What is Bulk Rate? BulkRate is a semi-wholesale system with items priced separately from retail. When you use bulk rates, a flat $1.70 registered air mail fee will automatically be added to your cart to ensure delivery of package. While BulkRate's intention is to offer cheaper prices when you buy in bulk, because it is priced separately it on occassions show a higher than retail price. That's why we ask you to enter BULKRATE as a coupon code to manually activate the rates. You can always opt not to use the bulk rates. If you are looking for wholesale prices please feel free to contact us.

Pros: Heat shrink tubing! Good quality stuff. Shrinks well. A bit more than X2. When shrunk all the way, the tubing wall is a bit more than half a mm thick and pretty stiff. All the tubes are 1 meter long.
Cons: None really. Great item.
Not much of a difference between the larger sizes 8,9,10 mm. I would skip the 9mm and add a 12mm or a 5mm instead.
Other: Get it! Get the smaller diameter set as well because the 6mm is a too big for many applications. Thanks DX !
Involvement Level: Expert (understands the inner workings)
Pros: -Much cheaper than store bought heatshrink, and contains much more -The heat shrink diameter will shrink quite a bit. The 6mm heat shrik went to about 2.5mm in diameter, which is quite impressive.
Cons: - No packaging or anything, just heatshrink tied with a rubber band -Shipping a bit slow
Other: Not much else i can say. Pretty much standard heatshrink, that's about it. Used a hairdryer to shrink the heatshrink, it takes about 30 seconds.
Involvement Level: Expert (understands the inner workings)
Pros: those tubes are good for "reduction" between for example 3,5 mm jack connector and very thin wire. on the connector you heat the smallest of these and on the smallest you heat the smaller from another package (here is offered 5 smaller diameters). directly heat the smallest on the jack is not possible because you cant wear the smallest over the jack.
Cons: it is annoying how it doesnt stay in a row. they were delivereder bent for 4 times, and the stays in this shape. so I recommend to use rubber to fix it.
Other: good fo this price.
Involvement Level: Expert (understands the inner workings)
Pros: Capable of shrinking to a third of it's size, great price.
Cons: None really, as others have mentioned an elastic or something of that sort may be better than tape for packaging.
Other: If you ever use shrink tubing, this is worth getting. Really, if you have not used it before but know what it is, this is worth getting.
Involvement Level: Expert (understands the inner workings)
Pros: - 1 meter of 5 different sizes .
- Where I live, 1 meter of 10mm heatshrink . costs more than all 5 of these...
- Pretty decent shrink factor. Another user said it shrinks to around 2\3 the original diameter, I think that is about right .
Cons: None. It's heatshrink... you put it over something, you heat it, it shrinks.
Other: Great price for what you are getting. For this price, buy several lots of different sizes and you'll never need to make do without!
Involvement Level: Expert (understands the inner workings)
Pros: They shrink, well this is basically your standard heatshrink so it does what its supposed to.
The assorted sizes are ideal if you're starting off your stock and are unsure of exactly which diameters you'll be requiring
Cons: As others have mentioned the tape used to bind them leaves a residue.
This apparently catches fire if using a lighter to shrink the tubing, but then again you;re not supposed to use a naked flame, a hot air gun is the correct tool to use
Other: Cheap and cheerful
Involvement Level: Expert (understands the inner workings)
Pros: CHEAP, inexpensive, indecent price :-). Nothing to say more, it just working fine at fire ;-).
Cons: They are folded a bit for packaging, for some work it's just annoying to pass the wire trough, but not a real problem.
Other: Marvelous article at so low price, i was sparing my usage of such thing due to price, not anymore :-)
Involvement Level: Expert (understands the inner workings)
Pros: Great Price! Good assortment of heat-shrink tube sizes. Generous length of 1 metre, each. Do what they are supposed to do.
Cons: None, really! It would be nice to see these in 'red', 'white', and other colours, as well.
Other: You really can't go wrong at this price!
Involvement Level: Expert (understands the inner workings)
Pros: - Low cost - Good quality (same stuff you would buy at your local electronics store) - Various thick sizes - you will always have the size you need!
Cons: - They come wrapped in adhesive tape, which leaves a sticky residue when you remove it. Not that bad, but not ideal either.
Other: Overall, these are well worth the price. You may want to buy them along with sku.23452 so you will have all the sizes available so you'll always find the size you need handy.
Involvement Level: Expert (understands the inner workings)
Pros: All sizes are very useful, this wider variety is good for audio cables with double insulation. It's so cheap and compact and will come in handy, works perfectly even with a simple cigarette lighter, and it's simply impossible to compare how professional your soldering looks and works when protected with heat-shrink versus any kind of adhesive tape..
Cons: It comes wrapped in cellotape which is really useless and annoying.
Other: If you ever solder anything at all, buy these, and buy a few.
