Technical Information
Injection Moulded Shells
Rigid and very strong, their snap-lock design forms an excellent seal
and prevents egress of resin.
Mechanical Connectors
Filoform mechanical connectors have been especially designed to com-
plete a cable joint kit suitable as standard to fit LV cables up to 120mm.
The connectors are machined from solid brass and are suitable for
either copper or aluminum conductors.
The connector range is complemented with larger aluminum sheer off
bolt heads, please see the LV connector section.
Earth Braid
Filoform’s earth braid offers significant advantages over “single wire
type” earth continuity systems, which can fail if poorly positioned within
wire armour cores that have “spread”. The flat, soft braid ensures good
electrical contact and is insulated for extra protection.
Constant Force Springs
Cable Joints move and expand due to earth shift and heat from electri-
cal current. Constant force springs react to this movement and maintain
a sound electrical connection between the steel wire armoring and the
earth continuity braid.
This method replaces the original work drive clip.
Core Separators
Provide safe separation of cores and connectors.
Two-part resin
Filoform’s long proven resin formula is of such high quality that’s it is
equally suitable for both LV and MV applications and provides excellent
adhesion to PVC, XLPE, Polythene, and paper cables. It is supplied in a
two-part easy mix packaging, ensuring both convenience and safety.
Packaging
Filoform Joints are supplied in robust and rigid boxes to withstand
stacking both in warehouses and in pallets. These boxes are also popu-
lar with jointers since they can be used as “mini workbenches” to cut the
ends of the shells.
Breadth of range
There are few, if any combinations of power cables that Filoform cannot
join. We offer over 600 variations of resin cable joints including special
versions for mines & quarries; oil & petrochem, Telecom, Control; & ca-
thodic protection. These utilize both cast resin joints; Taped resin joints
and heatshrink technology. All supplied for both LV & MV applications.
