Heat Shrink Size Calculator

Formula

To calculate the New Size (NS):

\[ NS = \frac{OS}{HSR} \]

Where:

\(NS\) is the New Size
\(OS\) is the Original Size
\(HSR\) is the Heat Shrink Ratio

Heat Shrink Size Definition

A heat shrink size is a size at which an object constricts to after being exposed to heat, hence the name heat shrink. This size is determined by the thermal expansion properties of the material used in the heat shrink tubing or wrap. The heat shrink ratio indicates how much the material will shrink when heat is applied.

Example Calculation

Let's assume the following values:

Original Size (\(OS\)) = 4
Heat Shrink Ratio (\(HSR\)) = 2

Using the formula:

\[ NS = \frac{4}{2} = 2 \]

The New Size is 2.
