How to Use

1. Trim away any damaged or frayed portion of the cord.
2. Slide the heat shrink tube over the cord end.
3. Using a heat gun, apply heat evenly while slowly rotating the cord until the tube shrinks tightly around it.
4. Allow it to cool completely before using the cord.

We highly recommend using a heat gun rather than a lighter. A heat gun provides even heat for a smooth, professional finish. Direct flame from a lighter can overheat the PVC, causing it to scorch, discolor or turn black.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use a lighter instead?

We do not recommend using a lighter. The direct flame can cause the PVC to burn, discolor or turn black. A heat gun produces a much cleaner and more professional result.

What can these be used for?

They are ideal for hoodie drawstrings, sweatpants, jackets, bags, backpacks, shoelaces and many other cords that need a durable, finished end.

Can these heat shrink tubes be cut to a shorter length?

Yes. The tubes can easily be cut with sharp scissors before shrinking, allowing you to create the perfect length for your specific project or cord.

Will the tubes stay securely in place after shrinking?

Yes. When properly heated with a heat gun, the PVC tubing shrinks tightly around the cord to create a secure, durable finish that helps prevent fraying during everyday use.
