Specifications

Product

connector diameter ratios dictate the need, foam strips serve as a dimensional spacer between smaller coax cables and the

minimum sealing diameter of the cold shrink tubing. The cold shrink tubing assembly serves as an outer seal which seals on the

O.D. of the foam strip or coax cable. The coax cable seal kit provides a moisture seal when installed on the coax cable/connector

combinations listed in the “Application Chart.” It is compatible with the coax cables and N or 7/16 DIN connectors.

Performance Tests

One of the critical characteristics for cold shrink tubing is "permanent set," which is the percentage of the tubing’s original

stretched deformation not recovered in a given period of time after the deforming force (plastic support core) has been removed.

3M tests both accelerated and long-term permanent set in the product’s expanded state to see that the rubber retains sufficient

elastic memory. Field experience, combined with laboratory test data, has shown that the EPDM cold shrink rubber compounds

exhibit excellent long-term memory characteristics. Because the coax cable/connector is larger than the original inside diameter

Series tubing will seal within minutes at 30° F (-1° C).
