Market Characteristics: Cold-shrink tubes and cold-shrink tape products for electrical and utility
In areas such as the electrical and utility markets, as well as telecommunication and industrial sectors, difficult installation conditions, such as confined or even hazardous spaces, may require different solutions to protect applications. In such settings, the use of cold-shrink tubes and cold-shrink tape is an alternative to heat-shrink tubing. Because cold-shrink products can be installed more quickly and easily, without special heating tools, the installation of cold-shrink products is safer for the user.
Cold-shrink products quickly, easily and reliably protect connecting parts, wires, joints and terminals in electrical work against moisture, UV, extreme temperatures and abrasion, using durable materials. In most applications, initial installation takes only a few minutes. Cold-shrink products also make for quick and easy maintenance and repair of wires and bundle wires.
