FSTW

Fast Splicing Tape Wrap

Tyco Electronics FSTW is a thermoplastic

rubber tape combined with a butyl

rubber sealant specially formulated for

underground applications. FSTW is ideal

for repairing cable jackets, sealing low-

voltage splices, and rejacketing MV cable

splices.

Saves Time and Money

FSTW provides a complete rejacketing

solution in one pass as opposed to themultilayer construction required when

using traditional tape products. Its quick

to install. There is no need for separate

sealing mastic and tape as it combines

sealant and rubber tape in one convenient

product.

Tough Protection

FSTW rubber tape is made 50 mils thick,

which offers strong puncture resistance

from underground material and debris.

FSTW is rated for use on 90C rated cables,

in underground use in acid or caustic

soils, and saltwater environments. It is UV

resistant and rated for aerial exposure.

Splices made with FSTW qualify to ANSI

C119.1.

Environmental Seal

FSTW provides a complete watertight seal

for use in submersible applications.

Easy Removal

Mastic is in contact with cable surface only

at ends which allows for easy removal.
