Scotchcast flexible power cable jointing and repair kits are a flexible cold pour resin system for the permanent
jointing and repair of single or multi-core flexible power cables.
The flexible Scotchcast resin bonds securely to the cable sheath, providing a permanent joint or repair with tight
seal. A seal that won’t tear or work loose after installation.
They can be used to joint or repair frequently coiled power cables, and are tough enough to use in weather
exposed, direct burial or submerged locations.
Simple installation – no workshop needed.
Non-vulcanising – no costly equipment needed.
Drastic reduction in repair time – compared to vulcanising.
No heat required – safer system, no permit for hot work required.
High performance – repaired/jointed section can be reeled without sagging.
Permanent – both electrically and mechanically.
No end lifting – bonds to all modern cable sheath materials such as neoprene, polychoroprene and
nitrile/PVC even PVC, EPR and hypalon.
Abrasion resistant – equivalent to vulcanising.
Weather resistant – over a wide temperature range.
Flame retardant – resin system.
Three sizes of kit enables repairs to be made on cable ranging from 40mm O/D to 150mm O/D.
Resin supplied separately from the kit, only 3M 2130 Flexible Resin is suitable for use with these kits.
