[* black] Measure a length of heat shrink tubing to cover the damaged section of wire. | |
- | [* icon_note] |
+ | [* icon_note] Most heat shrink tubing will slightly shrink longitudinally (around 5-15%), so be sure to give yourself a little longer than what you measured. |
[* black] Measure the diameter of the wire, and then choose a heat shrink diameter that will be large enough to slide onto the wire before heating, but will still provide a snug fit once heated. The shrunken diameter should be slightly smaller than the wire's diameter to ensure a tight fit. | |
[* icon_note] If the wire has a connector end that is larger than the diameter of the wire, you'll need to choose tubing that can fit over the connector, and then shrink down enough to fit snugly on the wire (A higher shrink ratio will be needed). |
