Product Description

Scotch Vinyl Electrical Tape Super 88 is an 8.5 mil thick, premium grade, all weather tape that is designed to provide a protective jacket and primary electrical insulation for splices up to 600V. The flame-retardant tape withstands a temperature range of 0 to 221F (-18 to 105C). 

Scotch Vinyl Electrical Tape Super 88 is thicker for heavy-duty use yet highly conformable for a smooth wrap for every application. The pressure-sensitive rubber-based adhesive is compatible with solid dielectric cable insulations, rubber and synthetic splicing compounds as well as epoxy and polyurethane resins. 

 

Designed to perform continuously, it can be used for indoor or outdoor applications to inhibit the corrosion of electrical conductors and provide UV protection. 

It has excellent resistance to abrasion, moisture, alkalis, acids and corrosion. 

  

Elastic backing and aggressive adhesive provide moisture-tight electrical and mechanical protection with minimum bulk. Use for permanent low voltage primary and secondary insulation, cable jacketing, mechanical protection and padding.

    Excellent adhesive properties. Used about a four inch double strip of the tape (sticky side to sticky side) to electrically isolate and insulate a heavy amplifier's potentially hot output transistors from the unit's metal-framed cooling fan.

    I’ve used a lot of e tape, especially cheap e tape. I assumed it was all the same, so my bulk packs from harbor freight were good enough. For some reason this popped up and I said what the heck why not? Bad idea. It’s so good. It’s so much more pliable, can corner without buckling, I don’t know if I can go back to the cheap stuff knowing this exists.

    If you are frustrated with electrical tape that does not stay stuck, you should purchase the 3M product instead. This is the only brand I use - super strong, sticks well and is thicker than most brands.

    After years of being a DIYer, I have found that cheaper off brand tapes whether used for masking, wrapping, general use, or electrical use are of poor quality and not worth the perceived savings. For these purposes, its best to get quality brand name items like the Scotch name or other 3M tapes or risk getting disappointing results even though you may pay more initially.
