43. Shrink the wraparound sleeve
Preheat evenly along both sides of the rail/channel area until this
area begins to shrink. To achieve uniform heating, move the flame
back and forth from one side of the channel to the other as shown
in illustration “A” while moving flame along the entire length of the
channel as shown in illustration “B” until the sleeve starts to shrink.
This technique will assure a properly preheated rail and channel area.
Begin shrinking at the center of the sleeve and work toward each
end.
Apply heat until the sleeve is fully shrunk and the heat-sensitive
green paint is completely converted to black. Continue heating the
rail/channel area for another 5 seconds per foot. A white line should
be visible in the channel gaps indicating sufficient heating.
Note:
Green heat-sensitive paint will turn black as sleeve shrinks in
place.
This completes the splice.
Note:
Allow to cool before moving or placing in service.
