DW-8882 is a superior, re-enterable, clear encapsulant. It forms moisture proof encapsulation for buried cable splices that is easily re-enterable. Complete removal of encapsulant from a splice is not necessary upon re-entry, since new material will completely bond to existing cured encapsulant.
This product offers superior adhesive properties when bonding to conductor insulation. Its ability to absorb cable filling compounds helps provide a strong moisture, impermeable barrier.
