What Is Heat Shrink Tubing?

Heat shrink tubing is a flexible, polymer-based material that shrinks when heat is applied. It is used to insulate, protect and strengthen the electrical connections and wiring found within cleaning machines. When fitted correctly, it provides a tight, sealed covering that prevents moisture, dust and general wear from damaging cables and terminals. For cleaning environments where machines are used daily and exposed to water, detergents and vibration, using proper heat shrink is essential for maintaining safety and reliability.

Why Choose Heat Shrink Tubing for Numatic Machines?

Numatic equipment is known for its robust engineering and long service life. However, even the best-designed machines depend on properly insulated wiring to function safely. Our range of heat shrink tubing has been carefully chosen to meet Numatic’s high build standards. The material offers superior resistance to abrasion, cleaning chemicals and temperature changes. By replacing worn insulation and reinforcing vulnerable connections, you can prevent unnecessary downtime and costly repairs.

Typical uses include repairing vacuum cleaner cables, sealing motor connections or bundling wire harnesses to prevent tangling. Using the correct diameter and shrink ratio ensures a snug fit over connectors, providing a professional finish and improved safety.

Product Quality and Compatibility

Every piece of heat shrink available from Express Cleaning Supplies is sourced from trusted manufacturers known for consistent quality control. The tubing is compatible with Numatic models across the commercial cleaning range. Whether you are maintaining Henry, Hetty or industrial scrubber driers and polishers, you will find the right size and specification for your application.

Selecting the appropriate tubing is straightforward. Measure the diameter of the cable before shrinkage and select a size that will fit tightly after heating. The material is flexible enough to work around bends and joints, ensuring a secure grip throughout the covered area. Once heated with an appropriate tool such as a heat gun, the tubing contracts evenly and forms a smooth, professional seal without cracking or splitting.

Benefits of Using High Quality Heat Shrink Tubing

1. Enhanced safety – Prevents electrical shorts and reduces the risk of electric shock.
2. Extended equipment life – Protects sensitive wires from corrosion, vibration and mechanical stress.
3. Professional appearance – Creates tidy and uniform cable finishes, improving machine presentation.
4. Resistance to cleaning agents – Retains insulation integrity even in environments that use detergents and disinfectants.
5. Cost-effective maintenance – Simple to fit and economical compared with replacing complete wiring assemblies.

Regular inspection and replacement of damaged or frayed insulation should be part of every maintenance routine. By keeping adequate stock of heat shrink tubing, cleaning teams can quickly respond to small faults before they develop into major issues.

How to Apply Heat Shrink Tubing

1. Prepare the area – Disconnect the machine from the power source. Clean and dry the cable section you need to protect.
2. Measure and cut – Cut a length of tubing slightly longer than the exposed area.
3. Fit into position – Slide the tubing over the connection or joint ensuring it covers the entire section.
4. Apply heat – Use a heat gun or similar tool, moving it evenly along the tubing until it shrinks snugly around the cable. Avoid excessive heating that could damage insulation or surrounding materials.
5. Inspect – Once cool, check for a firm, smooth finish and ensure there are no gaps or bubbles.

This straightforward process can be completed in minutes and helps restore wiring integrity to manufacturer standards.
