Electrical wiring faults can cause major issues inviting heavy investments, long-term inconvenience and significant production loss. It is for the cables to suit the operational and service environment. Though cables are laid according the best plan for the particular objective but cable repair is a common need in most of the large size installations. As the industries are getting more conscious about the repairing cost of electrical installation, engineers are adopting the advanced technologies for low-cost cable repair. Here comes the role of heat shrink technology that makes the cable repair products more dependable. Continue reading How Heat Shrink Cable Repair Products Lower the Maintenance Cost →

Mastic tapes are finding increasing social acceptance for offering excellent adhesion to seal the metals, rubbers, jackets in electrical installations, and synthetic cables. These provide UV resistance that improves the life of outdoor electrical installations. The use of Mastic tapes is not limited to electrical installations; Mastic tape is being used intensively as an alternative to traditional products used for vibration dampening, preventing air passage, moisture resistance, etc. Continue reading How the Mastic Tape Safeguards Electrical Installation →

The hybrid heat shrink technology deploys high permittivity and high consistency to silicone rubber making it an ideal material for insulating electrical installations and accessories. The range of heat-shrink products comprises of cable joints, cable terminations, screened separable connectors, molded shapes, cable end caps, low voltage breakout, straight/ right angle boots etc. Over the years, after the introduction of heat-shrink technology and its products, heat shrink sleeves and heat shrink end caps have become the integral supporting accessories for any electrical installation plan.

The safety plays critical role in the success of electrical installations. The polyolefin heat-shrink glands make the cable entries in to the enclosures, connection boxes, and bulkheads safe leaving no gap around to eliminate any possibility of entry of water/moisture, environmental dust, chemical fumes, pests etc. The flame proof heat shrinkable glands make the electrical installation boxes and enclosures additionally safe against the fire hazards. The heat shrink glands come in a three parts assembly – O-ring, heat shrink molded body, and a plastic nut.

Mastic tapes are finding increasing applications in electrical installations to make the connections, cable joints and accessories corrosion, moisture and shockproof. Mastic tape material is formulated to be used as dielectric insulator. The use of mastic tape facilitates to insulate the congested or odd shaped surfaces where conventional tape can’t reach. Mastic tape creates a strong long-lasting barricade around terminations and splices to make these resistant to environmental contaminants and unfavorable working conditions. Mastic tapes are getting increasing acceptance for outdoor applications because of ‘self-healing’ property. Continue reading Mastic tape – Low Cost Yet a Great Asset for Electrical Installations →

The increasing use of heat shrink tubes and moulded shapes to make the electrical and mechanical installation safe and long-lasting is making heat shrink technology more adaptable. The convenience to use the heat shrink products also makes the technology popular among the engineers, consultants, contractors, and building owners. Today, no electrical or mechanical installation can be said completed without the use of heat shrink products in the line of safety and quality guidelines. Continue reading Heat Shrink Tubes & Moulded Shapes- The Affordable Electrical & Corrosion Protection →

The safe & long-lasting electrical installations is the prime concern of existing and yet to come manufacturing/processing units. The heat shrink technology is finding new applications in manufacturing installations and processing plants engineering. The engineers and industrial consultants are adapting heat shrink technology to make the electrical installations and the products safe and environment protected. With increasing demand of heat shrink products, the top brands of heat shrink product like Gala Thermo are expanding the product range to provide the readymade solutions to make the electrical installations safe and long-lasting. Ready to use heat shrink moulded shapes, heat shrink end caps, de gassing end caps and cable splicing kits etc are also available to make the terminations safe and long-lasting.

Heat-shrink technology is getting global acceptance to insulate the wires, cables, pipes, and other structural components for the long-term protection from abrasion, corrosion, electrical/electronic charge, mechanical impacts, environmental impacts, on-the-site harsh conditions and utility stresses etc. The specially-formulated thermoplastic polymer material, preferably Polyolefin, is used to manufacture heat shrink sleeves and heat shrink moulded shapes of desired shape, thickness, and shrinkage properties. Continue reading Gala Thermo Expands Its Range Of Heat Shrink Insulation Products →

Corrosion is a vital concern for the engineering workforce while taking on any project in industrial and commercial settings. If neglected, corrosion in metal pipes and bends tends to cause accidents, disasters, and financial loss. The exposure to the surrounding environment works as a catalyst to degrade the metallic pipes, joints, and bends used in installations and manufacturing. The numbers of techniques are used for corrosion protection in pipes and joints but heat shrink Polyolefin tubing is emerging as the most favorite choice of engineers engaged in installation and manufacturing activities in electrical, coastal, marine, industrial, oil and gas product like sectors. Continue reading Polyolefin Corrosion Protection Tubes to Make the Installations Long-Lasting →

Heat-shrink tube, a shrinkable plastic tube, is being used widely to insulate the electrical wires, joints, terminals, and connections as well as to protect these from the mechanical and environmental impacts including abrasion and corrosion. Polyolefin heat shrink tubes also facilitate the engineers to bundle the wires together, to protect the wires, to seal the cable entry also. The use of heat shrink sleeves is no more limited just to the electrical insulation ; these are being used in mechanical installations also to protect the pipes, bends, and joints from the environmental hazardous developments and impacts.
