Cushions protect service lines

Heat-shrinkable Bobbins, from Tyco Electronics, provide a protective cushion between pipes, hoses or cables and the P-Clips, ties and other clamps used to secure them in position.
Heat-shrinkable Bobbins, from Tyco Electronics, are designed to provide a protective cushion between pipes, hoses or cables and the P-Clips, ties and other clamps used to secure them in position. Bobbins fit a wide range of diameters and are quick and easy to install, without special tooling. Once shrunk into position they will remain securely in place and protect their host against abrasion damage.

They have excellent mechanical, thermal and chemical properties, a broad operating temperature range -40C to +150C and are ideal for a wide variety of manufacturing applications - including the high performance requirements of the aerospace industry, military equipment and motor sport installations.

These slim profile and lightweight heat-shrinkable components also offer significant space and weight savings over traditional moulded designs.
