RAYCHEM RFSM CABLE REPAIR SLEEVE
Description
TE Connectivity’s (TE) Raychem RFSM heat-shrinkable heavy-wall wraparound is made of thick wall woven and additionally fibre-reinforced polyolefin material with an adhesive coating. The adhesive included exhibits excellent bonding and sealing characteristics to materials commonly used in the various cable insulation and sheath construction, such as PE, lead and aluminium.
RFSM wraparounds are multi-purpose products designed to provide sealing and environmental protection also for cables in pressurized networks up to nominal pressure of 70 kPa or 10 psi. It is suitable for use on polyethylene, lead, steel and aluminum jacketed cables in underground, direct-buried, and aerial applications.
The material used for RFSM wraparounds is a fibre-reinforced composite laminate. Its outer surface is treated with a temperature-indicating system to facilitate uniform heating during installation. In addition, white lines are painted on the flat side of the rails which become visible through the channel openings as installation is completed. The sleeve has a flap which is designed to seal the longitudinal seam during installation. Both the sleeve and flap are pre-coated with hot-melt adhesive which provides a tenacious bond to the cable under repair.
Raychem wraparound RFSM is fast and easily installed and has proven its long term reliability in harsh environmental conditions.
