FAQ
Q: What does a 2:1 shrink ratio mean?
A: It means the tubing will shrink to half its original diameter when heat is applied.
Q: Can I use a regular hairdryer to shrink the tubing?
A: While a hairdryer may work for smaller tubing, we recommend using a heat gun for optimal results.
Q: Is this tubing flame-retardant?
A: Yes, the tubing is self-extinguishing and meets industry flammability standards.
Q: Do you offer discounts for bulk purchases?
A: Yes, please contact our sales department on 0161 874 1480 or email info@accablesolutions.com
