Resins, Compounds, Pastes & Accessories
Jointing Tech supplies resins, compounds, pastes and accessories for cable jointing, insulation, sealing, corrosion protection and associated electrical-installation work. The range includes two-part resins, encapsulation products, cold-pour and hot-pour compounds, weatherproof compounds, putties, Denso products, jointing fluxes, solders and conductor pastes.
The correct compound or resin is an important part of many cable-jointing and cable-protection systems. Products must be selected for the voltage application, cable construction, joint type, environmental conditions and manufacturer-approved installation method.
Cable-joint resins and compounds can provide insulation, encapsulation, moisture protection, filling or sealing within compatible joint and cable systems. The correct product depends on the application: some are designed for cable-joint encapsulation, while others are intended for weatherproofing, oil resistance, metal-surface preparation, conductor connection or general sealing.
Before selecting a product, confirm the cable type, voltage level, joint or enclosure design, required filling volume, installation environment, temperature range and any chemical or oil exposure. For cable joint kits, use only the resin or compound approved for that kit. A different resin, mixing ratio or curing process can compromise the performance of the joint.
Two-part resins must be mixed and applied in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions. Take account of working time, cure time, temperature, PPE, ventilation and waste handling. Hot-pour compounds require additional controls for heating and handling, while cold-pour products are selected where the system and application permit.
Pastes, fluxes and solders should be selected for the conductor material and joining method. For example, conductor preparation and flux requirements can differ between copper and aluminium. Always follow approved installation procedures and use compatible products.
FAQs
What is cable joint resin used for?
It can be used in compatible joint systems to encapsulate and protect electrical connections, providing insulation and environmental sealing.
What is the difference between a resin and a compound?
The terms cover different product formulations and uses. Selection should be based on the specific joint, cable, voltage and environmental requirement.
Can I use any resin in a cable joint kit?
No. Use the resin or compound approved by the kit manufacturer for that specific joint system.
Are hot-pour and cold-pour compounds interchangeable?
No. They have different installation methods and product characteristics. Use the type specified for the approved application.
