Product Description

The WetLink Cable Splice Kit is a revolutionary alternative to the adhesive-based splice kits that are common in subsea work. Kits like the 3M™ Scotchcast™ Cable Splicing Kits require you to mix and pour urethane potting compound into a mold and wait for it to cure. It’s a finicky process that takes time and leaves lots of room for variation and error.

The WetLink Cable Splice solves that! It’s pottingless, requires no molds, and has no cure time! You can make a high-pressure cable splice in just minutes.

This kit includes a small box, made with high-strength polycarbonate plastic, with holes on either end for the WetLink Penetrators, which seal to just about any cable with a compression gland seal. To use this kit, you’ll need a few items:

You’ll need:

Goodbye, messy potting compound! Hello, WetLink! 👋

Space inside allows for the wires to be connected with terminal or solder.
Fully assembled, the splice can handle 500m water depth!
