This set has 580 PVC tubes in several sizes and colours, organised in a box.<\/p>\n<p>Having several diameters to hand lets you cover everything from a receiver\u2019s thin wires to thick battery leads, and the colours help you tell positive, negative and signal wires apart.<\/p>\n<h3>Set specifications<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Quantity: 580 tubes<\/li>\n<li>Material: PVC<\/li>\n<li>Shrink ratio: 2:1<\/li>\n<li>Several diameters and colours, in a box with compartments<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Besides insulating joints, heat shrink is useful for bundling wires, protecting antennas from rubbing on the frame and colour-marking batteries or leads so you can recognise them at a glance at the field.<\/p>\n<h3>How to use them<\/h3>\n<p>Pick a tube a little wider than the joint and slide it onto the wire before soldering. Then move it over the joint and heat it with a heat gun, or carefully with a lighter, turning it so it shrinks evenly.<\/p>\n<h3>Frequently asked questions about heat shrink tubes<\/h3>\n<h4>How much do they shrink?<\/h4>\n<p>Down to half their original diameter, a 2:1 ratio.<\/p>\n<h4>Are they suitable for battery leads?<\/h4>\n<p>Yes, the set includes large diameters to cover XT60 and XT30 connector terminals.<\/p>\n<h3>More for your drone<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/dronefpvshop.com\/en\/herramientas-accesorios\/\">Tools and accessories<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/dronefpvshop.com\/en\/shop\/todos-los-productos\/kit-de-conectores-xt60\/\">XT60 connector kit<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/dronefpvshop.com\/en\/plugs-and-connectors\/\">Cables and connectors<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/dronefpvshop.com\/en\/guias-fpv\/\">FPV guides<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Box with 580 PVC heat shrink tubes in several diameters and colours.
