• Electrical Safety Performance - Provides reliable protection against electrical shock and short circuits in 600V systems

Technical Specifications

Dimensions: 3/4 inch width x .007 inch thickness x 66 feet length, Voltage Rating: 600V primary insulation, Operating Temperature: Up to 80°C (176°F), Construction: Flame retardant vinyl with pressure-sensitive adhesive, Color: Red for phase identification, Compliance: UL recognized components for electrical applications, Adhesion: Pressure-sensitive adhesive for secure bonding to wire insulation and electrical components.

Installation & Setup

1. Clean wire splice or connection area to remove dirt, moisture, and oxidation for optimal adhesive bonding
2. Begin wrapping tape at least 1/2 inch beyond damaged insulation area, overlapping each wrap by 50% for complete coverage
3. Apply tape with moderate tension to ensure conformability while avoiding over-stretching that reduces insulation thickness
4. Continue wrapping beyond splice area by at least 1/2 inch to ensure complete insulation coverage
5. Press final wrap firmly to activate pressure-sensitive adhesive and create secure termination
6. Verify complete coverage with no gaps or exposed conductors before energizing circuit

Professional Applications

Ideal for:

• Residential Electrical - Wire splicing, junction box connections, and branch circuit repairs in homes and apartments
• Commercial Wiring - Office building electrical systems, retail installations, and light commercial applications
• Industrial Maintenance - Equipment wiring repairs, control panel connections, and machinery electrical systems
• Telecommunications - Low voltage wiring protection, cable bundling, and equipment grounding applications
• Automotive Electrical - Vehicle wiring harness repairs, trailer connections, and mobile equipment installations
• HVAC Systems - Control wiring, thermostat connections, and equipment electrical protection
• Emergency Repairs - Temporary insulation for damaged wire insulation until permanent repairs can be completed
• Phase Identification - Color coding electrical conductors for proper circuit identification and safety
