The 3M™ Cold Shrink Rubber Splice Kit contains all the materials (except connectors and optional ground strap) required to construct three single conductor splices on tape shield, wire shield or UniShield® cables.

The 3M™ Cold Shrink Rubber Splice Kits are designed for use with 3M™ Scotchlok™ Series Inline Compression Connectors 10000, 11000 and 20000, or any UL listed inline compression connector meeting the dimensional requirements for maximum connector lengths.

Suggested applications
  • For splicing 5 kV and 8 kV shielded, solid dielectric, power cables
  • For solid dielectric (XLP, EPR, HMPE) cables
  • Indoor or outdoor locations
  • Direct burial
