In all our heat shrink products, we start from the principle that the products must be reliable and as good as the cable itself. The high quality of the heat-shrinkable products, and to the detailed instructions for use comply with this principle. The large and complete range of heat shrinkable products consists of connecting, transitional and end sleeves and various products for various cable constructions. The products include all necessary materials for a perfect protection of the cable. The shrinkable products are manufactured from high quality raw materials with very high cross-linking and can be provided with an internal coating if required. Depending on the application use these internal coating consist of an adhesive layer, or a mastic layer. The production is carefully monitored according to ISO 9001
