Using this heat shrink tubing is easy. First, select the right size for your wire within the 2 - 4/0 AWG range. Slide the tubing onto the wire. Then, use a heat source to heat the tubing until it reaches 257°F (125°C). As it heats, the tubing will shrink down to 3/8 feet (9 mm) and the adhesive lining will create a seal. Be careful when heating to avoid overheating or burning. Always work in a well - ventilated area due to the warning about DEHP. To maintain the tubing, keep it in a cool, dry place. Avoid exposing it to extreme temperatures outside the -40°C to 110°C range. Check the tubing regularly for any signs of damage or wear.
