Morris 68304 Cold Shrink Tube, 2/0 AWG - 400 MCM, 9"

Product Overview

The Morris 68304 is a silicone-rubber cold shrink tube sized for 2/0 AWG to 400 MCM conductors (cable diameters 0.57"–1.35"). It installs without heat by removing an internal rip-cord core to collapse the sleeve around the cable.

Designed for cable-jacket repair and splicing, the sleeve is submersible-rated, UV resistant, conforms to ANSI C119.1 (1986), and is rated 1000V for primary insulation.

Key Features

• Cold-applied silicone rubber tube — installs by removing rip-cord core (no heat required)
• Conductor range: 2/0 AWG to 400 MCM; cable diameter range: 0.57"–1.35"
• Length: 9"
• 1000V rating for primary insulation
• Submersible-rated for cable-jacket repair and splicing
• Conforms to ANSI C119.1 (1986) and UV resistant

What this product does

The Morris 68304 is a cold shrink tube intended to restore or protect the jacket and insulation area of medium to large conductors. When the internal rip-cord core is removed, the silicone sleeve contracts and forms a tight, durable covering around the cable junction or repaired jacket.

• Provides mechanical protection and insulating cover over splices and jacket repairs
• Cold-applied design eliminates the need for a heat source during installation

Suitable applications

This sleeve is specified for cable-jacket repair and splicing on conductors from 2/0 AWG up to 400 MCM. It is intended for use in locations where submersibility is required and where UV resistance is beneficial.

• Submersible installations and direct-buried locations
• Outdoor applications where UV resistance is needed
• Splice encapsulation and jacket restoration on appropriate conductor sizes

Installation method

Installation requires positioning the tube over the cable or splice and then removing the rip-cord core to allow the silicone to collapse tightly onto the cable. No heat, torches, or hot-air tools are required.

• Slide tube over work area before completing splice or repair
• Unwind/pull rip-cord to collapse sleeve into place
• Check that sleeve fully covers the repair and conforms to cable profile

Electrical rating and standards

The Morris 68304 is rated for 1000V as primary insulation and is stated to conform to ANSI C119.1 (1986). Its submersible rating is indicated for cable-jacket repair and splicing.

• Voltage rating: 1000V (primary insulation)
• Standard: Conforms to ANSI C119.1 (1986)

Size, material, and compatibility

The sleeve is constructed of silicone rubber, measures 9 inches in length, and fits conductors with an outer cable diameter between 0.57 inches and 1.35 inches. The specified conductor range is 2/0 AWG through 400 MCM.

• Material: Silicone rubber (UV resistant)
• Length: 9"
• Cable diameter range: 0.57"–1.35"
• Conductor compatibility: 2/0 AWG–400 MCM

Before You Order

Confirm the model number and conductor/cable diameter range required before ordering to ensure proper fit.

• Verify conductor size (2/0 AWG–400 MCM) and cable diameter (0.57"–1.35") for compatibility
• This product installs by cold shrink (rip-cord removal); no heat source is required
