Terminals - Housings, Boots

The 1-172210-1 device is a heat-shrinkable housing and boot system that is designed to help protect cables and wires from abrasion, water, dirt, impact, and other environmental hazards. The system includes a heat-shrinkable tube that is designed to fit around an electrical cable, and a sealed heat-shrinkable boot that is designed to protect the outer case of the cable or wire. The system is designed for a variety of applications, including power distribution, communications, and control systems.

Application Field

The 1-172210-1 heat-shrinkable housing and boot system is designed for use in a variety of industrial and consumer applications. It can be used to protect and insulate cables and wires in any environment that is subject to abrasion, water, dirt, impact, and other environmental hazards. Examples of such applications include automotive and truck wiring harnesses, marine electrical systems, and cable and wire assemblies in data centers or any other indoor or outdoor application.

Working Principle

The 1-172210-1 system works by first wrapping the heat-shrinkable tube around the electrical cable. The tube is then heated with an electrical current, causing it to shrink tightly around the cable. This provides an additional layer of protection against abrasion, water, dirt, and impact. The heat-shrinkable boot is then applied over the thermal shrink tube and secured with an additional thermal shrink tube. The boot is sealed around the tube and cable to provide environmental and mechanical protection. The heat-shrinkable boot is designed to remain sealed even after the application of force, providing a reliable and effective barrier against environmental hazards.

Conclusion

The 1-172210-1 heat-shrinkable housing and boot system is designed for use in a variety of industrial and consumer applications. It is designed to provide an additional layer of protection from abrasion, water, dirt, impact, and other environmental hazards. The heat-shrinkable tube and boot work together to provide a reliable and effective barrier against environmental hazards, making it an ideal solution for any application where environmental or mechanical protection is needed.
