Heat Shrinkable Moulded Shapes 
Anode Cap
Anode cap is Heat Shrinkable Cap, used to seal and protect the critical connection between the lead wire and anode.
It provides stress relief, moisture proofing and electrical insulation at the lead wire exit point. It is the ideal solution to the problem of premature system failure due to corrosion causing lead wire to come out of the anode.
It is made from a highly Cross-linked Polyolefin material. Rubber based mastic coating inside the cap adheres to Anode material and wire insulation which provides water tight sealing according to IP 68 (Ingress Protection).
