This sheet of IEC 62329‑3 gives the requirements for heat-shrinkable elastomeric moulded shape, semi-rigid material requirements and system performance.

Experience of product performance indicates that this moulded shape material is suitable for inclusion in systems for operation in the following temperature ranges: –75 °C to + 120 °C.

The moulded shapes may be supplied with a pre-coated adhesive. Refer to the manufacturers/suppliers for options. A guide to adhesive compatibility is given in Annex A.

These moulded shapes are normally supplied in the styles and dimensions given in IEC 62329‑3‑100.The colour is normally Black.

Styles and dimensions other than those specifically listed in IEC 62329‑3‑100 may be available as custom items. These items shall be considered to comply with this standard if they comply with the property requirements listed in Table 1 with the exception of dimensions.

Materials that conform to this specification meet established levels of performance. However, the selection of a material by a user for a specific application should be based on the actual requirements necessary for adequate performance in that application and not based on this specification alone.
