560PCS Heat Shrink Tubing 2:1, Eventronic Electrical Wire Cable Wrap Assortment Electric Insulation Heat Shrink Tube Kit with Box(5 colors/12 Sizes)

Works well for protecting headphones and phone cables

Strong material and comes in sizes for connections up to 10 gauge (perhaps a bit larger) wire.Needs heat close to 500f (260C), which should be in the range of most heat guns.One caution: Don't jostle the box with the lid open!The bins are very full and just large enough to hold their contents, so spill-over to other bins is very easy.A little clumsiness on my part resulted in 20 minutes of sorting, so learn from my mistake. :)

The USB cable on my tablet had worn out. Before buying a new one -- and due to the low price of Eventronic's Shrink tubing -- I thought I should give it a try. Within 5 minutes (using the 45 mm sized tubing) I had the repair complete. I must say that I am so glad with the performance of this product and feel I can get a lot more use from the original USB cable that came with my tablet.

I have used way more of these than I could ever imagine.In addition to the intended RC / battery repair that i originally bought these for. I have used this in:- IPhone cord repair (the classic breakage at the plug in point)- Fixed several Airsoft Gun Accessories- Lego anntena repairsGreat stuff. Shrinks nice an evenly. Appears to be quite durable as well.If anything can be said. I wish I had bought the larger box with more sizes

This is a great product. I bought it to fix electrical cords, but also used it to fix my eyeglass frame that had a crack in it. I put it on both sides to make both sides match. I just wish there was no writing on it, but I was able to make it face the inside of my glasses.

A pretty good assortment for the price. I needed some shrink wrap quickly for a project so this was my first choice. It has worked well for a variety of projects, between microelectronics and some higher power brushless motor stuff. Not much to say other than that... it's shrink wrap. Note that the shrink ratio is 2:1, as opposed to 3:1. Sometimes when I had to use a larger size to fit over a joint, I couldn't quite get the shrinkage I needed. Also note that each set (color) is a different diameter. Sometimes I wanted red for VCC and black for ground, but the different diameters wouldn't always work out. For some different gauge wires I would also get stuck with an odd color, like blue or green instead of the preferred red/black, and vice-versa when I wanted blue/yellow for signal wires. But that's the compromise you make for having a range of color and size in one kit. The only real difficulty I had with sizing was wrapping up one of the knockoff Arduino nanos: the 13 mm tubing just barely fit over the crystal resonators on the board.

Heat shrink tubing, various colors, sizes. Shrinks nicely, uniformly, and grasps a wire quite well.Only quibble I have is the box...the closure flaps are already broken off, only after a few open/close cycles. Why can't these box manufacturers put a hinge on the latch, not just the flex plastic.Knocked 1 star off for the box.

I soldered a broken wire in my Hoover Linx Stick Vac to make the brush turn again. The first time I have ever soldered. (You can tell by my clothes pin rigged holder. :) Youtube video showed me how. The heat shrink tubing was very easy to use. I just used the heat from the solder iron to shrink it. It was one option shown on the video if you didn't have a heat gun. Loved the heat shrink tubing. Better than wrapping in electrical tape.
