Raychem FCSM Heat Shrink Tubing: Heavy-Wall and Flame-Retardant for Industrial and Transportation Applications
The Raychem FCSM heat shrink tubing from TE Connectivity is a heavy-wall, flame-retardant shrink tubing ideal for insulation and mechanical protection of low voltage cables and cable accessories. This tubing is widely used in sectors such as mining, power plants, construction, transportation, and railways, where both flexibility and flame retardancy are essential.
The FCSM heat shrink is available with or without an adhesive layer and provides high mechanical strength and exceptional cut-through resistance. Due to its specialized material composition, the FCSM tubing surpasses the properties of standard low voltage cable jackets. The material combines flame-retardant properties with mechanical flexibility and abrasion resistance, making the FCSM heat shrink suitable for a wide range of demanding applications.
Key Features and Applications of the Raychem FCSM Heat Shrink Tubing
The Raychem FCSM tubing can be applied to various substrates, including standard poly or elastomer-insulated cables, lead-sheathed cables, and cables with aluminum or steel armor. The tubing is UV-stabilized, ensuring long-lasting performance in outdoor applications. Under normal storage conditions, the FCSM tubing has an unlimited shelf life and is MSHA-approved (No. 07-KA090013-MSHA), emphasizing its reliability for critical applications.
