and dripping. The material has expected uniform wall thickness and is pliable not stiff and brittle.Both the tube and the adhesive are resilient that help resist pull away and peeling when a cable is strained at an angle. The crease disappears and the longitudinal shrinkage is only 10% yet the diameter shrinkage is abundant. The amount of heat needed seems to be a tad greater than most others but manageable without damage to the cable. What was ordered was 3/4” by 4 feet and actually measured 4’ 1/4” long. An anti stick tape was in the interior yet the interior didn’t feel tacky at all. It’s probably keep it apart if stored in a high temperature environment like a tool box in the sun. The surface when shrunk is a satin finish and didn’t seem unusually eager to pickup smudges and it wipes off easily. First impression is, it’s probably the best heat shrink for large cable I’ve ever used, but time will tell. Shown is red 2/0 cable with shrunk yellow 3/4” tube.
