X-Tube Heat Shrink Wrap Tubing 39"&64" Lengths for Rod Grips-5 Color 14 Sizes

Worked out perfectly for my reels the look like new and add some nice grip to them

Bought to put on the cork of my fishing pole. Worked great! I do wish I would have gotten one size smaller though, but it looks great!

Used this for covering the heated grips on my Harley. Skin oils are notorious for deteriorating heated grips, so covering them with this works great, protects, and looks good too.

These are excellent for heavy use fishing rods. Grippy and non-slip with wet hands. You really need to order the right size according to the shrink rate of the tubing to assure good fit so know your metric system or use a conversion chart. Also, your wife’s hairdryer may not get the job done. Consider using a proper high temp heat gun to get a good solid shrink.

I was standing in the master bath using the wife’s hairdryer. The smaller upper handle went well, but took some time. As i started on the longer lower handle i could tell this was going to take a while. I started thinking, heat is heat. Wouldn’t dunking this in hot water work faster? Okay, the water getting under the wrap would be a problem, but you could maybe put the rod butt in a plastic garbage bag maybe? Okay, now i just need a large gale of hot water. I just happened to be brewing beer and had a large kettle boiling in the garage. I got a tall kitchen garbage bag, covered the rod butt, submerged it in boiling wort for short 20 seconds and it was done. It even tightened up at the cut ends. The scary part is, I still got brains i ain’t even used yet.

Great shrink great grip

40 lb salt water roller guide rods . They look great again. I used 40 Mm it was a little large and really had to shrink it down I should have gone with 35mm.

Applied with a quality heat gun using proper methods. It shrunk ok, but changed color and looked kinda muddy and old after shrinking. I wouldn’t purchase again.
