Because of the large demand for preprinted heat shrink, there are many heat shrink printers on the market. Some of these printers are just modified label printers, which can't handle thick media. In order to accommodate these label printers and be able to print on heat shrink tubing with them, there is a need for flat heat shrink. In response to this need, we have added a new pre-flattened heat shrink tubing to our line. Featuring the same properties as our standard 3:1 heat shrink tubing our pre-flattened heat shrink is specially designed and spooled for use on thermal transfer label printers. Available in Yellow and White in a variety of sizes
