Applications
The Volsun RUBLS-CAP End Caps protect cables, pipes and other cylindrical objects from exposure to moisture, contamination, corrosion, ozone, ultra-violet radiation, physical contact and other environmental hazards.
Installation
The Volsun RUBLS-CAP End caps install quickly and cleanly without flame or grease. Cold Shrink end caps are factory expanded on removable inner-supporting plastic cores. Once the end cap is positioned for installation around the end of a cable, the supporting core is unwound and removed. With the core removed, the live-memory action of the specially formulated material shrinks the end cap into position. The constant radial pressure of the Cold Shrink material ensures adorable environmental seal. The Cold Shrink material resists abrasion, fungus, acids or alkalis, and retains its resiliency for years. Freezing or overheating due to ambient temperatures encountered during shipping or storage does not impair the end caps.
Removal
Once installed, the Volsun RUBLS-CAP End Caps can be easily removed from the cable. Simply lift the edge of the end cap; slice the material with a utility knife and the end
cap comes off cleanly, leaving no adhesive residue or grease.
Maintenance
Volsun RUBLS-CAP End Caps are stable under normal storage conditions. Normal storage and stock Rotation is recommended.
