Heat Shrinkable End Caps

Shrink over terminals for insulation and strain relief.

Product Number IP52EC

  • Seal wire and pipe ends
  • Adhesive lined
  • High shrink ratio

seal cable and conduit ends / terminate electrical connections
available in either a molded end or plugged end design

Heat Shrinkable End Caps offer a simple, yet effective method for sealing crimped electrical connections, cable ends, pipe and conduit. The adhesive lined caps allow an operator to seal and insulate connections much faster than conventional methods requiring tape wrapping.

When heated, the end cap’s outer jacket shrinks while the inner wall flows into voids to create an environmentally sealed and electrically insulated connection.

Application of heat above 121°C will shrink this tubing quickly to 50% of its supplied diameter or snug down on the object it is to cover.

End caps are manufactured from crosslinked polyolefin and exhibit a dielectric strength of 600 – 1000 volts/mil. They are designed to remain tightly in place for the life of the substrate.
