will these fit 2mm AM1002A
 Danilo 2 points
The inner diameter of the heat shrink tube is 2mm. Without space maybe not convenient.
 Gerry01 2884 points
It's better to use 3 or 4 mm tube. It shrinks up to 50pcnt.
 Wazza_99 864 points
The 2mm might fit tightly but bear in mind that when it will be in the proximity of heat, it will automatically shrink, so you might find moving it on the solder point very hard indeed.

No,HK productcode: WH-4MM-BLACK is perfectly suitable for AM1002A.
 thorian 138 points
To all the people that say no. I say yes, Using 2 allen keys I stretch the heat shrink a little to clear the wire. Then it shrinks down to a nice tight fit.
 Vitor 1 points
It´s better to use 4 or 5mm gives for almost everithing what we want.

I would need some 1mm or smaller shrink tube...
 DennisT1 162 points
Not seen it that small, sorry. You are aware the 2mm shrinks down to ~1mm?
 anikeev 608 points
When heated, it will shrink to 1 mm or even smaller. Didn't see 1 mm shrink tube ever. If you need an isolation for something precise try heat glue or nail polish (nail laquer is really good to isolate something that will not move).

Nail laquer... :D What a great idea. Thanks a lot, your the best man!
 ihrstad 12 points
It shrinks to 1:4 of its size. So it will be about 0,25mm when shrinked!
 Hasi1 12 points
ihrstad: first the 1/4th of 2mm is 0.5mm, second it does only shrink to about 1mm. I know I have a piece of it in my hand. :D
 Mayer 15 points
yes ist work very good you can shrinks down to 1mm
 pacoeduran 16 points

Do you just get 1 piece per order? 1 mtr long?
 R/CNewbie 3807 points
Yes, you get one 1m length...
 Gerry01 2884 points
You mean, one mtr per order or per item? You get 1 m of shrink tube for each item ordered.
 ssoap 17 points
They show red and black together in the pictures. Sometimes the pictures show exactly what you get in the pack. Sometimes not. Consistency would be nice. And why not a multi pack of different sizes and different colors. Most times I am surprised at what comes in the package but other times I am disappointed.
 armyn78 17 points
yes you will get the full length 1 meter, the do not cut at all for smaller size. 1 meter full length!!
 mark7 173 points
Yes, one piece, in this case, black shrink tube in 1m length in total.
 tommy2toes 2085 points
no you get long strips one meter long each or three feet in length but you can get as many as you want i got 7 red 2mm 3 black 2mm you can choose to cut as many peices as you need from it but the answer is no you get as many as you order. happy flying
 kznkid 2 points
Yes, if you order quantity 1 you will get 1 meter if you order quantity 2 you will get 2 meters, quantity 3 is 3 meters, etc
 Gerry01 2884 points
ssoap, you're wright, picture is confusing. You have to read color and size in the product description. And a red-black combo would be nice to see* after all, it's what we use, two wires, positive and negative.

 Alexander9800 19 points
yes you get 1 piece at 1 meter if you order 1
so if you order 4 you get 4meter in one pice

or if you order 12 you wil get 12meter in one pice:)
 Arjan 28 points
When you order 1 you get 1x1 meter. When you order 2 you get 1x2 meter. Please credit this answer!
 xtremepb 3 points
1 quantity=1 meter, however everytime i ordered they gave me 1 yard not 1 meter, so i ended up with a little less. It is still worth the price though

 Agris 22 points
Noup! It is isolating material. Somethig inbetween rubber & plastic, it is soft.
 Dunga_CZE 9 points
It depends on the diemeter of the ends you want to join, but you can use it. It's suitable with no problem.
 Liquid_Ice 19 points
If you want to shrinkwrap your pushrods, I'd recomend something bigger than 2mm. They won't be able to fit over most linkages. Get a shrinkwrap 1 or 2mm wider than your pushrod and you'll be set.
 Orestes 3 points
YES it work fine
 beetledrift 40 points
yes, i use it for that to
 WRX _STI 16 points
yes its good for that, it will work well i use it!
 Bx3mE 14 points
If you want to use it to make a nice looking rod end its ok i´d recommend bigger. If You use it to guide the rod - it´s the wrong product to much friction for this use.

Dumb question: how do you heat, mainly that 2-3 mm part that goes inside a connector ?
I tried a match/lighter: everything burned.
Hair dryer: too much wind, not enough heat.
It seems we need a heater gun but Barbies's size...
 kolotoympas 55 points
I do it with a lighter. The key is not to pass 1 sec of fire every time. and get the tube Upon the flame. Wait 5 sec and burn the other side. good luck
 jerry-tom 269 points
Use this link to look at and find something similar in a shop at home, www.link
 Camboui 133 points
Wow, if that gun can regulate temperature and airspeed it might be a solution. But the price...
 MrBruiser 29 points
Just invest in a heat gun, it makes it quick & easy. No www.link
 byohnd 8 points
i use a small torch. i just wave it by the shrink tube quickly and it shrinks without any burning. i have used a lighter before using same method. are you leaving the flame on the tubeing or waving it under?
 Simone 210 points
Use lighter! Only be quick.
 KeithLuneau 43 points
I usually use a cigarette lighter, just be quick about it and don't keep the flame on too long. You can also use the tip of your soldering iron, and it works a little slower and won't burn it so easily.
 Harold 12 points
best thing i have found is Hakko hot air solder station 2mm round tip. can get them on ebay
if only HK had a simple version of this
 seszi 18 points
lighter is ok, keep 15 cm from the tube and wait
 Dunga_CZE 9 points
You can use lighter as you tried before, just place it a bit further straight upon the flame. The heat above the lihgters flame is enough even if it's about 5-10cm just let it above for a while (few secs).
 Liquid_Ice 19 points
I used to have a mini torch that I would quickly swipe the flame over it to shrink it without burning it but your best bet would be a heat gun, hobbyking sells one in the handheld tools section I beleive.
 beetledrift 40 points
i use a lighter, but keep the flame a few cm's away from it
 DennisT1 162 points
I like to use a monokote heat gun(hot air-not an iron)* gets hotter than a hair dryer but takes long time to start melting stuff.
 95ROLR 13 points
Oddly enough, depending on what application, the connectors/wires will heat up enough that the heat shrink will "melt" itself to the wire/connector, once you get a battery hooked up and start using the unit, etc. The current flowing through will warm up the wires and generally form the heat shrink properly.
 CARSLOS ANDRE 58 points
Buy or heat gun
 lagrockline 5 points
With a soldering iron, but not with the tip, with the heating element. In effect, 2mm tube is too thin to be shrinked with the tip.
 Tizer 6 points
Works well with a lighter. Just keep the shrinktube a bit above the flame, not directly in the flame.

What is the smallest diameter heat shrink you can buy on HK
 M1keMan 26 points
2mm is the smallest on HK
 Corleone 116 points
2mm, that'll shrink down to aprox. 1mm when heated.

2mm is the smallest. :) At least that I've seen.

 zerobyte 99 points

 Fly4ever 9 points
2 mm. It will, however, shrink to about 1 mm
 Liquid_Ice 19 points
Just a guess would be 1mm. They usually shrink to the half mark.

good tubing for small motor connections. I use them on my C20 motor and 2805 motors to the ESC. Highly recommended.

This is standard quality heat shrink tubing. It does not have thermoplastic adhesive on the interior to promote adhesion, but that is typical for hobby shrink tubing. Simple friction holds it in place. It is dyed throughout, so scuffs and abrasion don't affect the color of the tubing. This is very useful stuff, and great to stock up on at the inexpensive price provided here.
