additional mechanical ruggedness.
FIT preferred heat-shrink products
are made from premium
compounds under the tightest
manufacturing controls. This
means FIT tubing consistently
provides excellent physical
characteristics such as low
longitudinal shrinkage and wide
temperature ranges while
providing an elegant appearance
when used alone or on OEM
equipment.
The FIT line consists of various
tubing types, each designed

materials for higher or lower shrink
temperatures, wider operating
temperatures, and such special
needs as outstanding chemical
resistance or increased flexibility.
