Politubes produces various types of insulating caps designed according to the requirements of hermetic closure, positioning, size and protection from chemical agents as required by our customers.
Caps are produced by sealing one of the two ends of multilayer spiral tubes. They are designed and produced according to customer specifications both in heat-shrinkable or not heat-shrinkable version.
They can be supplied in perfectly round or oval form to facilitate insertion and to reduce the overall dimensions.
Their dielectric strength can reach 303kV/mm with reference to the ASTM-D-149-91 test method and are used within a temperature range of -50°C/+300°C.
Our adhesives, carefully selected during our forty years of experience, comply with all REACH and RoHS regulations and guarantee that the original properties of the films used are fully maintained.
They are used for thermal protectors insulation inside electric motors and compressors, for wiring or for protecting cables welding of the same phase inside the windings, in order to avoid wires ends to damage the surrounding parts .
Ultrasonic welded spiral winding end caps provide a hermetic seal on one side that guarantees perfect and fast positioning, also thanks to the heat shrink technique, providing eccelent dielectric and thermic properties and perfect protection from chemicals.
It is chosen also for its higher mechanical strenght and perforation protection.
These precision products are electrical insulating caps – end caps for insulating electrical components such as crimping terminals and connections to magnet wires within electric motors, motor lead termination, compressors, connections in motors and transfomers or thermal switches used within motor windings and cable harness.
The ultrasonic seal is based on multilayered spiral winding tubes.
We supply the following ultrasonic welded end caps:
- Mylar A – Polyester A caps and end caps
- Mylar HS – Polyester HS caps and end caps
- Nomex/Mylar A – Nomex/Polyester A caps and end caps
- Nomex/Mylar HS – Nomex/Polyester HS caps and end caps
- Low shrink Polyester AHS-2LSO caps and end caps
- Class F Non woven Polyester caps and end caps
- Kapton – Polyimide caps and end caps
All raw materials used, including Polyester A (Mylar® A) are supplied by the industry’s world leaders, are all UL certified and provide excellent electric, thermal, chemical and environmental insulation.
Accurately combined, they can be used in a wide range of temperatures between -50°C e +300°C.
We also offer ultrasonic seals using Polyimide films.
Adhesives in all products meet REACH and RoHS standards and guarantee that the original properties of the films used are fully maintained.
End caps are supplied with internal diameter ranging between 2 and 70 mm and thickness between 100 and 500 micron. The standard seal length is between 3 and 5 mm. End caps are also supplied in custom colours, including helicoidal stripes for easy identification
Politubes technical office is available to listen to your needs and offer you tailor-made innovative solutions.

Ultrasonic dot welded spiral winding end caps have the advantage of narrower seal widths compared to classic ultrasonically sealed ones, which run the entire length of the tube.
The product offers perfect and fast positioning, also thanks to the heat shrink technique, providing eccelent dielectric and thermic properties and perfect protection from chemicals.
It is chosen also for its higher mechanical strenght and perforation protection.
These precision products are electrical insulating caps – end caps for insulating electrical components such as crimping terminals and connections to magnet wires within electric motors, connections in motors, motor lead termination, compressors , transformers , cable harness or thermal switches used within motor windings.

Bullnose spiral wound end caps enable the tube width to be reduced at one end, helping its insertion into the copper windings of electrical motors and avoiding damage to the enamelled wire.
It locks perfectly cables at one end without any risk slipping as it can happen instead when inserting the normal insulating tubes open on both sides.
The product offers perfect and fast positioning, also thanks to the heat shrink technique, providing excellent dielectric, thermic mechanical properties, a perfect adhesion, and protection from chemical agents.
It is chosen also for its higher mechanical strenght and perforation protection.
These precision products are electrical insulating heat shrink caps for insulating electrical components such as crimping terminals and connections to magnet wires within electric motors, motor lead termination, connections in motors, compressors and transformers or thermal switches used within motor windings.
The bullnose closure lets the cap maintain the tube’s diameter in the seal area, reducing its overall size.
We supply the following heat shrink bullnose end caps:
- Mylar HS, Poliestere HS heat shrink caps and end caps
- Nomex/Mylar HS, Nomex/Poliestere HS heat shrink caps and end caps
- Type AHS-2LSO / Nomex411 low shrink caps and end caps
- Class F Non woven polyester heat shrink bullnose caps and end caps
All raw materials used, including Polyester A (Mylar® A) are supplied by the industry’s world leaders, are all UL certified and provide excellent electric, thermal, chemical and environmental insulation.
Accurately combined, they can be used in a wide range of temperatures between -50°C and +180°C.
Adhesives in all products meet REACH and RoHS standards and guarantee that the original properties of the films used are fully maintained.
Bullnose end caps are supplied with internal diameter ranging between 5 and 14 mm and thickness between 100 and 500 micron.
The standard seal length is between 4 and 5 mm and may vary upon request. End caps are also supplied in custom colours, including helicoidal stripes for easy identification.

Semi-caps have a closed radius that ensures the easy and damage-free insertion of gaskets in mechanical parts with sharp edges.
They are predominately used to protect gaskets, cylinder heads, shims, valve, valve guides and bearings.
They are also used for the easy insertion and protection of O-rings in combustion engines to avoid damage; the closed radius also prevents caps from slipping on the valve.
This product is also used when inserting Dunlop, Schrader and Presta valves in tyres to prevent the valve metal from damaging the tyre.
The raw material used is UL certified low heat shrink polyester AHS-2LSO.
Adhesives in all products meet REACH and RoHS standards and guarantee that the original properties of the films used are fully maintained.
Semi-caps are supplied with internal diameter ranging between 5 and 12 mm, thickness between 75 and 150 micron, and length over 7 mm.
The closed radius can be between 2 and 5 mm long. The semi-caps are also supplied in custom colours, including spiral stripes for easy identification.
