Product Overview

The COMPAQ CCSB Series – Cold Shrink Breakout Boots provide a flame-free, high-performance sealing solution for the crutch area of 3-core power cables. Designed for both polymeric (XLPE/EPR) and PILC-insulated cables, these boots are factory-expanded silicone rubber components supplied on a removable inner plastic core. Once the core is removed, the boot contracts to form an airtight, watertight seal without the need for heat, tools, or adhesives.

Manufactured from high-grade silicone rubber, CCSB boots offer outstanding UV, ozone, and moisture resistance, along with excellent dielectric and thermal performance — making them suitable for both indoor switchgear applications and outdoor substations in medium voltage cable systems.
