Heat Shrinkable Anode Caps

(Heat Shrink Caps for Sacrifice Anode protection)
 
 
Product Data Sheet
 
Characteristics
 
This data sheet covers the requirements for heat  shrinkable anode caps whose dimension will shrink to a predetermined  size  upon  the application  of heat above 125 deg. C.  Color of the anode caps  is  black. The anode caps are pre-coated on the inside with  butyl rubber based adhesive.    
 
Typical Applications
 

Anode caps are used for protecting the anode ends where the lead wire is connected to the anode. Protection of the connection between anode and lead wire is important to prevent premature failure of the system due to corrosion causing lead wire to come out of the anode. The anode cap provides electrical insulation and stress relief to the connection. The special rubber based adhesive on the inside of the anode cap, provides a water-tight seal and protects the anode end from moisture. The  application  table  gives  the  anode cap dimensions for each model.

The following application table gives the anode cap dimensions.
