Another tip. I shrink wrapped wires with rare earth magnets to allow the wire to be strung along metal and stuck to the metal. Example towing a car with mounted temporary taillights. The wire from those taillights are stuck along the car's body to be plugged into the vehicle doing the towing.

[@howardosborne8647]

Some great tips and techniques here👌. At the 2 minutes 40 seconds mark where you repair the broken arm on the spectacles if you add a piece of piano wire inside the heat shrink sleeve it will make the repaired arm much more robust and resistant to buckling under stress loads. For best user safety make sure the cut ends of the piano wire are fully covered inside the length of the shrink wrap tubing.

[@MrPir84free]

I used a good ole paperclip. Cut it to twice the length that I needed and folded it over nice and tight using a pair of pliers. Same concept though

[@Nonononono_Ohno]

My aunt, who is a concert pianist, protested when I came with pliers and opened her Steinway piano.

[@BryanTorok]

I was about to make a similar suggestion except I used one or two pieces of thin copper wire. The heat shrink tubing by itself was not strong enough.

[@Chris-hx3om]

The cut end of a cable tie works well too.

[@seanstraw8688]

Also there is shrink tubing with heat-activated adhesives inside (as seen in most of these examples), and there is heat shrink WITHOUT that. The adhesive type will serve better for things needing sealing. The resistor example should really be demonstrated by having the piece of heat shrink slipped onto one wire BEFORE completing the soldering - a common example would be mending a damaged wire, where you can't slip it on from an end because the ends are already affixed to something. Keep it far enough back from the point you might be soldering so it does not shrink before you're ready to slide it over the joint and want to shrink it. Another application: screwdriver shafts so you're less likely to short out a screwdriver on something. Shrink tubing is available in much larger sizes, and can be used to encapsulate electronic components. I don't know that your black sealant goo was, but many silicone / RTV caulks and such contain acetic acid, which react with copper, so make sure what you're using doesn't have that.

[@helm311]

If you had no way to get glasses I guess that would be a way to fix a broke the frame. One thing you could do a little different, cut another piece of plastic like a splint and then put the heat shrink tubing around both the splint and the glasses where you plan to join the two broke parts of the frame together and then heat shrink it. This would add much more strength.

[@richardstewart6900]

I was thinking of that, too - maybe a short length of old ballpoint pen tube? And glue the break, too!

The RCA end should have been completed a bit differently. The shield and cable jacket should have been crimped for a good strain relief and the whole thing could have been then heat shrink tubing out say two to three inches (2.5 to 5 cm) long for a good strain relief, but also utilizing the cover that threads in place over all of it.

[@johncronk1338]

Yep, 100% agree. The method shown is incorrect and would not be durable. The tabs at the end of the connector are meant to crimp over the cable insulation so when pulling/pushing the connector, the solder joints are not stressed.

[@thechumpsbeendumped.7797]

The point of the video was using heat shrink. The RCA was specifically a repair. So assume you didnt have the screw on piece or crimping tools to put an rca end on properly, and all you had to repair it temporarily was heatshrink. How would you go about it differently?

For stabilization or strain relief purposes, I often use either a drop of hot glue inside or use some thin CA glue after the tubing cooled down. I recently put some cheap alligator clamps on barbecue sticks, put some heatshrink around it and CA glue.

I want to cover two cables but there is no way to insert the tube anywhere, can I cut the tube and then glue it and heat it?

[@stargazer7644]

The heat shrink he's using already has glue in it.

[@fasterthanaturtle]

To panto. Extra large tube, cut length, place over, glue back together, flat bar inside at seam, fold bar over and over again rolling tube around it until fully covered or more, heat half "might try unravel so use finger on other half and only snug tube with heat", zip tie so flat bar don't flip undoing snug, repeat other side, give more heat to complete. Just an on the fly idea. If want more protection, add liquid electrical tape under joint but above bar. Don't know size of item but for flat bar can use popsicle stick and trim

Some good ideas and one I'd suggest avoiding. While the last tip may have made a reasonably good mechanical connection, the electrical connection is suspect and subject to oxidation (and thus increasing resistance) over time. I like the idea of making my own all-in-one heat shrink/butt connector - but did you have to use special low-temp solder? Shrink tends to split at higher temperatures. I've used the commercial version and don't feel they contain enough solder (although they do seem to work). I'd also never considered using the glue in the marine versions to stick the tubing to itself, creating tabs, separating wires or acting as cushioning material. Those are great suggestions!

[@HGSolberg]

Looking closely at the images, it doesn't seem like the solder in the shrink/butt connectors melts completely, so I'm not sure this is such a good idea. Also, considering the work involved in making each connector, it doesn't seem worth it. It you don't have premanufactured solder connectors, I would say it's easier to just solder the wires and and shrink wrap it the normal way.

[@spelunkerd]

Just be careful with the current going through a resistor that is covered. Those things have maximum current ratings, based on how quickly they can offload heat. Maximum power rating is the product of voltage drop across the resistor and current going through it. If you give the resistor a rubber coating, you impede its ability to disperse heat.

[@DeputatKaktus]

There are some pretty neat ideas in this video. I may I may not have used some of those myself. These solder connectors look really intriguing. What solder did you use there? Some other things I cannot really recommend. Case in point: The edge protection thing is probably one of the goofiest uses for heat shrink I have seen. If you need any edge protection, improvised or otherwise, to protect a cable running over a hard point, there are some serious doubts in my mind as to why said cable is running over (and presumably rubbing on) a hard point in the first place. Either it lacks strain relief somewhere, or there were some really questionable design decisions.

[@kentonbrown937]

Back in the '90's, I was a Raychem rep in the Southwest. What the author fails to note is that he's using adhesive-lined heat shrinkable tubing for many, if not all, the projects. It can be very hard to find, so I make my own out by using pieces of regular 2x polyolefin. I take melted hot-melt glue & spread it into a very thin sheet - the thickness depends on the app. Once it rehardens, I cut it to size & use it wrap the connection prior to sleeving it w/ the tubing. A normal heating to install also melts & seals the connection, making it very water (etc.) resistant. Of course, Raychem also sold ready-to-use heat-shrinkable, adhesive-lined butt connectors & other innovative products. At some point two decades ago, some guy that I visited in PHX bought the existing stock of Raychem solder butt connectors (& the patent rights?). Now many companies - domestic & off-shore - produce them. Amazing products!

Once, I had a service powerline tech give a 6 inch piece of 3 inch diameter thickwall shrink tube. The shrink tube was applied to an axe handle where the handle joined the axe head. This was used to protect the handle from wear from splitting wood blocks. This lasted for years until it was stolen one day. The tech said that as long as heat was applied that the shrink tube would just keep shrinking until it completely enveloped what it was wrapping, even if it was around a 1/2 pipe. I could never find this shrink tube anywhere after this. I never did see the powerline tech guy again to acquire it.

[@neepsmcfly4176]

No home Depot where you're at?

[@jssamp4442]

There is a limit to how far heat shrink tubing will shrink, the shrink ratio. Heat shrink tubing is made of polyolefin and is sold in it's expanded form. When heated it returns to it's normal, relaxed state. The difference in the expanded and relaxed states are related by the shrink ratio. 2:1 and 3:1 are standard but it can be up to 6:1 in some cases. A shrink ratio of 2:1 means it has been expanded to twice it's normal diameter, thus when heated will shrink by 1/2, back to the relaxed state. Similarly, 3:1 shrink ratio will shrink to 1/3. When shopping for heat shrink tubing, keep in mind that the diameter can be given for either the relaxed or shrunken state, but most often it refers to the expanded size. Quality product from good sources will include the diameter and shrink ratio in the product description. This is just a peek into the fascinating details of heat shrink tubing.

11:09 if you cut this up (or any factory-made solder butt splice) you'll see that the solder didn't actually flow to the inside strands - because they never get hot enough in this type butt splice. It may be OK for low-voltage solid (not stranded) wires, but never as good as a proper non-low-temperature solder with flux, followed by a flux cleanup and a marine grade heat shrink. 8:40 when applying heat to any solder type connector, it's best to do so when it's plugged in into a mating connector. This assures its geometry / pin alignment stays intact through the application of heat.

At 11:43 the Lightning cable has a broken shield. Just covering up the damaged cable with heat shrink tubing is not fixing anything. It is just disguising it. The shield is there for a reason, to protect against electromagnetic interference. If all you are doing is charging, you can get away with it but if you are using it for data you might have a problem. The USB data lines carry low voltage but very fast signals. Stray EMI can cause errors in the data or even make it unusable. Better to repair the shield if you are using it for more than just charging.
