An
electrical tape is a type of adhesive tape which can be used to insulate
electrical wires and other materials that conduct electricity. Mostly vinyl is
used to make this tape because it can stretch well and give an effective and
long-lasting insulation. Depending on your specific need, you can choose from
the following varieties of electrical tapes:
Vinyl electrical tape: A vinyl
electrical tape is made of soft, stretchy vinyl which can conform to the connection,
forming a safe, secure insulating wrap. This tape comes in a wide range of
grades, sizes and colors for any application ranging from general purpose to
automotive to aerospace. You can use this tape for cable marking, jar and can
sealing, decoration and much more.
Polyester mylar electrical tape: A
polyester mylar electrical tape is thin and conformable, making it a perfect
choice for wrapping coils, capacitors and potentiometers. This tape also has
excellent abrasion resistance, which makes it ideal for dissimilar metals
separation.
Teflon electrical tape: This tape can
be used in a wide range of applications where superior electrical resistance is
needed. A teflon electrical tape can withstand temperatures ranging from 40°F
to 500°F. It is perfect for over-wrapping high voltage coils in a wide range of
applications.
Fiberglass cloth electrical tape: A
fiberglass cloth electrical tape is woven from fiberglass cloth, which offers
excellent temperature resistance, conformability, chemical and solvent
resistance. This tape is perfect for wiring harnesses and high temperature
non-electrical applications.
Self-fusing silicone rubber tape: A
self-fusing silicone rubber tape is a stretchy, non-adhesive rubber tape that
bonds to itself and is the perfect tape for toolkit. You can use this tape to
cover splices, wrap harnesses and fix small leaks in hoses.
Cloth friction tape: This tape is made
up of black cotton cloth with a non-corrosive rubber resin adhesive. It is very
flexible. A cloth friction tape is ideal for wrapping wires, cables and
harnesses to protect them from damage due to abrasion or handling.
I am looking for a tape which offers excellent temperature resistance and is used for high temperature non-electrical applications. Can someone suggest a suitable tape?
ReplyDeleteFiberglass Cloth Electrical Tapes would be perfect for your purpose. Woven from fiberglass cloth, these tapes offer excellent temperature resistance, conformability, as well as chemical and solvent resistance. It can be printed for FAR Compliance and is perfect for wiring harnesses, coil armor wrap and high temperature non-electrical applications.
