The ShieldFast® range of screened devices
offers full shielding and grounding continuity to cables where they are
most vulnerable at terminations, splices and transitions. The unique
one-piece parts are heat shrinkable to give a snug fit and provide
mechanical protection, strain relief and sealing to the underlying
structure. |
