Cold shrink / Heat shrink: two methods for protecting cables and wires. And it’s important to understand how they differ so you can choose the right one for your needs. In this article, we will explore the pros and cons of both methods of cable covering Volsun cold shrinking and heat shrinking. We will look at their ease of use and what they cost.
Cold shrink employs rubber sleeves that are stretched and slide over cables. They slump into place on their own. Heat shrink operates differently; it requires heat usually from a heat gun that causes the tubing to shrink around the cable.
Where the cables will be used also affects the Volsun cold shrink sleeving vs heat shrink choice. Not only are cold shrink sleeves robust and durable they are also ideal for outdoor applications due to their resistance to extreme weather conditions. In extreme heat or cold heat shrink sleeves can be damaged.
Cold shrink wins when it comes to how simple they are to set up. Even a cold shrink tube sleeve can be installed without burning. But when using heat shrink, you need to be careful of the heat source so you don’t overheat the cable.
Whether you need cold shrink or heat shrink sleeves is up to you. If you need something that’s fast and easy to install, cold shrink is the way to go.” If you want something more heat tolerant and even customizable heat shrink might be the way to go.
Price is another key consideration to keep in mind. Volsun cold shrink sleeve may be more expensive at first, but they have a longer lifespan. This can ultimately save you money. Heat shrink tubing is cheaper to purchase but it may require more frequent replacement.
