Printashrink CPF/FR3


Printashrink CPF/FR3 is a commercial grade 3:1 shrink ratio heatshrink polyolefin with a working temperature of 135°C. It is a UL approved, fire retardant sleeve able to accommodate difficult or irregular shapes is readily available in a number of colours and sizes up to 39mm ID and can be cut and printed as required.

This flexible 3:1 heatshrink polyolefin sleeve is perfect for commercial applications where a 135°C working temperature is needed to cover irregularly shaped pieces or pass over larger components. The higher shrink ratio also allows any one supplied diameter to fit a greater range of different sized applications. It is both UL and CSA approved and has excellent electrical, chemical and physical properties. We offer our full range of printing and cutting services on this high quality, commercial sleeve making it perfect for identification, branding and marking requirements.
