KE232082476, 3M Cold Shrink Tubing, Black 67.8mm Sleeve Dia. x 229mm Length, 8420 Series

3M Rubber Cold Shrink Connector Insulator

The 3M 8420 series black 229mm cold shrink connector insulator is an open-ended, tubular, rubber sleeve. It is factory expanded and assembled onto a removable core. The core is removed after the tube is positioned for installation over an inline connection and terminal lug. This allows the tube to shrink and form a water-resistant seal. The insulating tube is made of EPDM rubber, which contains no chlorides or sulphurs. It is available in diameter sizes that cover a range of cable up to 1000V for copper and aluminium conductors.
