Need a reliable and durable method to splice underwater power cables to floating pump motors at 575V that prevents moisture ingress and premature failure.

Existing splicing methods for underwater pump motors often fail prematurely due to moisture, and no purpose-built solution effectively prevents failure for high-voltage (575V) submersible applications.

Workarounds Described

Uses heat shrinking butt crimps with heat shrink over top, staggered
Runs a bead of silicone along splice and slides another heat shrink over
Applies thick heat shrink with goo, then Super 88 tape, then cheap tape

App Concept

AquaSplice Pro

A specialized underwater motor splice kit designed for high-voltage (up to 600V) submersible pumps. The kit includes pre-measured materials, step-by-step instructions, and a proprietary multi-layer sealant system that is faster and more reliable than manual taping, ensuring splices outlast the motor.

Key Features

Pre-cut heat shrink with adhesive liner
Self-amalgamating silicone tape
UV-resistant outer wrap
Step-by-step visual guide included
Rated for 600V continuous submersible use

Target Users: Field technicians and maintenance electricians working with submersible pumps in wastewater treatment, agriculture, and industrial facilities, typically at companies with 10-200 employees.

Revenue Model: $29.99 per kit, sold in 5-packs for $129.99; also available via subscription for recurring buyers at $99.99 quarterly.
