I've not heard of heat shrink with adhesive inside. I use tons of heat shrink. I buy from Electrical wholesalers, electronics shops, sometimes even builders (if I'm desperate), and as Manny mentioned, wurth also supplies, but they're very expensive

Anthony I do agree with you. The only heat shrink I know of with adhesive is the ones used on 11000 Volt and higher cable joints and Cable ends.
Or maybe I am about to learn something new.
You will never find me without Stroh or a 4x4 :D

If applied right "normal" heat shrink will seal the joint properly. (I have also never heard of an adhesive version)
