Termination Sleeves

Solder and Crimp Sleeves

Solder sleeves allow for the reliable solder termination of a wide variety of cables and wires as well as pin-to-pin and wire-to-pin connection applications. Sumitomo Solder Termination Sleeves solder, seal, insulate, and strain relieve critical connections quickly and repeatable in one simple step. The outer heat-shrinkable jacket is a precision engineered high performance fluoroplastic sleeve containing an exactly measured amount of prefluxed solder that assures a perfect connection every time. Solder sleeves are manufactured to the SAE-AS83519 standard which ensures connections are completely insulated, encapsulated and strain relieved every single time. Solder sleeves with pre installed ground leads improve ease of handling by eliminating incorrect lead positioning, thereby further assuring a reliable, inspectable connection.

Heat Shrink

Sumitube

Shrink tubing insulation products are available in single and dual-wall varieties in all standard colors. QPL certified Sumitube is a heat-shrinkable tube (that shrinks in the radial direction when heated) that takes advantage of the shape-memory effect of plastics enhanced by electron beam irradiation. Made mainly from raw materials such as polyolefin, fluorinated polymer, or thermoplastic elastomer, Sumitube is widely used in various industrial fields for thermal protection, insulation protection of electrical wires and harnesses and protecting joined mechanical assemblies. Sumitube shrink tubing meets key major commercial and military specifications including AMS-DTL 23053, UL and CSA, and is RoHS compliant.

Printers and Components

SumiMark and SumiTag

The SumiMark IV PLUS is the latest high performance 300dpi thermal transfer marking system that produces crisp, high quality text, barcodes and graphic images for any standard label or custom shrink tube marking requirement of SAE-AS5942 and MIL-STD-202G. New touchscreen format controls world-class WYSIWYG Sumilabel™ identification software. The Sumitag system are high-performance thermal printers capable of reliably marking cable labels and heat-shrink tubing. Sumitag printers are delivered with the proprietary Sumilabel software interface to produce 300 dpi marker sleeves that meet SAE-AS5942 quality specifications. Sumitag printers feature auto calibration positioning for fast media changes and are fully compatible with all Sumitag products. CDM has available the full line of SumiMark printable shrink tubing and Sumtag marker sleeves along with replacement parts and spares.

Identification Products

SumiMark and SumiTag tubing

Sumimark tubing is available in a wide range of types including general purpose polyolefins, dual wall tubings, high temperature PVDF and flouroelastomers and is recommended for use in applications such as wire marking, identification and electrical insulation of light wire harness assemblies. When used in conjunction with the SumiMark IV Marking System,  Sumimark tubing provides marked sleeves that meet or exceed the print permanence requirements of SAE-AS81531. Sumimark tubing is available in black, white and colors and meet military and commercial specifications (AMSDTL23053, UL, VW1, CSA).
