Cold Shrink Tubing

Cold Shrink Tubing Silicone

Gala Cold Shrink Tube are open ended, tubular Silicone sleeves that are factory expanded and assembled onto a removable core. The core is removed after the tube has been position for installation over and inline connection, terminal lug etc. allowing the tube to shrink and form a water resistance seal. The insulating tube is made of high quality Silicone which does not contain chloride or sulfur. Nine diameter sizes will cover range of cable upto 1.1 kV for copper and aluminium conductor upto 1000 Sq. mm.

Features & Benefits:

Simple and fast installation, no tools required.
Accommodates a wide range of cable sizes.
The material maintains a tight seal and
consistent flexibility throughout its service life
No mastic or tape required.
Resists acids, alkalis, and fungus.
Good thermal stability.
Operating temperature range -40^oC to 105^oC.
Water resistance, meets the water seal
requirements of ANSI C119.1.

All dimesions are in mm
