Cable jointing

Flexable Resin Cable Joint

Two-part polyurethane cable-jointing resin, with the mould selected to the cable

The Flexable Resin Cable Joint is Kia-Kaha Mining's own two-part polyurethane casting resin for electrical cable jointing and repair in mining and industrial applications, with cable-specific moulds and application consumables. The resin is supplied in a sealed foil pack for easy mixing and a fast cure; the mould and pack are selected to the cable construction, outside diameter, conductor size and joint configuration.

Buyer questions

Common questions

By the cable type, number of cores and conductor size, and by the cable outside diameter measured accurately. The moulds cover conductor ranges from 1.5 mm² up to 25–35 mm² and cable outside diameters from about 6 mm to 50 mm; larger combinations are selected by outside diameter and resin volume. Confirm the mould against the current data sheet with your enquiry.
