3M Cold Shrink Connector Insulators 8420 and 8430 Series are EPDM tubes designed using a unique Cold Shrink delivery system. Products are supplied pre-stretched on a removable core for efficiency and easy of installation. Removal of the core (unwind) after positioning allows the tube to shrink into position forming a moisture-tight seal. The live memory action of the specially formulated material ensures a permanent, durable environmental seal and insulation.

PRODUCT FAQ
-
What is the 3M™ Cold Shrink Insulator and what does it do?
The 3M™ Cold Shrink Insulator is a specially designed sleeve made of silicone rubber that protects electrical connections from moisture, contaminants, and electrical shorts.
-
Can you explain its typical use case or application?
This product is widely used in power cable joints to provide reliable insulation to low- to medium-voltage cables. It can also be used in telecommunications, automotive, and aerospace industries where sealing protection against harsh environments is highly desirable.
-
Why should I choose this product over other types of insulators?
The 3M™ Cold Shrink Insulator has many benefits such as easy installation without heat or special tools required, superior physical strength combined with excellent resistance against UV rays and ozone.
-
How do I install it on my cables?
Simply peel away the inner liner band exposing the adhesive band on one side then wrap the insulator around your cable joint. Next pull out inner core allowing silicon product casing to contract exactly over desired area for an accurate seal approved by various standards like IEEE standard 404-2016 & ICEAS75568-1 -2020 etc without any messiness created by liquid resin type products..
The 3M™ Cold Shrink Insulator 8429-15 is a high-quality insulating solution designed to provide reliable protection for electrical connections. With a size range of 900-1000 kcmil (500 mm²), this insulator is suitable for a wide range of applications. Each case contains 10 units, making it a cost-effective choice for both small and large-scale projects.
One of the key features of the 3M™ Cold Shrink Insulator 8429-15 is its cold shrink technology. This innovative design eliminates the need for heat or special tools during installation, making it quick and easy to use. Simply position the insulator over the connection, and it will shrink to create a tight seal, providing excellent electrical insulation and protection against moisture, dust, and other environmental factors.
The 3M™ Cold Shrink Insulator 8429-15 is made from high-quality silicone rubber, which offers excellent resistance to UV radiation, ozone, and extreme temperatures. This ensures long-lasting performance and durability, even in harsh conditions.
