The most popular method of protecting a fusion splice is the utilization of two heat sensitive tubes supported by a stainless steel rod. This sleeve contains a custom inner tube made of polyolifin, which melts around the fiber to provide both moisture and cushion protection. The Teflon-treated inner tube allows easy fiber entry. The sleeve shrinks to a size that allows insertion into most fusion splice trays. This is a proven shrink tube design used in thousands of telco and communication applications.
