HEATSHRINK KIT INCLUDES: Heatshrinkable Crimp Butt Cable Connectors (x2) & Heatshrink Adhesive Lined Sleeving (approx. 10cm)
Ideal for use with 12v lighting systems. 2 options are available based on inner and outer cable diameters.
Connectors may vary slightly
This simple and easy Heatshrink Cable Connector Kit is perfect for joining two cables together without the need for a full junction box. The crimp butt connectors simply slot over each of the inner cables of a standard two core cable, where they are crimped into place. After loosely inserting the second 2 core cable through the heatshrink sleeve, the inner cables should then be attached to the crimp butt connectors in the same way as before to create a neat joint / extension. Using a heat gun, shrink the connectors to secure the edges and to fuse to the inner cables creating a watertight seal. The heatshrink sleeve can then be moved to cover the entire joint which, when heated, then shrinks around the outer cable ensuring the entire joint is fully secure and waterproof, protected against water and moisture.
