Raytech Casting Joints

Raytech Casting Joints
Raytech casting joints provide gel-filled solutions for insulating and protecting low-voltage cable connections.
Engineering Supplies stocks straight, branch and multi-direction joint systems for electrical, industrial, mining, utility and infrastructure applications.
Raytech’s Magic Joint technology uses two-piece enclosures filled with fast-cross-linking insulating gel. In addition, Raytech specifies its Magic Joint range for 0.6/1kV extruded cables, with IP68 protection and re-entry after installation.

Raytech Cable Joint Range
Our range includes:

Raytech Magic Joint – Straight for in-line cable connections
Raytech Magic Joint Y for through-and-branch connections
Magic Joint Plus L for multi-core in-line connections
Magic Joint Plus Y for Y-branch configurations
Magic Joint Plus T for T-shaped branch connections
Magic Fire Joint for applications requiring the dedicated fire-performance version
Raytech Magic Box for general gel-filled electrical connections

Engineering Supplies currently lists all seven products within this category.

Gel-Filled Electrical Cable Joints
Raytech Magic Joint systems use Magic Gel to surround and insulate the electrical connection.
Unlike hard-setting resin, the gel remains soft after cross-linking. Therefore, installers can access the connection again for inspection or maintenance.
Furthermore, Raytech specifies Magic Joint for installation in pits, ducts, directly underground and underwater. The current manufacturer data also lists a gel cross-linking time of approximately 10 minutes at 23°C.

Choosing the Correct Cable Joint
Select the joint according to:

Number of cable cores
Conductor cross-section
Copper or aluminium conductor
Cable outside diameter
Straight or branch configuration
Required enclosure size
Installation environment

For example, a straight in-line connection requires a different enclosure from a Y or T branch. Likewise, conductor size alone may not determine the correct joint because the finished cable outside diameter must also fit the enclosure.
Therefore, always check the individual product specifications before ordering.

Underground & Submerged Cable Joints
Many Raytech joint systems suit demanding outdoor and underground installations.
Typical applications include:

Cable pits
Underground cable connections
Electrical infrastructure
Utilities
Mining installations
Industrial plants
Outdoor electrical systems
Submerged connections

In particular, Raytech specifies the standard Magic Joint system with IP68 protection, a 90°C operating temperature and installation temperatures from -15°C to +55°C.
