Why Choose the Heat Shrink Cable Termination Kit?

05 13, 2025
Posted By: Peter

Heat shrink terminations have become the industry standard for medium-voltage cable accessories due to their robust performance in harsh environments. Unlike cold-shrink alternatives, heat shrink kits deliver:

  • Proven Electrical Performance – The ZnO-based stress-control layer smooths electrical fields, reducing partial discharge and extending insulation life.
  • Outstanding Environmental Sealing – Upon heating, the tubing conforms to conductor irregularities, creating a watertight, gas-tight barrier against moisture ingress.
  • Chemical and UV Resistance – Manufactured from non-tracking, UV-stable polyolefin or EVA compounds, these terminations withstand acid rain, salt spray, and prolonged sunlight exposure.
  • Cost-Effective Installation – Field-proven shrink ratios and clear marking simplify positioning; no special molds are required.
