FAQs
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Heat Shrink 2-Way Boot used for?
It is used for:
- Two-way cable harness branch-out sealing
- Military-specification wire harness assemblies
How is it installed?
Clean and degrease the surface, position the part, then shrink it with a gas torch or a hot-air gun: keep the heat moving round it with a smooth, brushing motion so it recovers evenly without scorching. The instruction sheet in each kit gives the full sequence step by step, including where to start shrinking.
Which standards and test methods are quoted for it?
These, with the values in the Technical Specification on this page:
- ISO 4589
- IEC 60243
- ASTM D2671
- ISO 868
- UL 224
- ISO 974
