Shrink-N-Shield® (2X)

 One-Step Shielding and Jacketing Tubing, 2:1 Shrink Ratio, Polyolefin, Double Shield Layer
Shrink-N-Shield (2X) combines two proven technologies into a single, easy to install product for adding EMI shield protection to wire and cable bundles. It is ideal for cables with diameters of 3/4" and less. Makes adding an EMI shield or secondary EMI shielding to wire and cable a snap. This product is comprised of a 2:1 shrink ratio MIL-I-23053/5 heat shrink tubing and Zippertubing’s Z-3250-CN conductive cloth which has outstanding shielding properties. The product uses a double layer of Z-3250-CN shielding cloth which produces an EMI shield with a shield coverage of 99% while still retaining it's very flexible character. The product has an operational temperature range of -55 to 135ºC. This product is supplied in four foot long sticks and has a length tolerance of +/- ½ inch.
