3M™Medium-Wall Heat Shrink Tubing IMCSN Data Sheet Product Description Agency Approvals & Self Certifications November 2017 3M™ Medium-Wall Heat Shrink Tubing IMCSN is designed to provide reliable performance for electrical splices, connections, and terminations, as well as mechanical and environmental protection. 3M IMCSN tubing is fabricated from cross-linked polyolefin. The tubing is highly split resistant, and fast-shrinking to provide rapid installation. The tubing comes standard with a factory-applied adhesive/sealant. For RoHS information, please visit www.3M.com/ROHS Product Features • • • • • • • • • Applications • • • • • Product Selection Selecting 3M IMCSN tubing is easy and straightforward. The largest tubing that provides a tight fit when fully recovered will produce the maximum wall thickness. Final wall thickness is proportional to the degree of tubing recovery. Fast and easy installation. Resists puncture and abrasion damage. Complete environmental protection. Versatile, a minimum number of sizes cover the entire range of applications. Shrink ratio 3:1. Resist acids and alkalies. Bonds to a wide variety of substrates. Reliable and proven. UV resistant. Primary electrical insulation for solid dielectric wire and cable rated to 1000 volts. For indoor, outdoor or overhead use. Direct buried or submersible. Insulating secondary splices. Physical protection and moisture sealing of high-voltage air insulated connectors and lugs, such as lug connections to bus bars. • Relocation of service. • Dig-in repairs. 1 of 5  3M™ Medium-Wall Heat Shrink Tubing IMCSN Characteristics and Test Data Property Requirements* Test Results Continuous Operating Temperature Range -55°C to 110°C -55°C to 110°C Black Black + 1%, - 10% Pass No Cracking Pass No Cracking, Flowing or Dripping Pass 2% Secant Modulus 25,000 psi max. 14,000 psi Color Stability (24 hours @ 175°C) Remain Stable Pass Tensile Strength 1,200 psi min. 2,400 psi 200% min. 475% Dielectric Strength (V/mil) 200 min. 500 Volume Resistivity (ohm-cm) 1 01 3 min. 1 01 4 Color Longitudinal Change Low Temperature Flexibility (4 hours @ -55°C) Heat Shock (4 hours @ 255°C) Ultimate Elongation *Based on MIL-I-23053/15A Class 2 Fluid Resistance / MIL-I-23053 • Minimum tensile strength, 750 psi. • Minimum dielectric strength, 200 V/mil. • Twenty-four hours at 25°C.
