Panduit HSTT19-48-Q Concise Descriptor

Overview

The Panduit HSTT19-48-Q is a thin wall, heat shrinkable tubing designed for electrical insulation, mechanical protection, and strain relief of wire and cable assemblies. Its 4.8mm expanded internal diameter and 3:1 shrink ratio make it suitable for bundling and protecting wires in control panels, network infrastructure, and general electrical termination applications where space is a consideration. The tubing shrinks to provide a snug, durable, and environmentally sealed fit over connectors and splices.

Compatibility

This heat shrink tubing is compatible with a wide range of wire and cable gauges commonly used in industrial automation, IT networking, and security surveillance systems. It is designed to fit over standard connectors and cable diameters typically found in 24VDC power distribution, low-voltage signal cables, and Ethernet patch cords. While not specific to any single manufacturer's equipment, its utility is broad across any system requiring reliable wire termination and protection.

Installation Notes

Installation requires a heat source capable of reaching at least 90°C (194°F) to initiate shrinkage and 125°C (257°F) to fully recover. A heat gun is recommended for even application and to avoid overheating or damaging the underlying wires. Ensure the tubing is properly sized for the cable bundle and that the heat source is applied uniformly around the circumference. The tubing shrinks to a 1.6mm internal diameter after recovery.
