3M™ Heat Shrink Tubing PSTH Elastomeric Polyester, Flexible Data Sheet November 2018 Description 3M™ Heat Shrink Tubing PSTH is a high performance, rugged heat shrinkable tubing designed for harsh operating conditions. The tubing is made from flexible elastomeric polyester and has a continuous operating temperature range of -55°C (-70°F) to 150°C (302°f). 3M PSTH tubing is resistant to a wide range of solvents and chemicals including aviation fuel, diesel fuel, lubricating oils and hydraulic fluid. 3M PSTH tubing is specifically designed to pass the SC-X15111C military specification but also meets the functional requirements of MIL-DTL-23053/16. Agency Approvals & Self Certifications Meets requirements of: • AS23053/16* • SC-X-15111 • For RoHS and REACH information, please visit www.3M.com/regs *Formerly MIL-I-AS23053/16, MIL-DTL-23053/16 and SAE-AMS-DTL-23053/16 Typical Applications 3M PSTH tubing is primarily designed for wire harnessing applications on military ground vehicles. It was primarily developed for the M-1 tank program, but is well suited for any application where conditions call for a high performance heat shrink tubing, particularly where the tubing will be exposed to petroleum based fluids. 3M PSTH tubing is also an excellent choice for heavy duty equipment and off-road vehicles. Shrink Ratio 3M PSTH tubing has a 2:1 shrink ratio. When freely recovered, the tubing will shrink to 50% of its as-supplied internal diameter. The recovered wall thickness is proportional to the degree of recovery. 1 of 3  3M™ Heat Shrink Tubing PSTH Standard Sizes and Dimensions Recovered I.D. (Maximum) In.
