While it's costly, as heatshrink goes, only the actual breaking of the plastic has occurred with mine, never has the strain relief failed. I use one long(ish) piece of it, over most of the plug, and then over a portion of otherwise uncovered cable assembly (app. 1/2 in.) and finally over the PET techflex covering. Holds the whole assembly nicely, like one big molded piece.
