3M Cold Shrink Tubing

This video by 3M Electrical shows how to apply 3M Cold Shrink Tubing safely.

3M Cold Shrink Tubing is a series of open-ended, tubular rubber sleeves, which are factory expanded and assembled onto a removable core – the cold shrink tubes are supplied for field installation in a pre-stretched condition without requirement to use any activation or installation tools.

Cold shrink tubes are available in both EPDM rubber and silicone.

The 3M video shows how to install the tubing by unwinding the removable core allowing the tube to shrink and form a waterproof cable seal. Cold Shrink is quicker, easier and safer to install than heat shrink tubing alternatives.
