Tyco Electronics TMS-SCE Product Information Sheet
TMS-SCE marker sleeves are designed to meet the wire and cable marking needs of manufacturers with performance requirements. Made from durable, flame retardant, radiation crosslinked heat-shrinkable polyolefin, the marks are permanent immediately after printing and remain legible even when exposed to abrasion, agressive cleaning solvents, and military fuels & oils. They meet the mark permanence requirements of SAE AS81531 4.6.2 and MIL-STD-202F both before and after shrinking.

Notes:
Some types of neoprene insulation used in jackets contain additives that can migrate to the surface and discolour the polyolefin TMS-SCE sleeves. Any discolouration is dependent on the composition of the neoprene, combined with the application conditions. Users should independently evaluate the suitability of the TMS-SCE sleeves for applications involving neoprene-jacketed cables.

All the above information, including illustrations, is believed to be reliable. Users, however, should independently evaluate the suitability of each product for their application. Tyco Electronics makes no warranties as to the accuracy or completeness of the information and disclaims any liability regarding its use. Tyco Electronics only obligations are those in the Standard Terms and Conditions of Sale for this product and in no case will Tyco Electronics be liable for any incidental, indirect or consequential damages arising from the sale, resale, use or misuse of the product. Tyco Electronics Specifications are subject to change without notice. In addition Tyco Electronics reserves the right to make changes in materials or processing, without notification to the Buyer, which do not affect compliance with any applicable specification.
