HX-SCE – High performance Low Fire Hazard identification solution

Thin wall, zero-halogen, low smoke, low toxicity, radiation cross-linked, UV stablised polyolefin heatshrinkable tubing, assembled as cut sleeves organised in a ladder format.

Identification of wires and cables by computer-based printing onto sleeves. Ideal for applications where limited fire hazard characteristics are critical. The zero halogen material coupled with low smoke and low toxic fume emissions made this product ideal for use in enclosed spaces such as mass transit, marine and industrial installations. This product is not recommended where strain relief properties are required.

Features and benefits
  • Low fire hazard properties, low smoke, low toxicity, low flammability – meets Industry Standard BS6853 (1999) Vehicle Category 1a, NF F 16-101, DIN 5510-2 and CEI 20-37-7 09-1997

  • Superb print quality to give crisp clear identification marker sleeve

  • Excellent print permanence when tested in demanding industry related fluids to Industry Standard EN50343

  • Choice of printer options

  • Sleeve diameters from 2.4mm to 38.1mm

  • Sleeves are printable on both sides for ease of identification or addition of additional information to the marker sleeve

    Dimensions are shown for reference purposess only.
