Quick Start Guide

Custom Color Insulation Sleeves
Applications:
Equipment manufacturers that prefer a non-standard color
scheme to:
1. Comply to performance requirements
(Example: military camouage)
2. Improve item identication during assembly
and maintenance
3. Strengthen brand identity
Customer Concern:
A manufacturer of amusement rides required insulated terminal
products that had very little appearance in low light areas. The
appearance of the wiring would reduce the impact of the
entertainment experience.
Panduit Solution:
Custom Color Insulated Terminal Products.
Modied colorant was added to the vinyl insulation material.
Samples were checked with the customer to verify a color
match. The colorant did not alter the electrical or mechanical
performance of the vinyl insulated terminal products. The part
dimensions were maintained, which prevented any required
change of crimp tools, dies, or UL certication.
Application Considerations:
Consult factory to match specic color for your application.
The ability to identify wire range from industry standard
[Red (18 – 22 AWG); Blue (14 – 16 AWG);Yellow (10 – 12 AWG)]
is lost when non-standard colors are used, as it is difcult to
differentiate barrel sizes when insulation housings are all the
same color.
