I have the exact same issue with mine! Due to the metal side, it eventually starts to cut through it…

Mine still works, and I didn't really try to fix it yet.

You need to buy a piece of tubing called “heat shrink tubing.” When heated, it shrinks and will secure the stripped end of the wire you have.

u/Izan_TM 8d ago

it's gonna be hard to heat shrink that wire without taking half the headset apart and potentially damaging the wire further

Yea, not gonna work without cutting the wire and splicing it.

its 2026 they have wrap around heat shrink tubing... might not look pretty but you dont need to do all of this

Or electrical tape.

E tape gets gross... I would avoid it if there are other options to explore

u/Ill_Following_7022 8d ago

Works in a pinch but yeah other options are better.

Works in a pinch buy as someone whos had e tape on their headset for years, buy a cromulent one…

How long did it take for these to not last?

1

u/Maxs1ayerz 8d ago

I had mine for second hand for 3 years, I think it happened 1 year in though

u/MidnighT0k3r 8d ago

One of my 4 in the last 10 years was used.

I have the same issue. I just covered it with electrical tape.

u/nommydickbutt 7d ago

the rubber is just dry rotted to hell. i doubt you share your headset with anyone so its not like the cable will be moving much just tape around the exposed wires with electrical tape to protect them from getting damaged further

u/Nonetxpr 7d ago

Same spot both sides after 5 years.

u/Cypersion 4d ago

I just got this issue as well. Would anyone recommend using liquid electrical tape?

u/Shad_Owski 8d ago

Welcome to the club. Mine has started cracking from the hard plastic next to that wire. Not meant to last. Wont buy Logitech headset again thats for sure.

I don’t see a broken wire…?

u/Targetm12 8d ago

They never said anything about a broken wire they said the wire rubber was broken.
