Due to the crosslinking, these polymers are non-melting, cold flow-resistant and heat-shrinkable. Due to the outstanding insulation properties, the excellent mechanical and thermal behaviour and the simple, straightforward application, RAUCROSS heat-shrink sleeves are suitable for a wide range of applications. All of the products listed are exclusively designed for the low voltage range up to 1 kV. REHAU offers a variety of standard product ranges made from crosslinked polyolefins (RAU-VPE) in a wide range of dimensions, qualities, wall thicknesses and colours. Rolls for industrial processing and also practi- cal trade packs and assortments are available from stock. RAUCROSS sleeves shrink to at least 50 % of their supply diameter. Some types offer much larger shrink rates, are therefore easy to use and are even suitable for components with large diameter variations. To seal against moisture and environmental influences (preferably not to improve adhesion) RAUCROSS heat-shrink sleeves with internal adhesive coating as well as anti-corrosion compound are available in various standard colours including transparent. As a result of this, covered cable connections and markings remain visible for example. REHAU offers application-specific solutions for components with complicated shapes, e.g. in the case of very pronounced variations in cross-section or narrow bends. If you cannot find a suitable heat-shrink sleeve in our product range right away, our technical applications department is there at any time to provide advice. You will find product range overviews including material data sheets on the REHAU home page www.rehau.de. 8 REHAU HEAT-SHRINK PRODUCTS PROCESSING TIPS FOR RAUCROSS HEAT-SHRINK SLEEVES Special knowledge and tools are not required for processing. The temperature required for the shrinking process can be achieved with hot air blowers, a drying oven, a shrink tunnel, an infrared radiator, an open gas flame, etc. Shrink range RAUCROSS heat-shrink sleeves generally shrink when heated to a temperature above approx. 120 °C to at least 50 % of the supply diameter. However, logically
