Experts in Medical-Grade Heat Shrink Tubing

Why Pebax & Polyolefin?

These Class VI materials:

·       Work well for applications that need thin walls and low-temperature shrink

·       Offer flexible tubing with improved trackability—without sacrificing strength

·       Can stay on your device without a cumbersome removal process

When flexibility matters: 

Which material is best for your application?

Pebax Heat Shrink Tubing

Unique heat shrink tubing  invented by Cobalt Polymers

·       Flexible
