BS EN 4708-001:2019

What is BS EN 4708-001 - Heat-shrinkable sleeving about ?  

BS EN 4708-001 is an international standard for aerospace series that guides on heat-shrinkable sleeving. 

BS EN 4708-001 specifies the required characteristics, test methods, qualification, and production routine testing of heat shrinkable sleeving for binding, insulation, and identification. 

Who is BS EN 4708-001 - Heat-shrinkable sleeving for ? 

BS EN 4708-001 on heat-shrinkable sleeving is useful for: 

• Aerospace avionic and fibre optic technology 
• Aircraft electrical manufacturers 
• Aerospace and defence industries 
• Design engineers for heat-shrinkable sleeves 
• Quality control personnel for heat-shrinkable sleeves 

Why should you use BS EN 4708-001 - Heat-shrinkable sleeving ?  

A heat-shrink sleeve is a corrosion protective coating for pipelines in the form of a wraparound or tubular sleeve and is easy to install, provides excellent protection, and is cost-effective. A heat-shrink sleeve is specially designed to protect cables and hoses exposed to high temperatures and molten metal splashes. 

By using best practice guidance as outlined in BS EN 4708-001, you can manufacture the best quality heat-shrink sleeves including all the qualities that make it best for use in aircraft.
