Which Techflex sizes are the most useful

[Truthunter]

I need to order some and was wondering what sizes would be best for our applications?

My install consists of 4ga power cable, 2 & 4 channel Stinger 6000 interconnects, and 14awg stinger pro speaker wire.

Good topic.. Made me search. I found this thread on it....

I would love to get some in the house in some different colors.. Maybe some nice plaid patterns.
Steve really kicked up his Mazda re-wire to the next level on the sexy wiring scale with some good looking flex.

Sizes

The most common sizes used in our builds are 1/2", 3/8", 1/4", and sometimes 1/8".
Here's some pics of all four sizes together in black standard Techflex.







1/2"




3/8"




1/4"

Thanks for the link... Looks like some 3/8" - 1/2" is all I would need.

Actually, after some reading, I think I will try the woven version: http://www.cablemarkers.com/pdf/techflex/f6w.pdf

Oooh - that's purdy

That'd work.. Plus if doing a bundle of different stuff, such as signal plus speaker, that'd probably be great if room allowed for all to be bundled. I've used their regular split flex for behind the TV for all the junk and my wife couldn't believe the difference since you can see the wiring through the tv mount table. Makes it easy for stuffing cables of different sizes.

Check with furryletters, he shows 3/8" and 1/2" in stock...he's the best supplier for TechFlex http://www.ebay.com/sch/furryletter...TRK:MEFSXS:MESOI&_trksid=p2053788.m1543.l2654

Thanks Alan! He's got great prices on the woven version... almost half of what it's sold for on Amazon

Anyone ever put a sizing chart together? I'd be curious what gauge wires fit which sizes of heatshrink.

Searching for sizes and this thread popped up. Anyone ever put a chart together for wire sizes? I have this chart but would be much easier if it listed by wire gauge size.
