Implosive connectors by isc

Full Tension Splices

Dead End Joints

Jumper Terminals

Implosive splices are available in several types, including Dead End Joints, Jumper Terminals, Full Tension Joints, and Anchor Terminations. These splices are compatible with a wide range of commonly used conductors and steel ropes, such as:

  • ACSR (Aluminum Conductor Steel Reinforced)

  • ACSR (Aluminum Conductor Steel Supported)

  • AAC (All Aluminum Conductor)

  • AAAC (All Aluminum Alloy Conductor)

  • ACAR (Aluminum Conductor Alloy Reinforced)

  • AASC (Aluminum Alloy Steel Conductor)

  • Steel guy wire (ranging from 0.5 inches to 1.5 inches)

  • Aluminum conductors (ranging from 50 mm² to 1584 mm²)

  • Steel conductors (ranging from 39 mm² to 900 mm²)

This ensures a versatile solution for a range of applications in electrical and structural installations.

services


accessories

ISC provides all the necessary accessories for installing implosive connectors (ie.: detonators, shock tubes, initiators, magazine log books, blasting log books, and anvil cutters for cutting shock tubes).

packaging

Implosive connectors are stored in robust, stackable, weatherproof wooden boxes.

They remain durable in all weather conditions and are easy to handle in challenging field conditions.

Each box is lightweight enough for one person to carry, and every one includes a field installation manual.

storage

Implosive connectors must be stored in magazines that are specified and licensed in accordance with NRCAN/ERD requirements, BNQ 2910-500 (2015).

ISC will assist you in obtaining the necessary licenses for your magazine and, if required, for a separate compartment for detonators.

If portability is a priority, the magazine can be mounted on axles for transport.


training

ISC will take great care in instructing line crews on proper installation techniques and product safety.

A classroom session offers a comprehensive review of the relevant regulatory requirements governing the safe handling, storage, and transportation of implosive sleeves.

A field training session provides practical, hands-on experience, giving trainees a solid understanding of the process involved in installing implosive sleeves.

testing

All products are tested in independent, accredited labs. Testing includes:

  • Tensile Load Test to IEC 61284 Cl11.5.1

  • Electrical Current Cycling Test to IEC 61284 Cl 13

  • Visual Corona Test to CSA C83

  • Radio Influence Voltage Test to CSA C108.3.1

  • Impact Test to ASTM A370, E23

  • Weld Crack Test to ASTM E1471

support

Implosive Sleeves Corporation provides around-the-clock technical support to ensure customers have the guidance they need, whenever and wherever it’s required.

The team also works closely with customers to plan and manage inventory requirements, drawing on decades of industry experience to anticipate needs and reduce uncertainty.

This service-focused approach helps customers operate with confidence, knowing expert support is always close at hand.
