• Reacts only with elemental fluorine and molten alkali metals (e.g., sodium, potassium) at high temperatures, with chemical inertness surpassing traditional plastics. -
Excellent Electrical Insulation
• Stable dielectric constant (2.1), consistent across 60Hz–60MHz frequency range, ensuring reliable high-frequency signal transmission.
• Volume resistivity >10¹⁸Ω·m, surface resistance >10¹³Ω, arc resistance >165 seconds, with no conductive channel formation after damage. -
Low Friction & Non-Stick Properties
• Dynamic friction coefficient 0.2–0.3, hydrophobic surface (contact angle 114°), preventing media adhesion and facilitating cleaning.
• Non-stick characteristics make it suitable for coating transmission rollers and food processing equipment requiring contamination prevention. -
High Transparency & Visibility
• Transparent material allows clear inspection of internal components, aiding in solder point verification, circuit identification, and medium flow monitoring.
• Low refractive index ensures outstanding transparency among plastics, ideal for applications requiring aesthetic appearance. -
Flame Retardancy & Safety
• Meets UL94 V-0 standard, oxygen index >95%, non-combustible in air, and produces no dripping during combustion.
• Suitable for safety-critical applications, such as medical devices and aerospace wiring. -
Mechanical Strength & Wear Resistance
• High tensile strength, abrasion-resistant, and anti-cutting, suitable for mechanical transmission parts or high-friction environments.
• Shrink ratio 1.25:1 or 1.3:1 (model-dependent), tightly conforms to substrates after shrinkage, providing stress relief and sealing. -
Environmental Durability
• ROHS compliant, UV-resistant, and maintains structural integrity in harsh environments.
• Lifespan 5–8 years in normal conditions, with slow performance degradation in extreme environments (e.g., chemical corrosion, high temperature).

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
What is the operating temperature range of FEP heat shrink tubing?
FEP heat shrink tubing supports continuous use from -80°C to 200°C. It can also withstand short-term instantaneous contact up to 300°C, making it ideal for extreme temperature cycling and high-temperature welding joint protection.
What shrink ratio does FEP heat shrink tubing offer?
Depending on the model, FEP heat shrink tubing offers a shrink ratio of 1.25:1 or 1.3:1. After shrinkage, it tightly conforms to substrates, providing effective stress relief and sealing. The shrinkage temperature range is 200°C–250°C.
Is FEP heat shrink tubing suitable for medical and food contact applications?
Yes. FEP tubing is biocompatible and can meet USP Class VI standards for medical devices including catheters and sensors. Its non-stick surface and chemical inertness also make it suitable for food processing equipment requiring contamination prevention.
What flame retardancy rating does FEP heat shrink tubing achieve?
