- Environmental sealing for communication and other non-electrical applications
3M™ Cold Shrink Connector Insulators WF Series are open-ended, tubular, rubber sleeves which are factory expanded and assembled onto a removable core. The core is removed after the tube has been positioned over an inline connection, terminal lug, etc., allowing the tube to shrink and form a water-resistant seal. A variety of sizes cover a range of 1000/2000 volt cable.

The insulating tube is made of EPDM rubber, which contains no chlorides or sulfides. A variety of diameter sizes will cover a range of 1000/2000 volt cable from #4 AWG through 2000 kcmil copper conductors and #4 AWG through 1500 kcmil aluminium conductors. To extend the useful life of this product in applications which are continuously exposed to high levels of ultra-violet radiation, overwrap with Scotch® Super 33+™ Vinyl Electrical Tape or Scotch® Self-Fusing Silicone Rubber Electrical Tape 70.
