The Ancor Male Heat Shrink Snap Plugs are designed to provide a durable and reliable solution for creating secure electrical connections, especially in harsh environments. These plugs are constructed with cross-linked polyolefin tubing, which offers significant advantages over standard PVC tubing. Thanks to its construction, polyolefin tubing does not combust easily, enhancing the safety of your electrical connections.
These plugs feature an advanced heat-activated adhesive lining, which acts as a barrier to protect against external elements such as saltwater, oil, acids, and exposure to sunlight. The adhesive serves an additional purpose by providing strain relief, which helps maintain the integrity of the connection through various stresses.
The plugs are fitted with a robust nylon insulator. This material is the preferred choice for applications that require resistance to harsh conditions including sunlight, water, oil, chemicals, vibration, and potential cut-through damage. By meeting the standards to be UL Listed and CSA Recognized, the quality of these plugs is assured to be in line with industry best practices.
Key features of the Ancor Male Heat Shrink Snap Plugs include:
- High shrink ratio, shrinking to one-third of their original size for a tight fit
- Wide operating temperature range of 40°C to 110°C (104°F to 230°F)
- A shrink temperature of 257°F (125°C) ensures a fast and reliable shrink fit
- Heat-activated adhesive for a waterproof seal and strain relief
- Tinned for corrosion resistance, providing improved longevity
- Made with pure copper for superior current flow
- Brazed seam construction for additional tensile strength
