Reedy Shrink Tubing 15 Pieces (3 Of Each Colour)

The Reedy Shrink Tubing Assortment (Part No: AS650) is a workshop essential designed for organizing and protecting electrical connections in any RC build. This 15-piece set is specifically curated for hobbyists who want a professional, "factory-spec" look for their ESC-to-motor wiring, battery leads, and sensor wires.

Key Features:

• Color-Coded Organization: Includes five distinct colors, allowing you to easily identify motor phases (A, B, C) and battery polarities (+ and -) at a glance, reducing the risk of expensive reverse-polarity mistakes.
• Optimal Shrink Ratio: Features a high-quality polyolefin material that shrinks to roughly 50% of its original diameter when heat is applied, providing a tight, contoured seal around wire joints and connectors.
• High Dielectric Strength: Provides excellent electrical insulation, preventing short circuits if wires rub against a carbon fiber chassis or metal components during a crash.
• Heat Resistant: The tubing is designed to withstand the ambient heat of high-performance racing environments without becoming brittle or cracking over time.

Pro-Tip for a Professional Finish:

To get that smooth, wrinkle-free look, avoid using a lighter. Pro-Tip: Use a dedicated heat gun on a low setting or the barrel of your soldering iron (without touching the tubing). Rotate the wire constantly while heating to ensure the tubing shrinks evenly from all sides. If you use a lighter, keep the blue part of the flame (the coolest part) near the tubing to prevent soot or charring marks.

Tech Hack: When wiring a sensored brushless motor, use the Blue, Yellow, and Orange pieces to match the A-B-C labels on the ESC and motor tabs. This makes troubleshooting a stuttering motor much easier, as you can verify the phases are in the correct sequence instantly.
