Cable Splice Resins (Protolin)

In electrical installations, resin is a two-component casting material poured into the splice mold in cable splices, which hardens to insulate the splice and seal it against moisture; it is also known on the market by the name Protolin. It is used in low-voltage cable splices that are buried in the ground, in contact with water or left outdoors, and in submersible pump cable splices. In this category, Tamer Elektrik-branded Protolin resins are sold by the piece in 500 g and 1 kg packages. Choose the package quantity by the volume of the splice mold you will fill and the number of splices you will make; take the preparation method, working time and curing time from the manufacturer's usage information. Resin is not a cable splice kit on its own: a splice mold and conductor connection elements are needed separately, and ready resin cable splice joints are in the Resin Cable Splice Kits category.
