Kink protection for coaxial cable

One of the most annoying problems with coaxial cable applications is that they tend to break at their most vulnerable point, the connection between the cable and the connector. Be it due to frequent use or improper handling. This can be prevented with a bend protector for coaxial cables. We stock both bend protection sleeves and shrink sleeves, the advantages of which are explained below.

These serve to mechanically protect cables from excessive bending directly at the connector. In addition, different coloured cable sleeves can be used to identify different signals. In our assortment you will find bend protection sleeves in 10 different colours to customise your application in the best possible way.

We stock cable sleeves for plugs and sockets from the following manufacturers: Lemo, Huber + Suhner, Telegärtner

Heat shrink tubes

A heat shrinkable sleeve is a plastic tube that contracts strongly when exposed to heat. In this process, the cable inserted into the tube before heating is electrically insulated from its surroundings and protected from mechanical damage.

A heat-shrinkable sleeve is a good alternative to an anti-kink sleeve. It is used wherever a grommet would be too large or expensive due to the installation situation or for cost reasons. The heat shrinkable tubing we use is flame retardant, made of flexible polyolefin and designed for max. +125°C. If you need heat shrink tubing with a higher temperature resistance for your application, we also have more resistant variants made of Teflon.

For outdoor applications, we recommend heat shrink tubing with an internal adhesive. These are usually thicker-walled and seal the cable against moisture penetration.
