3M ScotchCode Wire Marker Tape Dispenser STD is a compact, carry-along dispenser with ten refillable compartments which hold eight-foot rolls of non-smear polyester tape. The tape’s high tack, acrylic adhesive resists solvents, oil and water and adheres firmly to insulation surfaces.

3M Cold Shrink Connector Insulators 8440 Series are open-ended, factory-expanded silicone rubber tubes designed with cold shrink technology and loaded on a removable plastic core. To install the connection, position it over the inline connector, pull the loose tab on the plastic core while unwinding the core in a counterclockwise direction, allowing the ends of the tube to shrink and form a secure seal. Engineered for primary insulation of solid dielectric insulated wires and cable splices rated up to 1000 volts, the insulators can be used for indoor and outdoor applications to provide a moisture-resistant seal. They are easy to install by hand, requiring no additional tools or heating sources.

3M Motor Lead Pigtail Splicing Kits 5300 Series are designed for splicing motor lead cables to incoming feeder cables, including the accommodation of pigtail (stub) connections at 1000 volts and less. The splice’s main component, the slip-on lug cover, is made from EPDM rubber. Mastic strips are used for the moisture seal. These kits are designed to be used with copper compression, one-hole lugs. After being crimped onto the cables, the lugs are bolted together in a pigtail configuration, then insulated and sealed with the 3M Motor Lead Splicing Kit. Each kit makes three splices and contains the necessary materials (except lugs) needed to make three splices. The lugs must be purchased separately.

3M Scotchlok Copper Compression Lugs 30000 Series, or other UL listed copper lugs, can be used. Kit contents include: • (3) Pigtail lug covers • (3) Mastic sealing strips • (3) Locking pins (kits 5302–5304 only) • (3) Tubes of silicone grease • (1) Instruction sheet
