Raychem EVSW Heat Shrink Tubing: Advanced Solution for Electric Vehicles

Raychem EVSW heat shrink tubing is a specially developed, single-wall heat shrink tube designed to meet the needs of electric vehicles (EV). This high-quality orange tubing offers superior high-voltage protection and maximum performance for EV applications. With its flame-retardant properties and excellent electrical performance, the EVSW is ideal for protecting electrical cables and components in vehicles operating under demanding conditions.

Reliable Protection and Performance for Electric Vehicles

The EVSW heat shrink tubing not only provides excellent insulation but can also be easily applied to complex shapes. This versatility makes it an ideal choice for both simple and complex EV applications. The product is based on materials that have already proven successful in other automotive applications, ensuring a robust performance foundation for electric vehicles.

With the ability to be installed using standard application equipment such as a heat gun, transport oven, or air oven, the EVSW heat shrink tubing offers both ease of use and reliability. Thanks to its low shrink temperature, there is no risk of overheating or damaging the product during installation. Moreover, the EVSW heat shrink tubing is suitable for use at temperatures up to 135°C (275°F), with a short-term heat exposure up to 200°C (392°F), making it an excellent choice for various EV applications.

The introduction of the new single-wall EV heat shrink tubing

As governments around the world implement stricter emissions standards, the demand for electric vehicles continues to grow. This trend, in turn, leads to a rapid increase in the use of thick wires and cables. Therefore, adequate protection of high-voltage cables and connections is required, with a high-quality and well-designed solution.

The acceleration of electric vehicles in daily life continues to drive technological changes and challenges in the field of sustainability. TE Connectivity (TE) heat shrink products have kept pace with these changes and hybrid challenges, developing a new single-wall heat shrink tubing specifically designed for use in electric vehicles. Electric vehicles require components that can operate at high temperatures, prevent flame spread, work with higher voltages, and assist in circuit identification. All of this ensures the reliability, robustness, and security necessary to guarantee operational stability and confidence.

The new Raychem EV Single Wall (EVSW) heat shrink tubing meets the growing demands of this rapidly evolving market by providing heat shrink tubing specifically designed to insulate and protect conductive components and cables.
