3M Temflex 165 Vinyl Electrical Tape, 3/4-Inch x 60-ft, 6 mil

The 3M Temflex 165 Vinyl Electrical Tape is a general use electrical tape engineered for everyday wire insulation, splicing, and wrapping tasks on residential, commercial, and light industrial job sites. Built with a 6 mil vinyl backing, this tape measures 3/4-Inch wide by 60-ft in length and is available in Blue, White, and Yellow so electricians, contractors, and maintenance crews can choose the color that best supports phase identification and circuit color-coding on any job. Formulated as a general-purpose vinyl tape, the Temflex 165 line gives installers a dependable, conformable option for daily wire splicing, wrapping, and insulation repairs, and the generous 60-ft roll length helps reduce mid-job tape changes on longer wiring runs.

3M 165BL4A – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What colors does the 3M Temflex 165 electrical tape come in for phase marking?
Temflex 165 in the 3/4 inch by 60 ft size comes in three colors: Blue (165BL4A), White (165WH4A), and Yellow (165YL4A). Those three cover common phase and circuit color-coding work, so if you are marking A/B/C phases on a 277/480V system you will need to pair them with the other phase colors from the same Temflex line.
2) Is 6 mil vinyl tape thick enough for insulating wire splices?
The 6 mil vinyl backing on Temflex 165 is the standard thickness for general-purpose wire insulation, splicing, and wrapping on residential, commercial, and light industrial work. For heavier-duty premium work, or where you want all-weather performance and longer service life, electricians typically step up to 3M's 7 mil Super 33+ or Super 88. The 165 is the everyday roll for panel and junction box work.
3) What size roll is the 3M Temflex 165, and how much tape do I get?
Each roll is 3/4 inch wide by 60 ft long. That is double the length of a standard 3/4 inch x 30 ft roll, which is why it suits stocking service trucks and maintenance carts where you do not want to change rolls mid-run.
4) Will 3/4 inch electrical tape wrap a wire nut or an irregular splice tightly?
Yes. The vinyl backing stretches and conforms, so it pulls down over wire nuts, lug terminations, and irregular connection shapes without bridging. 3/4 inch is the standard trade width for wrapping conductors and splices, so it half-laps cleanly over most building wire.
5) Can I use Temflex 165 tape outdoors or in a wet location?
Temflex 165 is specified as a general use tape for everyday wiring, splicing, and repair work, with typical applications in residential, commercial, and light industrial settings, panels, and junction boxes. For outdoor, direct-burial, or wet-location splices, use an all-weather rated vinyl tape or a proper splice kit instead of a general-purpose roll.
6) How many rolls of white and yellow tape do I order for a facility maintenance stock program?
Each color is ordered separately by part number: Blue is 165BL4A, White is 165WH4A, Yellow is 165YL4A. There is a single size on all three, 3/4 inch by 60 ft at 6 mil, so your stock quantities are just a per-color count rather than a size and color matrix.
