Insulate and protect compatible wire joints with Dr.Light White Heat-Shrink Tubing. This pack contains 50 pre-cut tubes, each measuring 6mm in diameter and 100mm in length.
When controlled heat is applied, the tubing contracts around a compatible wire, connector or cable joint to create a neat protective covering. The white finish is particularly useful for light-coloured wiring, lighting installations, cable identification and projects requiring a clean appearance.

How to Use
Disconnect the equipment from power before beginning. Select a tube that can slide over the widest part of the wire, joint or connector before shrinking.
Cut the tube to the required length if necessary. Slide it onto the wire and move it away from the connection point while completing the electrical joint.
Position the tubing centrally over the finished connection. Apply controlled, even heat with a suitable heat gun, moving continuously around the tube until it contracts securely.
Allow the tubing and surrounding components to cool completely before handling, testing or reconnecting the equipment to power.
Compatibility / Applications
Suitable for compatible:
- Electrical wires
- Cable joints
- Lighting connections
- White or light-coloured cables
- Wire terminals
- Cable repairs
- Electronics projects
- Automotive wiring
- Low-voltage installations
- Hobby and DIY projects
- Workshop maintenance
- Cable identification
- Connector protection
The original 6mm diameter must fit over the widest part of the intended cable, joint or connector. The recovered diameter and shrink ratio are not stated on the visible packaging, so suitability should be checked before permanent installation.
Care & Maintenance
- Keep unused tubing clean and dry
- Store it inside the resealable pouch
- Keep it away from direct sunlight and excessive heat
- Do not store it near open flames

Safety Information
Disconnect all electrical power before working on wires or connections. Confirm that the circuit is de-energised using an appropriate tester.
Use a suitable heat gun in a ventilated area and follow its operating instructions. Keep the hot tool away from skin, flammable materials and surrounding components. Do not use an open flame, as it can burn the tubing, damage cable insulation or create a fire hazard.
Allow the tubing and nearby components to cool before touching them. Heat-shrink tubing is not a substitute for correct wiring, approved connectors or professional electrical work. Consult a qualified electrician when working with mains-voltage installations or when compatibility is uncertain.
Frequently Asked Questions
How many pieces are included?
The pack contains 50 white heat-shrink tubes.
What size is each tube?
Each piece measures 6mm in diameter and 100mm in length.
What colour is the tubing?
The tubing is white.
Are the tubes pre-cut?
Yes. They are supplied as individual 100mm pieces.
Can the pieces be shortened?
Yes. Each tube can be cut to the required length before heating.
How is the tubing shrunk?
Apply controlled, even heat using a suitable heat gun until the tubing contracts around the connection.
Can I use a lighter or open flame?
An open flame is not recommended because it can burn the tubing, damage the cable or create a fire hazard.
What shrink ratio does it have?
The shrink ratio is not stated clearly on the visible packaging.
Is it adhesive-lined?
The packaging does not state that it has an adhesive lining, so this should not be assumed.
Will 6mm tubing fit every cable?
No. It must be wide enough to slide over the cable or connector before shrinking and small enough to contract securely around the completed joint.
Is the white colour useful for cable identification?
Yes. It can help distinguish selected wires, connections or circuits where white identification is appropriate.
