The primary application for 3M TMW tubing is in the manufacture of heat shrink butt connectors, disconnects, ring terminals, and fork terminals. Other applications include braided shield pigtails, mechanical assemblies, electronic components, electrical wire splices, breakouts, solder joints, delicate wire terminations and end-sealing of electrical cables. Standard colors include: .183 - Red, .220 - Blue, .225 - Yellow, .330 - Pink.
