SRK12 End Seal Kit

DESCRIPTION:

SR self-regulating heating cables are designed for

a variety of pipe freeze protection as well as roof

and gutter deicing applications. The heat output

(wattage) increases and decreases based on the

temperature, so the cable adjusts automatically to

varying climate conditions. This unique feature

ensures maximum energy efficiency by increasing

the heat output only when it is needed. No

thermostat is required.

Black heat shrink tube (3/4” dia. x 5” length)

B 2

Woven braid sleeve ( ½” dia. x 4” length)
