PVC 4" Heat shrink sleeving per metre
Supplied in either pre-cut pairs or metre lengths, the tubing is simply slid over the loom of the oar and gently heated using a hot air gun (not a hairdryer) until it shrinks tight onto the loom. Robust enough to prevent chafe from rowlocks whilst allowing the oar to rotate a move naturally whilst rowing. Supplied in two sizes - 3” diameter and 4” diameter. These are nominal size of the tubing as supplied and before shrinking. As a general guide the 4” tubing is suitable for loom sizes between 2-1/2” to 3-1/2” diameter, and the 3” tubing for looms 1-1/4” to 2-3/8” diameter. The more the tubing shrinks the greater the wall thickness thus the better protection it offers.
