About Wrap Around Sleeve
Provided Wrap Around Sleeve is designed to quickly repair damaged cable jacketing. These sleeves can be used as insulation material on cable and splices up to 1000 volts and as jacket repair material on cable up to 35kV. Further, offered sleeves are widely used as a wrapping or covering sheet for isolation of the heat operational medium from device or pipeline, demanded in diverse industries such as oil, chemical, refinery and so on. Our offered sleeves are known for their features like proper leak proof coating, excellent durability, longer working life, heat shrink. Apart from this, our offered Wrap Around Sleeve consists of a radiation cross-linked heat shrinkable backing, coated on the inside with a proprietary formulation of heat activated adhesive or mastic.

Effortless Installation and Custom FitInstallation is simple using a heat gun or torch, and the sleeve is available in a variety of diameters and customizable lengths. The heat-shrink, wrap-around design with a stainless steel channel latch ensures a secure, tight fit on almost any low or medium voltage cable.
FAQs of Wrap Around Sleeve:
Q: How is the Wrap Around Sleeve installed on cables?
A: The Wrap Around Sleeve is installed by wrapping it around the cable and using a heat gun or torch to shrink it, activating the thermoplastic adhesive lining for a secure and waterproof seal. The stainless steel channel latch ensures a snug lock during the shrink process.
Q: What types of cables are compatible with this sleeve?
A: This sleeve is suitable for XLPE, PVC, and PILC cables, accommodating low and medium voltage applications up to 1 kV, making it ideal for a wide range of power cable repairs and joint protections.
Q: When should I use a flame retardant, wrap-around sleeve?
A: Use this wrap-around sleeve when you require enhanced flame retardance, moisture protection, and durability, particularly for repairing damaged cable jackets, restoring insulation, or sealing joints in cables exposed to challenging environments.
Q: Where can the Wrap Around Sleeve be applied?
A: The sleeve can be used both indoors and outdoors, wherever robust environmental and mechanical protection for cables is needed, such as power distribution networks, industrial plants, and utility settings.
Q: What are the benefits of using this sleeve over traditional tape or split sleeves?
A: Compared to traditional methods, this sleeve offers superior flame retardance, chemical resistance, electrical insulation, and abrasion protection, along with an easy, tool-assisted installation and a reliable, long-lasting seal.
Q: What is the process for customizing the length or diameter of the sleeve?
A: Customization is available at the point of order. You can specify required lengths and diameters, ranging from 12 mm to 120 mm, to ensure the perfect fit for your specific cable protection needs.
Q: How does the sleeve maintain electrical insulation and safety standards?
A: Crafted from cross-linked polyolefin and meeting IEC 60684-3-247 and RoHS standards, the sleeve provides excellent dielectric strength (15 kV/mm), ensuring safe and reliable insulation for electrical cables.
