Highlights
  • Quick and easy installation, no special tools and no heat required
  • Seals tight, retains resiliency and pressure
  • Resistant to acids, alkalies, UV light
  • No special tools or heat source required
  • Accommodates a wide range of cable sizes
  • Withstands temperatures of -40 to 90 degC (-40 to 194 degF)
  • Environmental sealing for communication and other non-electrical applications

This splice meets requirements of ANSI C119-1 and Western Underground Guide 2.14 for secondary splices rated up to 1 kV.

3M™ Cold Shrink Tubes are designed using a unique cold shrink delivery system. Products are supplied pre-stretched on a removable core for efficiency and ease of installation. Removal of the core (unwind) after positioning allows the product to shrink into position forming a moisture-tight seal. The live memory action of the specially formulated material ensures a permanent, durable environmental seal and insulation.

Suggested applications
  • Primary electrical insulation for all solid dielectric (rubber and plastic) up to 1kV
  • Direct burial and submersible applications
  • Insulate tape shield, wire shield or UniShield® cable
  • Environmental sealing for communications and other non-electrical applications
  • Sheath repairs
  • Physical protection and moisture sealing for air-insulated connectors and lugs such as spacer cable and lug connections to bus bar
  • Insulating secondary splices
