Building or rebuilding a battery pack and struggling to find tubing wide enough to cover the whole assembly? Hobbyists, EV builders, and workshop technicians working with large-format battery packs, thick cable bundles, or oversized cylindrical components need a reliable large-diameter heat shrink solution that goes on cleanly and stays put.
Each piece of this PVC heat shrink tubing has a flat width of 600mm (≈23.6"), which expands to wrap objects with a circumference of up to approximately 1,200mm before shrinking. Available in Blue and Transparent colors, and in lengths of 1 Meter (≈39.4"), 2 Meter (≈78.7"), and 3 Meter (≈118.1"). The PVC construction provides a firm, form-fitting sleeve once heat is applied.
Typical use cases include wrapping DIY lithium-ion or LiFePO4 battery packs for e-bikes and power storage systems, bundling and protecting large cable harnesses in automotive or marine applications, and insulating oversized cylindrical components in workshop or industrial repair projects.

Measure the total length of the area you need to cover, then add 10–15% extra for shrinkage and trimming. For battery packs, generally measure the full cell stack length. Available lengths: 1 Meter (≈39.4"), 2 Meter (≈78.7"), 3 Meter (≈118.1"). For longer runs, order multiple pieces and overlap slightly at the seam.
PVC heat shrink tubing of this type typically has a 2:1 shrink ratio, meaning it shrinks to approximately half its original flat width when heat is applied. The 600mm flat width generally wraps objects up to about 380mm in circumference after full shrinkage. Measure your object's circumference before ordering to confirm fit.
PVC heat shrink tubing generally activates at 70°C–120°C (158°F–248°F). A heat gun set to a low-to-medium setting works well. Move the heat gun steadily along the tubing to avoid hot spots. Avoid open flames, which can cause uneven shrinkage, discoloration, or scorching of the PVC.
PVC offers basic moisture resistance suitable for indoor use and short-term outdoor exposure. For prolonged outdoor use, UV exposure, or submersion, adhesive-lined polyolefin tubing is generally a better choice. This product is best suited for indoor battery pack builds, workshop cable management, and protected enclosures.
A 600mm flat width corresponds to an inner circumference of approximately 1,200mm (≈47") before shrinking, making it suitable for large battery packs, thick cable harnesses, or cylindrical objects up to roughly 380mm (≈15") in diameter. Always measure your object's circumference and confirm it is under approximately 1,100–1,150mm before ordering.
Yes — large-diameter PVC heat shrink tubing is commonly used for wrapping lithium-ion (Li-ion) and LiFePO4 battery packs in DIY e-bike, electric scooter, power tool, and home energy storage builds. Ensure the flat width is sufficient to slide over your assembled pack before applying heat, and confirm the voltage rating meets your application requirements.
Both colors use the same PVC material and share the same shrink characteristics. Transparent allows you to see cell labels, BMS wiring, and markings underneath the sleeve — useful for inspection and troubleshooting. Blue provides a clean, finished appearance and is commonly used for color-coded battery identification in multi-pack or multi-voltage systems.
