FCSM Tubing

FCSM Tubing

Flame-retardant heavy-wall tubing rated for use at 2000 volts. FCSM tubing's tough, crosslinked polyolefin construction provides mechanical strength and cut-through resistance equal to, or surpassing, the properties of low-voltage cable jackets.

Use sealant-coated FCSM tubing (-S) as a sealed in-line splice or terminal lug seal. It provides a water tight seal for direct-buried applications and wet environments.

Use uncoated FCSM tubing (-/U) for cable rejacketing only.

Sealant-coated or uncoated FCSM tubing may be used for jacket repair on cable to 35 kilo volts. Qualified to ANSI C119.1-1986; rated to IEEE 383 (Vertical Tray Flame Test) and also ICEA S-19-81.

FCSM Tubing is for use on standard poly- or elastomeric- insulated/jacketed cables or lead-jacketed cables, which may include aluminum or steel armoring.

• Connectors up to 6 inches: Recommended cut length = connector length + 4 inches
• Connectors over 6 inches: Recommended cut length = connector length + 5 inches
