Marking
 
   
  F4 is a very flexible, thin wall, flame retardant, heat-shrinkable polyolefin tubing
  that is UL recognized VW-2
   
   
  F4 is recommended for all general purpose applications for flame retardant tubing
  such as insulating, color coding, bundling or environmental protection, especially
  when space is at a premium and low shrink temperatures are required.
   
  -55ºC, to +125ºC
  90ºC
  Spool
  Sumitube F4 is surface printed with recognized UL marking as follows:
  "SUMITOMO-K SUMITUBE F4 125ºC VW-1-F"
