The present invention relates to a method for continuously manufacturing UHMWPE products comprising:—providing a counter-rotating twin-screw extruder;—feeding UHMWPE powder into a hopper of said counter-rotating twin-screw extruder;—transporting said UHMWPE powder from said hopper through said counter-rotating twin-screw extruder to an outlet of said counter-rotating twin-screw extruder;—further transporting said UHMWPE powder from said outlet of said counter-rotating twin-screw extruder to an entrance of a heat-controlled tooling system for defining the shape of UHMWPE products;—withdrawing said UHMWPE products from an outlet of said heat-controlled tooling system.

Described is a peelable heat shrink tube composed of a fluororesin and having a determination coefficient calculated from [Equation 1] below using an elastic modulus ratio (%) of more than 0, but 0.90 or less:

[00001]$\begin{array}{cc}\mathrm{Determination}\mathrm{coefficient}={\left(\mathrm{correlation}\mathrm{coefficient}\right)}^2={\left[\frac{\left(\mathrm{covariance}\right)}{\left(\mathrm{standard}\mathrm{deviation}\mathrm{of}X\right)\left(\mathrm{standard}\mathrm{deviation}\mathrm{of}Y\right)}\right]}^2& \left[\mathrm{Equation}1\right]\end{array}$

where X, Y and covariance represent the following: X: Proportion of the position of each point, where the elastic modulus was measured, from the interior of the tube Y: Elastic modulus ratio in each region Covariance: Average of the product of deviations of X and Y.
