3:1 Shrink Ratio, Dual-Wall, Flame Retardant Polyolefin Tubing
DUNBAR-3635W is an advanced, flexible, high shrink ratio, flame retardant, heat shrinkable polyolefin tube engineered for a broad range of electrical applications. This versatile tube is designed to provide robust sealing and protection, ensuring the integrity and reliability of electrical systems in various environments.
One of the key features of DUNBAR-3635W is its high shrink ratio, which allows it to conform snugly to irregular shapes and sizes, providing a secure and tight fit. This high shrink ratio is particularly advantageous for applications involving wire splices, where the tube can accommodate a wide range of splice diameters, ensuring consistent and reliable insulation. Additionally, its flexibility makes it easy to install, even in tight or confined spaces, allowing for efficient and effective application.
The flame retardant properties of DUNBAR-3635W add an extra layer of safety, making it suitable for use in environments where fire hazards are a concern. This feature ensures compliance with stringent safety standards, providing peace of mind in critical applications such as aerospace, automotive, and industrial sectors.
A standout characteristic of DUNBAR-3635W is its adhesive lining, which flows and bonds when heated. This adhesive provides a strong, durable seal that protects against moisture, dust, and other environmental contaminants. This sealing capability is crucial for maintaining the electrical performance and longevity of connections, especially in harsh or outdoor environments. The adhesive also offers excellent mechanical protection, safeguarding delicate components from physical damage and ensuring the stability of connections over time.
DUNBAR-3635W is particularly well-suited for sealing and protecting wire splices, breakouts, and connectors-to-cable transitions. In wire splices, it provides reliable insulation and strain relief, preventing electrical failures and enhancing the overall durability of the splice. For breakouts, the tube ensures that each individual wire is effectively sealed and protected, reducing the risk of short circuits or mechanical damage. In connectors-to-cable transitions, DUNBAR-3635W maintains a secure and environmentally resistant seal, preventing the ingress of contaminants and ensuring reliable electrical performance.
The tube’s flame retardant, heat shrinkable polyolefin construction also contributes to its mechanical toughness, providing resistance to abrasion, chemicals, and other physical stresses. This durability makes it suitable for use in demanding applications where reliability and longevity are paramount.
DUNBAR-3635W is available in various sizes to accommodate different diameters and lengths, providing flexibility in usage and ensuring that it can meet the specific requirements of diverse applications. Its ease of installation, combined with its robust protective properties, makes it a convenient and efficient choice for both field and workshop settings.
In summary, DUNBAR-3635W is a high-quality, flexible, high shrink ratio, flame retardant, heat shrinkable polyolefin tube with an adhesive lining that flows when heated. It is designed to seal and protect a wide variety of electrical applications, including wire splices, breakouts, and connectors-to-cable transitions. Its advanced features, including high shrink ratio, flame retardancy, adhesive lining, and mechanical toughness, make it an indispensable tool for engineers seeking reliable and effective solutions for electrical insulation and protection in various environments.
