Panduit H100X025H1C White Heat Shrink Tubing — 1/8" Diameter, 22-18 AWG, 100 per Cassette

The Panduit H100X025H1C delivers reliable, professional-grade insulation and protection for electrical connections. Crafted from white, heat‑shrinkable polyolefin, this tubing is designed to fit conductors in the 22-18 AWG range, making it an essential part of any electronics, automotive, or industrial wiring kit. With a convenient 100 pieces per cassette, it’s built to streamline workflows, cut waste, and keep spare lengths readily accessible for quick prototyping, repairs, and field service. The white color offers a clean, polished look that enhances organization and readability in harnesses, panels, and junctions, helping technicians quickly identify circuits and maintain tidy, professional installations. Beyond simple insulation, this tubing provides a durable barrier against abrasion, moisture, and environmental contaminants, contributing to longer service life for critical connections. The H100X025H1C is the kind of dependable component that engineers and technicians rely on to deliver consistent results, regardless of whether they’re assembling new equipment or performing routine maintenance.

• Material, size, and compatibility: White heat shrinkable polyolefin tubing with a nominal diameter of 1/8 inch, specifically designed to accommodate wires from 22 to 18 AWG. This precise sizing ensures a snug, secure fit that minimizes movement and protects delicate conductors from wear and thermal cycling.
• Packaging and availability: Supplied as 100 pieces per cassette, enabling fast access, reducing setup time, and decreasing waste. The cassette packaging is optimized for easy dispensing in workshops, labs, and on the production floor, so technicians can pull the exact length needed without handling loose tubing.
• Appearance and professional look: The white color offers a sleek, professional appearance that enhances readability for color-coded harnesses, labeling schemes, and panel wiring. A clean finish supports consistent documentation and tracing of circuits in complex assemblies.
• Durability and protection benefits: When applied, the tubing forms a protective, insulating layer around conductors, improving resistance to abrasion, moisture ingress, and dust. This enhances reliability in harsh environments, automotive under-hood applications, and electronics enclosures where reliability is critical.
• Versatility and ease of use: Suitable for insulation, strain relief, splicing protection, and cable management within a wide range of applications—from consumer electronics to industrial control systems. It works with standard heat-shrink tools and is compatible with common assembly and repair workflows.

How to install Panduit H100X025H1C

Proper installation of heat shrink tubing is essential to maximize insulation, protection, and reliability. Follow these practical steps to achieve consistent results with the Panduit H100X025H1C tubing:

• Prepare the wire: Cut the tubing to the desired length, allowing a little extra at both ends to ensure full coverage and a clean seal. Inspect the exposed conductors for any burrs or sharp edges and trim if necessary.
• Slip the tubing into place: Slide the tubing over the wire prior to making any connections, splices, or terminations. For longer harness runs, you can pre-cut and pre-test segments at a workbench before installing them in the final assembly.
• Position for coverage: Place the tubing so that it will fully cover the area requiring insulation or protection once heat is applied. Avoid placing the tubing over terminals that could trap heat or cause uneven shrinking.
• Apply heat evenly: Using a heat gun or another approved heat source, apply heat around the tubing in a slow, uniform motion. Start at the center and move outward to promote an even shrink with no air pockets. Keep the heat source at a safe distance to prevent scorching or melting the tubing.
• Inspect and finalize: Allow the tubing to cool completely and check that it has shrunk uniformly around the conductor with no gaps. If needed, trim excess tubing and re-check clearance near any moving parts, connectors, or heat sources. Confirm that the wrap does not interfere with any mating surfaces or connectors.
