Available for pipe sizes from 2 inches to 36 inches, cable splices are more efficient for installing heat trace wiring in many applications. Testing at industrial locations indicates that workers using this alternative approach can complete heat trace installations two to three times faster than with a traditional tie-wire installation method. This can lead to a 33% reduction in total installed cost.

Panduit Wave-Ty™ cable splices feature a wide, flat profile that distributes force across a wider cable surface and is less likely to damage the mineral insulation of the electrical heat trace (MIEHT). A unique design provides space for heat trace wiring to move around the structure's piping or heat exhaust. The cable splices also eliminate the sharp and cutting hazards associated with tie wires and straps.

The accompanying cable clamping tool helps ensure even tension to keep the heat tracer cabling against the intended surface. This minimizes the possibility of the heat tracer cabling being tied too tightly, which can lead to premature failure and costly repairs, or not tied firmly enough, which can result in poor heat transfer.
