Cable clamp grommets offer better strain relief
Tyco Electronics has introduced Shrinkhoop heat-shrinkable cable clamp grommets, which offer significant advantages in applying strain relief to open wire bundles and cable looms.
Seal connectors against moisture and corrosion
Rayolon sealing sleeve is a re-usable, heavy-duty sleeve that offers the solution for sealing connectors and splices against moisture and corrosion
This polyvinyl fluoride material is self-extinguishing, difficult to ignite and offers resistance to water, oil, cleaning agents and oil-based solvents.
It has a broad continuous operating temperature range -40 to +130C, exhibits a high degree of resistance to ageing and filters ultraviolet light.
The product also has exceptional tear resistance and tensile strength, critical for permanent identification needs.
Additional UV protection and mark permanence can be applied by use of Tyco 130 clear 1mm overlaminate.
The tape format is ideal for colour coding and binding open wire bundles and in harness separation, and the printable label format is suitable for applying durable identification and information data to curved and flat surfaces as well as wire bundles.
For the preparation of printed labels, Tyco offers well proven hardware together with its proprietary, easy to use, powerful WinTotal software that enables identification data input to be made either manually or downloaded from design databases to single or multiple printers.
The new film tape is supplied 12.7mm wide in 30.5m rolls, and the labels are available either continuous on rolls or diecut in a choice of sizes and in all standard resistor colour codes. Request a free brochure from Tyco Electronics - Identification Products ...
