As the tubing reaches this temperature, it turns from a milk-white translucence to acompletely transparent material - at this point the heat source should be removed, as20%-30% of shrinkage occurs as the tubing cools and returns to its original appearance.SpecificationsRaychem Specification TFE RW 2055 TFE-R RW 2054.Material Safety Data Sheet available on request.Installation instructions available on request.Raychem and TFE/TFE-R are trademarks of Raychem Interconnect, a division of Tyco ElectronicsCorporation.Raychem InterconnectCheney Manor Industrial EstateSwindon, Wiltshire SN2 2QETel: (44)-1793-528171Fax: (44)-1793-616652All of the above information, including illustrations, is believed to be reliable.
