Nonpressurized Fibre-reinforcing Splice Closure

Mufatel sleeve is made of super-sleeve material, which combines the strength and durability of composite design with proven heat-shrink technology. Sleeve material is composed of several layers of specially blended polymers and adhesives, a fiber-reinforcing layer, and an aluminum moisture vapor barrier layer. The fiber-reinforcing layer provides excellent mechanical strength, and eliminates the propagation of localized damage that can result from overheating or other errors in installation. Once the sleeve has been installed, the composite design of the super-sleeve material provides superior mechanical protection from forced such as impact, abrasion, UV light, and atmospheric contamination.

1. Heat-shrinkable composite joint closure system for environmental and mechanical protection of joints in the unpressurised telephone network: aerial, buried or ducted, non-filled or jelly filled, with polyethylene, lead, steel or aluminum sheaths.
2.
Composite structure of the reinforced sleeve offers an excellent resistance to mechanical abuse during and after the installation.
3. Integrated moisture barrier completely reconstitutes the cable sheath over the total splice area.
4. Hot-melt adhesive forms a watertight seal to the cable sheath.
5. A metal canister instead of liner shapes and mechanically protects the splice bundle much better..
6. Up to 2 cables at each end can be accommodated using three finger clips with hot-melt adhesive.
7. Installation indicators: heat sensitive paint and adhesive flow, white line.
8. Extended size range can accommodate splices up to 800 pair with any connector type.
9. Excellent performance under high humidity and in tropical condition
