3M 7010396863 Heat Shrink End Cap SKE-25/63 1.00-1.97 in

Product Description

The 3M 7010396863 is a heavy-duty heat shrink end cap designed to seal and protect cable terminations from moisture, contaminants, and mechanical damage. Sold as model SKE-25/63, this end cap fits cable diameters ranging from 1.00 inches to 1.97 inches and is constructed for demanding electrical and utility applications. The black heat shrink material conforms tightly to the cable end when properly heated, forming a durable environmental seal. Electricians and cable technicians use this cap to terminate and protect the open ends of power cables, control cables, and multiconductor assemblies during storage, installation, or long-term service.

This end cap is suited for residential, commercial, and industrial electrical work where cable ends require reliable environmental protection. It is commonly applied in conduit runs, underground cable installations, panel work, and utility distribution systems. The SKE-25/63 designation corresponds to the shrink ratio and size range, making it appropriate for a broad range of cable constructions within the 1.00 inch to 1.97 inch outside diameter range. It is packaged individually and also available in case quantities of 10.

Key Features

• Fits cable diameters from 1.00 inches to 1.97 inches
• Heavy-duty heat shrink construction forms a tight environmental seal when heated
• Black color for standard identification and UV resistance in typical end cap applications
• Single-piece end cap design simplifies termination on open cable ends
• Suitable for moisture, dust, and contaminant exclusion at cable terminations

Compatibility

Designed as an end cap for cables with outside diameters between 1.00 inches and 1.97 inches. Consult 3M SKE series selection guides to confirm fitment for specific cable constructions and jacket materials.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed electricians or qualified cable technicians following applicable NEC guidelines. De-energize and lock out all circuits before working on cable terminations. Slide the end cap over the prepared cable end and apply heat evenly using a calibrated heat gun, working from the closed end outward to avoid trapping air. Do not use an open flame to shrink the cap, as uneven heat can compromise the seal integrity.
