Heat-shrinkable Tubing
Applications
RPPM is a flexible, heat-
shrinkable, dual wall tubing
with an integrally bonded
meltable adhesive liner.
Available in clear and
black, the tough outer
jacket offers excellent
mechanical strength. RPPM
is used for moisture-proof
encapsulation of a wide
variety of components. In
particular, it adheres well to
PVC. The high-shrink-ratio
allows RPPM to be used
with a range of dimensions.
Clear RPPM offers excellent
clarity for protection of sub-
strates that may need to be
inspected during service.
Black RPPM has a high
gloss finish suitable for
cosmetic applications.
