4 Materials and characteristics
Sleeving shall be made from materials that ensure the finished sleevings conform to the product standard.
4.1 Material types
See product standards.
4.2 Finish
The sleeving, both before and after unrestricted shrinkage, shall be free from bubbles, pinholes, creases
and other defects that may affect performance.

4.3 Dimensions
See product standard.
4.4 Shrink ratio
See product standard.
4.5 Temperature range
See product standard.
4.6 Shelf life
The use by date is the shelf life when stored under the conditions recommended in Annex A.
The use by date shall be the guaranteed minimum storage time for which the sleeving retains the “as
supplied” internal diameter. Following unrestricted shrinkage in accordance with the product standard,
the sleeving shall conform to the internal diameter and wall thickness requirements as specified in the
product standard.
In the event that the shelf life specimens fail the requirements of the product standard, delivery of any
product still held by the manufacturer or distributors shall be halted until samples of each batch in
storage are tested to confirm that they satisfy the original recovery qualification requirements, after
which release can be resumed. In the event of failure the Approval Authority is to be notified.
4.7 Colours
See product standards for available colours. The colours shall be a reasonable match to one of those
specified in IEC 60304.
4.8 Standard cutting tolerances for cut lengths of sleeving
