I purchased some 14AWG CL2 Rated 4-Conductor Loud Speaker Cable from monoprice and was wondering
what would be the size of flextech I need and the same for heat shrink tube
I aslo purchased Speaker Banana Plugs - Closed Screw Type [JX-74043]
For heat shrink, I usually get 3:1 that is 2x larger than the final diameter (or thereabouts). 3:1 gives you more room for error than 2:1 and it usually fits over connectors after the fact.
If you get the standard Flexo PET, I also recommend a hot knife (soldering iron with a knife tip) to cut it. Otherwise, it frays badly. They have clean cut and other products, but they are more expensive.
Size is a bit of guessing, but size the small diameter to the diameter of the wire. Use a tape measure or rule and get a best guess. It does not have to be exact. They sell other sizes than the one I linked to.
