Track Feeder Connections Using 3M Cold ShrinkÂ
3M Cold Shrink cable joints require no hot-work permit or special tools for installation – Cold Shrink is specified for rail cable sealing, insulation and protection and are approved by Network Rail for live rail terminations and inline cable joints for DC track feeder cable applications.
3M Cold Shrink Tubes are made from EPDM rubber, expanded onto a removable supporting plastic core providing a permanent radial seal, expanding and contracting with the cable under load conditions.
