Heat-Shrinkable Insulators

Heavy-Wall Shrink-Kon™

Heat-Shrinkable End Cap & Boots

When it comes to moisture-proofing connections and terminations, T&B’s heat-

shrinkable tubing, boots, and end caps have proven themselves over years of service

to the industry. Made of thermally stabilized cross-linked polyolefin, these heat-

shrinkable insulators can be used over lead, steel, aluminum, copper, standard

plastic and elastomeric insulating materials.

T&B heat-shrinkable insulators are designed to be easy to use. They provide an

appropriate level of insulation and abrasion protection.

Where applicable, T&B heat-shrink insulators are UL Listed. Also, all standard size

insulators have an internally applied adhesive sealant.

T&B Heat-Shrinkable Insulators Offer:

Redesigned for superior durability and performance!

Featured Products Include:

• Heavy-duty protection

• A full range of sizes from #14 to 2500 kcmil

• Field-proven reliability

• Internal sealant provides protection against moisture

• High Shrink Ratio HSHR Series with 6:1 shrink

ratio designed for applications with extreme

differences between cable, connector, and

back shell sizes

• Flame Retardant HSFR Series provides

maximum flame retardancy

Seals and insulates cable ends at a 600V rating. Installs fast, while providing insulation

resistance to moisture, corrosion, and abrasion. The extra thickness at the tip of the end

cap prevents sharp ends of the cable from puncturing the seal.

Seals and insulates multiconductor cables and conduit with the same cost savings

and superior properties of T&B’s heat-shrinkable tubing. These boots replace time-

consuming tapes, epoxies, encapsulations and dips. The boots are internally coated

with sealant.

Overview

Shrink-Kon™ — Medium-Wall Tubing

More flexible than heavy-wall products, with excellent resistance to impact and abrasion.

•Seals and protects cable splices and terminations

•Thermoplastic adhesive liner guaranties complete environmental protection and insulation

Shrink-Kon Heat-Shrinkable Tubing

TM

Shrink-Kon™ — Thin-Wall Tubing

Manufactured from stabilized Polyolefin, these insulators are used to insulate bare

Sta-Kon®and Color-Keyed®connectors and splices. They also provide a degree of

strain relief and may be used to harness wires. Available in cut pieces or reels.

Featured Products Include:

•Standard non-lined 2:1 thin wall tubing

•3:1 adhesive lined thin-wall CPO-A Series provide excellent flexibility

with environmental sealing capability

•Extra clear heat shrink for use on power connections and data connections

Covers

These new insulating covers provide hard-shell insulated protection for “H” type compression taps and splices, and, because there is no taping required, you

get uniform quality and appearance each time. The exclusive locking design provides the range-taking capability. Only six H-tap insulating catalogue numbers

accommodate the range of 6 AWG–1000 kcmil in the main and 12 AWG–500 kcmil.

•Hard-shell outer covers guard against impact...

inner seal keeps out dust

•Installs quickly and easily without special tools...

simply snaps together

•Eliminates time-consuming taping

•Provides high-quality, neat, uniform installations

•Range-taking design reduces inventory

Custom-Cut Length of Bulk Packaging –

Thin-Wall Tubing

To best meet your requirements for thin-wall heat-shrinkable tubing, Thomas & Betts welcomes the

opportunity to cut bulk reels of tubing. Minimum order requirement is one standard bulk reel, and

multiples thereof. See table for bulk reel length by size. Tubing cannot be cut smaller than 1/2 in.

When ordering custom-cut lengths of tubing, order by piece, not by length. To determine the

minimum number of pieces to order, simply figure how many pieces of a specific length of tubing

is required to make use of a complete bulk reel.

Once you try it, you’ll wonder what you ever did

without it! Quick and easy insulation, no heat or

adhesive required!

You won’t believe how easy it is to use Shrink-KonTM Self-Fusing Insulation Tape to insulate splices,

terminations and connections. Forget the heat gun and adhesive. Two layers of this self-

amalgamating tape form a flexible dielectric layer that protects your connection against moisture,

humidity and corrosion. The tape offers high tensile strength, enabling you to stretch the first layer of

tape to form a solid, compressed, watertight seal. Apply the second layer with minimal to no stretch,

and your insulation job is complete!

• Just two layers form a moisture-proof,

abrasion-resistant, dielectric seal

• Suitable for high and low voltage applications

• Smooth filler putty compound available for use under tape

when insulating bolted or dimensionally inconsistent splices

and terminations

Standard package is rolls. Order by rolls; not by feet.

Installation Guidelines

Specifications

1. The cable, etc., should be relatively clean and free of greases, oils,

and other foreign substances.

2. It is best to overlap each wrap of tape by 1/4 to 1/2 the width for the best seal.

3. When using heat-shrinkable products, most applications require only 1 or 2 layers of tape

prior to sliding tubing in place.

4. Shrink the tubing, cap, boot, etc., following the installation procedure

for the applicable heat-shrinkable part.

To seal the junction or crotch of an application requiring two or more cables, conductors, etc.

without a common jacket

1. Apply the overlapped 1 or 2 layers around each cable, conductor, etc.,

at the same distance from the connector, or ball up the sealant and

press into crotch or junction of the joint.

2. Apply 2 overlapping wraps over the bundle.

3. Slide the expanded heat-shrinkable part over the joint and shrink.

Standard package is reels. Order by reel; not by feet.

• Available in a 25-ft. roll

Shrink-Kon Heat-Shrinkable Tubing

TM

This first-generation multi-splice insulator is designed to give you a quick, dependable means of

protecting medium-voltage motor stub splice connections up to 5kV. You can install it in seconds

simply by pushing the cover and boot together. Once installed, it completely waterproofs the

connection and provides excellent protection against abrasion or mechanical abuse.

One size reduces inventory

The insulator accommodates wire sizes #8–2/0 AWG having outer diameters of 0.375 in. to

0.840 in. This range-taking feature should accommodate all of your medium-voltage motor

hookups.

Inspectable and reusable

The insulator consists of just two parts: an elastomer boot and thermoplastic cap. The boot has

two tapered cable entry legs that fit snugly around the cable to form a watertight seal. The legs

are designed to be trimmed during installation to fit the required cable size tightly. The cap

simply pushes into a groove in the boot — and pulls out easily when you want to inspect the

connection. Removal of the cap does not disturb the seal around the cables, nor does it interrupt

the bolted splice connection.

Quality engineered

The boot is made of flexible, abrasion-resistant elastomer, and the cap is made of high impact-

resistant thermoplastic — high-performance materials you can depend on. Use the insulator for

pigtail applications in motor junction boxes, manholes or wherever a waterproof, impact-

resistant insulator is required.

Installation Tools

Remove any oil, grease, water, dirt, etc., by wiping the cable ends and connector.

Remove all sharp edges and burrs from connector.

Center tubing over splice connector.

Use the light blue outer portion of the flame when using the SIT-1 torch. Do not hold the torch still in

one position or concentrate the hot inner flame of the torch on the tubing; this may cause scorching.

Begin heating tubing in the center. Recover the central portion of the tubing first by heating around the

circumference of the splice. (Keep heat source moving constantly around the circumference of the

insulator to ensure uniform shrinkage of the insulator.)

Continue heating around the tubing and out toward one end. Move torch around the tubing until

one end is completely recovered.

Repeat the above procedure on the opposite end of the splice, again working the source from the

center outward and around the tubing.

Installation is complete when the tubing conforms to splice and

sealant flow is apparent at both ends.

Typical Specifications

Insulating and sealing of all 600V, in-line cable splices from #16 AWG through 1000 kcmil shall be

done in accordance with the instructions provided with the Shrink-Kon™ shrinkable insulators,

catalogue Series HS.

The connector insulator must be made of thermally stabilized, homogeneous polyolefin having

internally applied sealant. It must have Underwriter’s Laboratories Listing (UL 90°C, 600V) and be

approved for the use. It must be usable without additional covering or adhesive both indoors and

outdoors, in overhead, direct burial, or submersed applications at rated voltage. It must not be

adversely affected by moisture, ozone, oils, fuels, mild acids and alkalies, or ultraviolet light. It must

be compatible with all commonly used cable jacket materials, including rubber, plastic, lead, steel,

aluminum and copper.

Factory-Applied Sealant

A standard sealant is coated on the entire inside surface of most precut sizes. Tubing is also

available without sealant — consult factory. The sealant is rated for continuous 90ºC operation on

non-pressurized cable systems and aids in sealing out moisture and corrosion.

Cross Reference

The cost differential in the installation of T&B heat-

shrinkable tubing over taping can result in up to a 34%

savings in labor and overhead. For example, on a 2/0

aluminum splice, heat-shrinkable tubing can be installed in

3 minutes, versus 10 minutes of taping. In addition to the

direct cost reduction, there are the advantages of assured

uniformity of wall thickness and moisture sealing.

Step 1 Measure cable diameter and from Table 1, select corresponding section on molded sleeve. Cut off remaining sections of housing to size required.

Example: If cable OD is 0.270 in., it falls withing the “C” range – cut between “B” and “C”.

Step 2 Thoroughly clean approximately 8 in. of the Line side cable to be inserted using the wiper provided. Apply lubricant to cable and

small hole in Line side (receptacle) housing.

Step 3 Insert cable through the small hole in the housing, and push through sufficiently to allow for stripping of insulation.

Step 4 Strip wires 3/4 in. for wire 14 AWG through 10 AWG, 3/8 in. for wire szes 8 AWG through 4 AWG. (DO NOT PENCIL INSULATION).

Crimp on Line side socket. (Refer to Table 2 for suggested tool and die.)

Step 5 Apply lubricant lightly to the outside of the metal fuse socket.

Step 6 Place wooden dowel in the socket. Place the free end of the dowel against a firm surface and push the housing forward

until it snaps into a locking position. Wipe off any excess lubricant.

Step 7 Repeat the above steps with the Load housing.

Step 8 Insert a 13/32 in. by 1-1/2 in. HRC fuse, 600 Volt 30 Amp. max. (Bussmann KTK series or equivalent), in the Load side housing.

CAUTION: WHEN THE FUSE IS FULLY SEATED, NOT MORE THAN 1/16 IN. OF THE FUSE BARREL WILL BE VISIBLE BETWEEN THE FUSE END CAP

AND THE HOUSING. DO NOT APPLY LUBRICANT ON THE FUSE.

Step 9 Plug the Load side and Line side housings together. CAUTION: WHEN PROPERLY MATED, THE SEAM BETWEEN THE HOUSINGS

SHOULD NOT EXCEED 1/32 IN.

Step 10 The connection is now complete. For best results, anchor the Line side wire, so that if the Load side wire is pulled

(perhaps someone has knocked over a pole), the kit will come apart.
