Hello, i was looking to order some sleeve for an upcoming project. I'm unsure of how the mesh should fit and such. Im looking to cover two cables that are 23awg in diameter.

So i want to know the suggested mesh sleeving size, and what size heat shrink to terminate it with?

1/8" is the smallest size I've seen for techflex - and that should be plenty big for any two wires.

1/8" should probably work fine for the heat shrink too.

What is your project?

I agree with the previous poster that 1/8" should be fine. When I just built my bias meter connection cables, 1/8" even worked well with two 18awg solid core wires so 23awg will be no problem. Also, based on what I read on the Techflex website, they don't make anything smaller than 1/8" diameter.
