IEC 60684-3-116:2024 is available as IEC 60684-3-116:2024 RLV which contains the International Standard and its Redline version, showing all changes of the technical content compared to the previous edition.
IEC 60684-3-116:2024 gives the requirements for non-heat-shrinkable sleeving, extruded from compounds based on polychloroprene elastomer. This sleeving has been found suitable for temperatures up to 95 °C. Sleeving of this type is normally available with internal diameters up to 25 mm, and in the following opaque colours: black, brown, red, orange, yellow, green, blue, violet, grey, white and pink. Sizes or colours other than those specifically listed in this document can possibly be available as custom items. These items are considered to comply with this document if they comply with the other property requirements listed in Table 2. Materials which conform to this specification meet established levels of performance. However, the selection of a material by a user for a specific application will be based on the actual requirements necessary for adequate performance in the application and not based on the specification alone. This fourth edition cancels and replaces the third edition published in 2010 and constitutes a technical revision. This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition:
a) update of clause references in Table 2;
b) addition of resistance to fluids test.

Overview
EN IEC 60684-3-116:2024 - Flexible insulating sleeving (Sheets 116 & 117) specifies requirements for non‑heat‑shrinkable, extruded sleeving made from polychloroprene elastomer for general‑purpose electrical insulation. This fourth edition (replacing the 2010 edition) is harmonized with IEC 60684-3-116:2024 and is published by CLC/CENELEC. The standard covers thin‑wall (Sheet 116) and thick‑wall (Sheet 117) extruded polychloroprene sleeving, normally supplied in internal diameters up to 25 mm and a range of opaque colours.
Key topics and technical requirements
- Material and type: Extruded, non‑heat‑shrinkable sleeving based on polychloroprene elastomer (general purpose).
- Temperature rating: Suitable for service temperatures up to 95 °C.
- Dimensional requirements: Internal diameters and wall thickness limits are specified (see Table 1 of the standard); measurements to nearest 0.05 mm. Non‑standard diameters must meet wall‑thickness rules referenced in the document.
- Colours: Standard opaque colours include black, brown, red, orange, yellow, green, blue, violet, grey, white and pink. Custom colours/sizes may be accepted if they meet the property requirements in Table 2. Colour designation follows IEC 60757 where applicable.
- Performance properties: Property requirements and test criteria are set out (Table 2), including mechanical and physical characteristics specific to the sleeving type.
- Resistance to fluids: This edition adds a resistance to selected fluids test (Table 3), expanding assessment for real‑world contamination exposure. Sample dimensions for this test are in Table 4.
- Conformance & testing: Product qualification is normally based on test results from 10 mm internal diameter sleeving; colour and colour fastness to light are qualified for all colours.
Applications
- Insulation and protection of wires, cables and harnesses in electrical and electronic assemblies.
- General‑purpose protective sleeving where flexible, extruded elastomeric insulation is required up to 95 °C.
- Environments requiring defined dimensional tolerances and fluid resistance (automotive, industrial equipment, consumer appliances, wiring looms).
Who should use this standard
- Manufacturers of insulating sleeving and elastomeric tubing.
- Component and harness OEMs specifying sleeving for assemblies.
- Test laboratories and quality assurance teams performing compliance checks.
- Procurement and compliance officers ensuring supplied parts meet IEC/CENELEC requirements.

FOREWORD
1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising
all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote international
co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To this end and
in addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications, Technical Reports,
Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as “IEC Publication(s)”). Their
preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested in the subject dealt with
may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-governmental organizations liaising
with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely with the International Organization for
Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by agreement between the two organizations.
2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international
consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from all
interested IEC National Committees.
3) IEC Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC National
Committees in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the technical content of IEC
Publications is accurate, IEC cannot be held responsible for the way in which they are used or for any
misinterpretation by any end user.
4) In order to promote international uniformity, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC Publications
transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications. Any divergence between
any IEC Publication and the corresponding national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated in the latter.
5) IEC itself does not provide any attestation of conformity. Independent certification bodies provide conformity
assessment services and, in some areas, access to IEC marks of conformity. IEC is not responsible for any
services carried out by independent certification bodies.
6) All users should ensure that they have the latest edition of this publication.
7) No liability shall attach to IEC or its directors, employees, servants or agents including individual experts and
members of its technical committees and IEC National Committees for any personal injury, property damage or
other damage of any nature whatsoever, whether direct or indirect, or for costs (including legal fees) and
expenses arising out of the publication, use of, or reliance upon, this IEC Publication or any other IEC
Publications.

indispensable for the correct application of this publication.
