Subject: Re: Connector sealant
Donnie - According to our technical gurus - they recommend an
alternative method. They would first wrap the connection with our
130C tape. This tape is a linerless rubber splicing tape. It is a 30
mil thick tape with excellent sealing and insulating properties. They
then suggest overwrapping with our 33+ which would add the mechanical
and abrasion qualities.
Thanks - Holly
For what it's worth guys.
