Legislation and Compliance
RoHS Certificate of Compliance
EU Directives 2011/65/EU and 2015/863 restrict the use of the 10 substances below in the manufacture of specified types of electrical equipment.
Whilst this restriction does not legally apply to components, it is recognised that component “compliance” is relevant to many customers.
RS definition of RoHS Compliance:
- The product does not contain any of the restricted substances in concentrations and applications banned by the Directive,
- and for components, the product is capable of being worked on at the higher temperatures required by lead–free soldering
The restricted substances and maximum allowed concentrations in the homogenous material are, by weight:
Substance | Concentration |
Lead | 0.1% |
Mercury | 0.1% |
PBB (Polybrominated Biphenyls) | 0.1% |
PBDE ( Polybrominated Diphenyl Ethers) | 0.1% |
Hexavalent Chromium | 0.1% |
Cadmium | 0.01% |
DEHP (Bis (2-Ethylhexl) phthalate) | 0.1% |
BBP (Benzyl butyl phthalate) | 0.1% |
DBP (Dibutyl phthalate) | 0.1% |
DIBP (Diisobutyl phthalate) | 0.1% |
The supplier of the item listed below has informed RS Components that the product is "RoHS Compliant".
RS Components has taken all reasonable steps to confirm this statement. Information relates only to products sold on or after the date of this certificate.

Product Details
Alpha Wire FIT-221 Heat Shrink Tubing
The FIT-221 range of heat-shrink tubing offers a reliable way to protect and seal electrical terminations or add extra durability to a cable.
The FIT range of heat shrinkable tubing is made from premium materials under tight manufacturing conditions. This means that FIT heat-shrink tubing has excellent physical characteristics such as wide temperature ranges and low longitudinal shrinkage.
Note
For a secure fit, it is necessary that the tubing's recovered diameter (the diameter after shrinkage) is smaller than the diameter of the area to be insulated. At the same time, the tubing's expanded diameter (the diameter before shrinkage) needs to be large enough to fit easily over the area to be insulated, as well as any connectors attached to it.
Features and Benefits
Heat shrinkable tubing
Irradiated Polyolefin
Assorted colours available
Temperature Range: -55°C to 135°C
Shrink Ratio: Approximately 2:1
Continuous lengths available
Product Application Information
FIT-221 heat-shrink tubing gives you more choices to achieve reliable, rugged cabling systems. Heatshrink provides an easy solution to colour coding wires for easy circuit identification or make fast, reliable repairs to nicked or worn insulation.

Benefits of Polyolefin
Polyolefin is a polymer which is often used in heat shrink tubing as it has excellent mechanical and electrical properties. Polyolefin is also flexible, fast-shrinking and can be manufactured in a wide range of colours.
