scope:

This sheet of IEC 62329-3 gives the requirements for heat-shrinkable elastomeric moulded shape, semi-rigid material requirements and system performance.

Experience of product performance indicates that this moulded shape material is suitable for inclusion in systems for operation in the following temperature ranges: -75 °C to + 120 °C.

The moulded shapes may be supplied with a pre-coated adhesive. Refer to the manufacturers/suppliers for options. A guide to adhesive compatibility is given in Annex A.

These moulded shapes are normally supplied in the styles and dimensions given in IEC 62329-3- 100. The colour is normally Black.

Styles and dimensions other than those specifically listed in IEC 62329-3-100 may be available as custom items. These items shall be considered to comply with this standard if they comply with the property requirements listed in Table 1 with the exception of dimensions.

Materials that conform to this specification meet established levels of performance. However, the selection of a material by a user for a specific application should be based on the actual requirements necessary for adequate performance in that application and not based on this specification alone.
