RS PRO Grey PVC Electrical Insulation Tape, 19mm x 33m

RS PRO Grey PVC Electrical Insulation Tape, 19mm x 33m

Introducing the range of RS PRO Electrical Insulation tape, ideal for insulating electrical components. This tape protects against hazards such as electric shocks and fires by preventing any transfer of the electrical current to other components. This tape is a necessity when installing or repairing electrical components.

Insulation tape is colour coded to match its phase and voltage level. This ensures that any work can be identified to avoid injuries and electrical faults. This RS PRO Electrical Insulation tape is grey which is not commonly used within the UK but in the US and international countries, grey indicates low voltage, phase C.

This electrical tape is made from PVC, which has great shielding properties. It is also UV and water-resistant for long-lasting use. This PVC Insulation Tape is coated with a cross-linked solvent-based rubber resin adhesive providing safe, functional and durable performance, making it ideal for electrical insulation works.

Features and Benefits:

• Self-extinguishing


• Adhesion strength of 2.1-2.4 Newton centimetres (N/cm)


• Water and UV-resistant


• Adhesive material made from rubber resin


• Abrasion resistant


• Breakdown voltage of 8.0 kV


• Grey colour for phase C live wire indication

Applications:

The RS PRO electrical insulation tape is used by engineers, electricians or specialised tradespeople for electrical installation, electrical applications, maintenance and repairs. It is used for safety to protect and insulate electrical wiring. For example, this PVC tape protects against electric shocks by preventing any transfer of the electrical current.

What is electrical insulation tape?

Electrical insulation tape is a product used to insulate wires that conduct electricity. The tape protects from the transfer of electrical currents to other components or people. The tape prevents hazards such as fires.

Is electrical insulation tape flammable?

Electrical insulation tape is Flame retardant. This helps prevent wires from catching fire. The insulation tape is also Self-extinguishing meaning that once the source of the flame is removed, the tape will cease burning.
