3M Scotch 2220 Electrical Stress Control Tape, 3/4 in x 5 ft, Gray

3M Scotch 2220 Electrical Stress Control Tape is designed to control electrical stress at cable terminations, splices, and stress cones in medium- and high-voltage electrical installations. Each roll measures 3/4 in x 5 ft in a Gray finish, and this SKU ships 100 rolls per case, making it a convenient bulk option for electrical contractors, linemen, and utility crews stocking cable accessory tape. As part of 3M's Scotch electrical tape line, the 2220 stress control tape helps manage the electrical field at cable insulation shield cutbacks, supporting reliable, long-lasting terminations and splices in demanding electrical environments. Stress control tape of this type is typically applied directly over the cable insulation shield cutback area before final taping layers are added, helping to reduce voids and stress concentrations that can lead to premature insulation failure over the life of the splice or termination.

Key Features

  • Trade Size: 3/4 in x 5 ft roll sized for wrapping cable terminations and splice points.
  • Stress Control Function: Applied at cable insulation shield cutbacks to help distribute electrical stress evenly across the termination area.
  • Color: Gray tape construction for easy visual identification on the job site.
  • Case Packaging: Supplied 100 rolls per case, ideal for bulk stocking by electrical distributors and contractor crews.
  • Roll Length: 5 ft length per roll provides sufficient material for multiple wraps around cable terminations.
  • Versatile Application: Suitable for wrapping cable splices, terminations, and stress cones across electrical distribution systems.
  • Model Series: Part of 3M's Scotch 2220 electrical stress control tape lineup, a recognized product family for cable termination work.

3M 2220-3/4X5FT – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What does 3M Scotch 2220 stress control tape actually do on a cable splice?
The 2220 is applied over the insulation shield cutback on a medium- or high-voltage cable so the electrical field at that cutback is spread out instead of concentrating at the edge. It goes on before the final taping layers, reducing voids and stress points that shorten the life of a splice or termination. It is not an insulating tape or a jacketing tape, so it does not replace either of those layers in a taped buildup.
2) Is 3M 2220 the same thing as regular Scotch 33+ vinyl electrical tape?
No. The 2220 is a specialty stress control tape for cable terminations, splices, and stress cones in medium- and high-voltage work. General purpose vinyl tape insulates and protects conductors but does nothing to grade the electrical field at a shield cutback. If you are building a taped splice or termination, the 2220 is one layer in the buildup, not a substitute for the vinyl insulating layers.
3) How much 2220 tape is on a roll, and is 5 feet enough for one termination?
Each roll is 3/4 in x 5 ft. That 5 ft gives enough material for multiple wraps around a cable termination, so a single roll typically covers one cutback area. For crews doing several splices in a shift, plan a roll per termination rather than stretching one roll across the job.
4) Does 3M 2220 stress control tape ship as single rolls or by the case?
This 3/4 in x 5 ft gray roll is supplied 100 rolls per case, which is why it suits distributors and contractor crews that stock cable accessory tape rather than someone needing one roll for a single repair.
5) What is the part number for 3M Scotch 2220 stress control tape in 3/4 inch by 5 foot?
Order it as 3M part 2220-3/4X5FT. That designation covers the gray 3/4 in x 5 ft roll of Scotch 2220 electrical stress control tape.
6) Where is 3M 2220 stress control tape typically used in utility and industrial work?
Medium- and high-voltage cable splicing, cable termination stress relief, utility and substation cable work, and industrial or commercial electrical maintenance. Linemen and utility crews use it at the shield cutback on shielded power cable; it has no role in low-voltage branch circuit wiring.
7) What color is 3M 2220 tape, and does the color mean anything on the job?
Gray. On a taped splice that matters practically: the gray band makes the stress control layer easy to pick out from the black insulating and jacketing tapes while you are building up the termination or inspecting someone else's work.
