3M 7000031696 Reenterable Electrical Insulating Resin 12.3 Oz

Product Description

The 3M 7000031696 is a soft, two-part polybutadiene resin encapsulant formulated for reenterable splice protection in electrical applications. This product mixes and cures into a flexible, removable mass that encapsulates electrical splices, connectors, and terminations — allowing re-entry without destructive cutting or grinding. Electricians and utility technicians use it where future access to the splice is required, such as direct-burial cable joints, underground junction boxes, and conduit splice points. The 12.3-ounce package is sized for single-use or small-batch field applications.

This resin is suited for residential, commercial, and light industrial electrical work where a soft, reenterable encapsulant is required. Typical installations include low-voltage and line-voltage splice kits in underground or moisture-exposed environments. It handles well at ambient temperatures and is appropriate for use wherever a permanent rigid encapsulant would prevent future inspection or rework of the splice.

Key Features

• Soft, reenterable cure — splice can be re-accessed without cutting or damaging conductors
• Two-part polybutadiene formula provides reliable insulation and moisture exclusion
• Suitable for a wide range of electrical applications requiring a flexible encapsulant
• 12.3-ounce package weight supports single-splice or small-batch field use
• Designed for good workability and handling characteristics during mixing and application

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style reenterable encapsulant for use in electrical splice protection applications where a soft, removable resin is specified.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a licensed electrician following applicable NEC requirements for the splice environment. De-energize and lock out the circuit before preparing the splice and applying resin. Mix the two-part components thoroughly per the manufacturer's mixing ratio before pouring. Allow full cure time before restoring power or backfilling the installation.
