Technical Datasheet
TTDS-023 Revision 9 - May 2021
TMS-SCE Military Grade, Heat Shrink Identification Marker Sleeving, for the identification
of wire and cables.
Made from durable, flame retarded, radiation cross linked heat shrinkable polyolefin. Supplied in ‘ladder
format’, sleeves are presented for ease of printing and kitting.
TMS-SCE is a thin wall, light weight, fast recovery 3:1 shrink ratio sleeve, allowing the customer to cover a
wide range of cable diameters.
TMS-SCE-2X is a thicker, rugged wall, 2:1 shrink ratio sleeve, which can aid with handling and installation.
Suitable for a wide variety of applications, including aerospace, military, industrial and energy. Marker
sleeves meet the mark permanence requirements of AS5942 and MIL 202 Method 215
TMS-SCE meets the material performance requirements of the AMS SAE DTL 23053/5 specification.
TMS-SCE-2X sleeves are fabricated from AMS SAE DTL 23053/5 class 1 and 3 tubing.
TMS-SCE and TTMS Heat Shrink Identification products are available as part of a complete identification
system. The system comprises specific printers, thermal transfer ribbons and WINTOTAL software.
