stevieboy Posted April 19, 2006 Share Posted April 19, 2006 Hi all, I was hoping that one of you good people could help me out. I've been trying to find out what a cable udder is, I've searched the web without any success, but I think it could be the heat shrink sleaving that covers the outer insulation as well as the 3/4 individual insulated cores, thus looking slightly like a udder. If anyone could confirm that this is the case or completely wrong I would be grateful. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Magus Posted April 20, 2006 Share Posted April 20, 2006 This term is new to me - and as the poster states, unknown to Google. Do we have a member with an udder fixation? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest lightnix Posted April 20, 2006 Share Posted April 20, 2006 No, I was sure I'd heard the term before, although it was a long time ago and unusual even back then (80s?); it may have been from an old-school Film/TV spark. IIRC it described something similar to the product shown in the link - a multiway insulating boot for covering cable splits of one sort or another, kind of thingy... It was a very long time ago... :huh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pritch Posted July 25, 2007 Share Posted July 25, 2007 Time to resurrect an old thread... Are they a piece of formed heatshrink or something? Does anyone know where to get these? Preferably somewhere that does small quantities, only need a couple. I've been looking and can't find any, but I feel I may just be searching for the wrong thing.
