Advantages And Disadvantages Of Cold Shrink Cable Accessories

Today we will talk about the advantages and disadvantages of Cold Shrink Cable Accessories.

Let's talk about the advantages of cold shrink cable accessories first: 1. As we all know, heat shrink cable accessories need to be heated with fire, and when bent or moved, heat shrink cable accessories will be in danger of separation between the internal layers of the accessories; cold shrink cable accessories not only do not need to be heated with fire, but also rely on elastic compression force, and will not be in danger of separation between the internal layers of the accessories due to bending and movement.

2. Cold shrink cable accessories do not require fire or special tools, and do not require open flames or heating during installation. It is convenient, time-saving and labor-saving. You only need to gently pull out the wire core inside, and the elastic body will shrink quickly and tighten to the required installation location.

3. It has good anti-fouling, aging resistance, hydrophobicity and hydrophobic migration performance, and has good cold resistance. It is suitable for high altitude areas, cold areas, humid areas, salt spray areas, heavily polluted areas, and some places where open flames and other heat sources are prohibited.

4. The sealant is used to bond the connection parts to achieve overall sealing, and to prevent and avoid operating accidents caused by the atmospheric environment.

Next, let's talk about the disadvantages of cold shrink cable accessories: 1. Due to the additional expansion process in the production process and the need for expansion and contraction characteristics, the production cost of cold shrink cable accessories is higher.

2. The storage period is short, generally half a year to one year. Because the cold shrink cable accessories are pre-expanded, the inner support strips may fall off or the silicone material may not shrink in place due to fatigue when stored for a long time.

3. The installation process of cold shrink cable accessories must be strictly operated according to the instructions, and the order cannot be changed, otherwise bubbles are likely to appear during the shrinking process, so the requirements for installers are also higher.

So from the current market trend, cold shrink cable accessories have been recognized and accepted by more and more customers, and are becoming more and more popular.

The above is all I want to talk about today, I hope it will be helpful to everyone.
