A water impervious heat shrinkable rubber or plastic tube wherein a laminated metal foil layer consisting of a metal foil film having a thickness of 0.01 mm to 0.1 mm and, laminated on each surface thereof, an electrically insulating or semiconducting rubber or plastic sheet extends along the entire or partial length of the tube and over the entire periphery of the tube, the two longitudinal edges of the laminated metal foil layer overlapping in a predetermined width and the laminated metal foil layer being so arranged in the tube that the thickness of the inner tube layer inside the laminated metal foil layer is smaller than the thickness of the outer tube layer outside the laminated metal foil layer.
A device for fighting fires in at least one cable or line run At least one pipe, which contains a fire-extinguishing agent under positive pressure, is laid in at least one cable or line run. The wall of this pipe is produced from a material whose melting point is chosen to be lower than the ignition point of the cable sheath of an adjacent cable.
A water impervious rubber or plastic insulated power cable, which is capable of maintaining water imperviousness for an extended period of time, is provided, which power cable comprising: a cable core having a conductor, an extruded conductor shield, a rubber or plastic insulation layer and an extruded insulation shield, the last three members being sequentially formed around the conductor; a water impervious layer which is provided around the cable core and which includes a laminate tape comprising a metal foil and a plastic laminated on at least one surface of the metal foil; an extruded jacket layer which is extruded on the water impervious layer and which is made integral with the plastic of the water impervious layer; a metal shield layer which is provided around the extruded jacket layer and which includes metallic wires; and a corrosion-protective layer which is extruded on the metal shield layer and in which the metal shield layer is embedded.
A heat-insulated conduit having at least one internal tube (1), a heat-insulating layer (2), an intermediate layer (3), a film (4) and a corrugated external tube (5).
A hose of elastomeric material has an insert of metal material for making the hose diffusion-proof. To impart plastic memory to the hose, i.e. make it plastically deformable, the insert according to the invention consists of at least two substantially completely overlapping metal foil layers of a ductile metal material which are fully glued and bonded to each other by means of a binder layer.
A flexible hose for use in heating systems has an aluminum barrier layer for preventing ingestion of oxygen. The aluminum barrier layer is securely bonded between two adhesion tubes which are vulcanized in place against the aluminum. Vulcanization is performed in the presence of peroxide. Principal active ingredients of the adhesion tubes are ethylene propylene diene polymethylene and polybutadiene-maleic anhydride adduct resin.
