BSTS/BSTS-FR
Applications
BSTS heat-shrinkable tubing
is made of a rugged poly-
mer that resists moisture,
fungus, and weathering. It
also has excellent electrical
properties. This tubing is
useful in applications where
insulation, abrasion resist-
ance, and strain relief are
important. When used with
sealant tape (S-1305 for
flame-retardant or S-1278
for non-flame-retardant), it
can provide a watertight
system in nonpressurized
applications.
