Red Electrical Tape PVC Tape

Description

Red Electrical Tape PVC Tape refers to a type of pressure-sensitive tape made from polyvinyl chloride (PVC) and coated with a rubber-based adhesive. It’s primarily used for insulating electrical wires and other materials that conduct electricity.

Key Features:

• Material: PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride) – offers durability, flexibility, and flame resistance.
• Color: Red – often used for phase identification, marking live wires, or differentiating electrical systems.
• Adhesive: Rubber-based – provides good adhesion to various surfaces.
• Temperature Resistance: Typically ranges from -10°C to 80°C (14°F to 176°F), depending on the brand.
• Voltage Rating: Most standard tapes are rated up to 600 volts.
• Thickness: Usually around 0.13mm – 0.18mm.
• Width/Length: Commonly 0.75 in (19mm) wide and 66 ft (20m) long, but variations exist.

Common Uses:

• Electrical insulation of spliced wires.
• Color coding for phases or voltage levels.
• Cable bundling and organization.
• Temporary repairs or protection from abrasion and moisture.
