2. Shrink wrap - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shrink_wrap

   Shrink wrap, also shrink film, is a material made up of polymer plastic film. When heat is applied, it shrinks tightly over whatever it is covering. [1] [2] [3] Heat can be applied with a handheld heat gun (electric or gas), or the product and film can pass through a heat tunnel on a conveyor.

3. Heat-shrink tubing - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heat-shrink_tubing

   Heat-shrink tubing (or, commonly, heat shrink or heatshrink) is a shrinkable plastic tube used to insulate wires, providing abrasion resistance and environmental protection for stranded and solid wire conductors, connections, joints and terminals in electrical wiring. It can also be used to repair the insulation on wires or to bundle them ...

4. Acrylonitrile butadiene styrene - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acrylonitrile_butadiene...

   Acrylonitrile butadiene styrene. Acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS) (chemical formula (C 8 H 8) x · (C 4 H 6) y · (C 3 H 3 N) z ) is a common thermoplastic polymer. Its glass transition temperature is approximately 105 °C (221 °F). [4] ABS is amorphous and therefore has no true melting point. ABS is a terpolymer made by polymerizing ...

5. Aramid - Wikipedia

   Aramid. Spools of aramid yarn destined for body armor. Fiberglass-aramid hybrid cloth. Aramid fibers, short for aromatic polyamide, are a class of heat-resistant and strong synthetic fibers. They are used in aerospace and military applications, for ballistic-rated body armor fabric and ballistic composites, in marine cordage, marine hull ...

6. Heat-shrinkable sleeve - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heat-shrinkable_sleeve

   Heat-shrinkable means just that, heat them up and they shrink, or more correctly, they recover in length. A heat-shrinkable sleeve starts out with a thick extruded poly olefin sheet (polyethylene or polypropylene) that is formulated to be cross-linkable. After extruding the thick sheet, it is taken to the "beam" where it is passed under a unit ...

7. Boat building - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boat_building

   A subdivision of the sheet plywood boat building method is known as the stitch-and-glue method, [8] where pre-shaped panels of plywood are drawn together then edge glued and reinforced with fibreglass without the use of a frame. [9] Metal or plastic ties, nylon fishing line or copper wires pull curved flat panels into three-dimensional curved ...
