3M 7010396826 Heat Shrink Cable Sleeve 48 Inches Black

Product Description

The 3M 7010396826 is a heavy-wall, flame-retardant heat shrinkable cable sleeve designed to protect electrical splices, connections, and terminations from mechanical damage and environmental exposure. Constructed from cross-linked polyolefin with a factory-applied internal adhesive and sealant, the sleeve bonds securely to the substrate during shrinkage to create a moisture-resistant seal. Each sleeve measures 48 inches in length. The fast-shrink design reduces installation time on the job. This sleeve meets MIL-DTL-23053/15, Class 1 requirements, making it appropriate for demanding electrical applications where compliance with military-grade shrink tubing standards is required. Sold individually; case quantity is 5 sleeves.

This cable sleeve is used in residential and commercial electrical installations, as well as industrial and maintenance applications where splices, terminations, and connections require durable environmental and mechanical protection. It is sized by expanded inside diameter, so installers should order the size equivalent to the required expanded inside diameter at the point of installation. The sleeve is not printed and ships in black. It is well suited for conduit work, panel terminations, and field splicing performed by licensed electricians and industrial maintenance electricians.

Key Features

• Cross-linked polyolefin construction provides high split resistance and durability
• Flame-retardant material meets MIL-DTL-23053/15, Class 1 specification
• Factory-applied internal adhesive and sealant creates a moisture-resistant bond on shrinkage
• Fast-shrink design speeds field installation
• Heavy-wall construction offers enhanced mechanical protection over standard-wall sleeves
• 48-inch length suits splices and terminations requiring longer coverage

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style heavy-wall heat shrink solution for electrical splices, connections, and terminations requiring flame-retardant and environmental protection per MIL-DTL-23053/15, Class 1. Order in the size equivalent to the expanded inside diameter required for the application.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed electricians following applicable NEC requirements. De-energize all conductors and verify absence of voltage before applying the sleeve over the splice or termination. Apply uniform heat using an appropriate heat gun, working from the center outward to prevent air entrapment under the sleeve. Do not use an open flame as a heat source, as uneven heat can damage the sleeve or inhibit proper adhesive flow.
