Product Description

The HDCW Wraparound Heat Shrink Cable Repair

Sleeve is designed to repair damaged cable sheaths. It is

also suitable for use with cable joints and as additional

corrosion protection on undamaged cables.

Quick and easy to apply, it provides maximum

protection against mechanical stress, even in the most

aggressive environments. The inner wall of the sleeve is

coated with hot melt adhesive to achieve a safe and

watertight bond with the cable and give a perfect seal

when heat is applied, while a corrosion proof metal clip

is used to fully close the sleeve.

Heat shrinkable Cable Repair Sleeves are available in a

range of sizes to fit cable diameters from 10 - 140mm

and in four lengths from 250 – 1000mm.

Applications

HDCW is ideal to quickly and safely repair damaged

cable sheaths. It may also be used with joints and as

additional corrosion protection on undamaged cables.

Technical Information

HDCW is made from modified cross-linked polyolefin

with a hot-melt adhesive coated to the inner side of the

sleeve. Upon heating, the sleeve shrinks and the

adhesive melts, thereby achieving a safe and watertight

bond between the sleeve and the cable. A corrosion

proof metal clip is used to fully close the sleeve.
