Insultube ‐ Double Layer is manufactured by Heat Shrinkable Insulating material and Heat Shrinkable Semi-Conductive material with special technology for good insulation in its inner layer and good semi-conduction in its outer layer; providing reliable shield protection.
This tubes are made from High Quality Cross-linked Polyolefin material with Co-extrusion Technology.
This tube is used in Power Cable Straight Through Joints for insulating and outer-shielding layer up to 36kV. It can also be used to other places wherever insulation and shielding is required.
All dimensions are in mm
