Zeus Sub-Lite-Wall™ heat shrink tubing has been engineered to produce nominal wall thicknesses of 0.005″ (0.127 mm) and below, with tolerances of ± 0.0005″ (± 0.0127 mm) available in most sizes. This super-thin-walled heat shrink fills a critical need for customers demanding thin walls and precise tolerances for their specialized applications.
PTFE Sub-Lite-Wall™ Heat Shrink
The unique properties of PTFE, including its high lubricity, chemical resistance, and broad temperature tolerance, have resulted in its widespread usage in a number of advanced applications. Whether for lining catheters, encapsulating guidewires, or covering sensors and other critical components, Zeus’ PTFE Sub-Lite-Wall™ heat shrink combines super-thin walls with excellent mechanical properties for dependable device performance.
PET Sub-Lite-Wall™ Heat Shrink
Combining super-thin walls with high tensile strength and excellent dielectric properties, PET Sub-Lite-Wall™ heat shrink delivers versatile performance across a broad range of applications, including braid termination, shaft reinforcement, and component insulation. With consistent shrink behavior and dependable dimensional control, Zeus PET Sub-Lite-Wall™ heat shrink helps support tight-tolerance assemblies without adding unnecessary bulk.
