Ortronics 20500367 Heat Shrink Ribbon Cable Splice 40mm

Product Description

The ORTRONICS 20500367 is a heat shrink splice connector engineered for ribbon cable terminations at a 40mm size. It provides a secure, insulated junction between ribbon cable segments using applied heat to create a tight, protective bond over the splice point. The connector is sold as a single unit and is intended for use by electricians, low-voltage installers, and structured cabling technicians working with ribbon-style conductor assemblies. Its heat shrink construction ensures consistent mechanical protection and electrical insulation once properly activated.

This splice is suited for applications where ribbon cables require in-line joining in telecommunications, data infrastructure, or industrial wiring environments. It is appropriate for both new installations and repair or extension work on existing ribbon cable runs. Technicians working in structured wiring, control panels, or communication closets will find this part useful where a clean, insulated splice is required without the bulk of a mechanical connector housing.

Key Features

• Heat shrink construction forms a tight, insulated bond over ribbon cable splices when heat is applied
• 40mm size accommodates standard ribbon cable splice lengths
• Single-unit packaging allows precise quantity control for service and repair work
• Low-profile design suitable for space-constrained conduit or enclosure installations

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and new-installation component for ribbon cable splice applications in structured cabling and low-voltage wiring systems.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified electrician or low-voltage technician following applicable NEC guidelines. De-energize all circuits before making any splice connection. Apply heat evenly using an appropriate heat gun to activate the shrink material without scorching the cable jacket or adjacent conductors. Verify the splice is fully seated and the heat shrink has contracted uniformly before restoring power or signal to the circuit.
