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. Seven diameter sizes will cover range of cable upto 1.1 kV for copper and aluminium conductor upto 1000 Sq. mm.
