STAR TECK EXTREME® fittings are designed to accommodate a broad range of cables and each hub range overlaps the adjacent hub range, thereby minimizing the possibility of mismatched cables and fittings in the field. Exclusive power-grip provides a grip that’s high up on the cable – not on the first convolution – so precise cable preparation is not critical. Tapered elastomeric bushing - cone shaped to provide a secure tight fit while eliminating cupping of water in vertical installations. Low profile gland nut fits tight spaces. Has grooves for screwdriver installation, and flats for a wrench. Durable and reusable with funnel entry for easy cable insertion. High visibility, red union features twist-on action for easy connection and disconnection. Also serves as mechanical splitter to separate hub from fitting during disassembly.
With the introduction of STAR TECK EXTREME XP fitting, Thomas & Betts combined the ease of installation of the original STAR TECK XP fitting with all of the unique benefits of STAR TECK EXTREME range-taking fittings.
End-users in hazardous, explosion-proof environments could now benefit from simplified fitting selection, reduced inventory and removable armour stops.
