Large Heat Shrink For ESC!

[photohoward1]

Hey guys.

I am trying to find Heat Shrink for my large ESC. Schulze 40/161. I need something in the 4" range, Clear and kind of rubbery thick. I tried to google it and came up with nothing. Any Help out there?

I think I know of a place but it is waaay across town from me, not far out of the way on a working day. I could check in the next couple days. I got some pretty wide stuff there before Howard. Does it need to be the heavy duty stuff?

Steven has some that is 3 5/8" wide - http://www.offshoreelectrics.com/pro...s-shrink-3.62c

If that isn't wide enough there is decent variaty on eBay;

4.4" wide - http://www.ebay.com/itm/112mm-4-4-Cl...item5190343e5b

Here is some that is almost 5" - http://www.ebay.com/itm/CLEAR-4-96-1...item2a3a5fa54c

I just re-read your post, I am not sure this stuff is thick enough for what you want.

Thanks Mike. The Schulze stuff is Heavy. I have the light stuff we use for batts. I think it's PVC Based. I emaled Mathias...We will see.

Is that Sayal Electronics? There is one close to me too. The links Mike lists may do for Howard but, that stuff may be the thinner harder PVC heatshrink as compared to Sayal that sell the thick more rubbery type stuff that Schulze uses or close to it.

Sayal sells Polyolefin (rubbery) heat shrink in 3ft or 4ft lengths I think and it doesn't shrink tons like the thin battery stuff does.

Ooops, found some here: http://www.ebay.com/itm/100MM-Polyol...item4ac6139918

Might be more, search by Polyolefin

Howard,

I buy mine from Newark electronics. You need 3" ID shrink, preferably Polyolefin. The only downside is they sell the stuff in packs of 2x- 4foot lengths at $75.

Can I buy maybe 1-2 feet from you in LA Tyler? :)

Kris,

So long as I remember to bring it yes. Usually I leave that type of stuff at home. Remind me before the event. Here is the link Howard: http://www.newark.com/webapp/wcs/sto...&storeId=10194

Ordered it....Expensive stuff. You will never find this stuff on a Chinese controller.

Yes, but now you can repair your Schulze's or Figthercat ESC's for a while.

What are the advantages of this thicker expensive stuff vs. the thinner PVC stuff? Is there something that I am missing?

Thanks,
Mike

I don't think so. I use PVC when I have nothing else.

Mike do we really have to get into that now? I just wanted it to be Factory New!
