Heat Shrink Braided Sleeving


Tool Handle Grips

What do you do when your hand tools lose their dipped-plastic handle coating and leave you with uncomfortable bare metal? Whatever you do, don't throw them away. Heat-shrinkable braided sleeving can easily be shrunk around tool handles to provide comfortable grips that you'll hardly be able to tell apart from the originals. To ensure that they won't budge, we recommend using adhesive-lined heat shrink, which has an interior coating of extremely strong glue that melts when heat is applied and cools to a long-lasting bond after shrinking is complete.


Repair Your Glasses

What do you do when the arm of your eyeglasses snaps?  Don't worry, because an extremely effective repair is only seconds away. Just push the broken ends back together, slip a piece of heat-shrinkable braided sleeving around them, and shrink it to size. The resulting splice may not be a permanent fix, but it will leave your glasses solid enough to wear comfortably.


Heat Shrink End Caps on Furniture

The most obvious use for fabric heat shrink tubing end caps is to protect wire splices from moisture and corrosion, and also you could use them to seal the feet of your furniture and protect your floors.
