The Essential Characteristics Of Cold Shrink Cable Accessories In Heat-free Installation
Cold Shrink Cable Accessories is manufactured using pre-expanded silicone rubber tubing, with the insulating tubing fitted onto a removable plastic spiral support strip during factory production. On-site installation simply involves stripping the cable insulation, inserting the cold-shrink tubing, and then removing the support strip. The silicone rubber, relying on its own elasticity, shrinks and adheres to the cable surface. The entire process does not use a blowtorch for heating or an electric oven for baking; the only tools required are wire strippers and a wrench. In explosive environments where the concentration of flammable gases may reach the lower explosive limit, the flame or electric heating equipment used in traditional heat-shrink accessories could ignite the surrounding environment. The cold-shrink process fundamentally eliminates the ignition source.
