Cross-linked polyolefin tubing outperforms PVC. It's stronger and won't burn like PVC. The heat-activated adhesive lining seals out salt water, oil, acids, and sunlight while relieving strain. The nylon insulator, favored by experts, offers Marine Grade™ protection against sunlight, water, oil, chemicals, vibration, and cut-through damage. UL Listed and CSA Recognized. With the highest shrink ratio, it shrinks to 1/3 of its original size at 257°F/125°C. Operating temperature ranges from 40°C to 110°C. ANCOR heat shrink connectors have built-in heat-activated adhesive in the tubing sleeve. They shrink to form a watertight seal, providing ultimate vibration and strain relief. Tinned for corrosion resistance, made of pure copper for maximum current flow, and have a brazed seam for maximum strength. Available in different wire ranges and quantities per pack: 12-10 (3-5mm) in 500 and 100 packs (Part No. 309202 and 309299), 16 - 14 (1-2mm) in 100 and 500 packs (Part No. 309199 and 309102), 22 - 18 (0.3-0.8mm) in 500 and 100 packs (Part No. 309002 and 309099).
Using these Ancor heat shrink butt connectors is easy. First, select the appropriate connector based on your wire range. Strip the ends of the wires you want to connect. Insert the stripped wires into the connector. Then, use a heat source like a heat gun to apply heat evenly around the connector. Once it reaches 257°F/125°C, it will shrink to form a tight, watertight seal. Make sure to wear heat-resistant gloves when using the heat gun to avoid burns. When storing these connectors, keep them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and chemicals. Check the connectors periodically for any signs of damage or wear. If you notice any issues, replace them to ensure a reliable connection.
