3M 130C Rubber Splicing Tape Scotch Linerless (3/4″ X 30′) (19MM X 9Meter)

Scotch® Linerless Rubber Splicing Tape 130C is a highly conformable, linerless, ethylene rubber (EPR), high-voltage insulating tape, formulated to provide excellent thermal dissipation of splice heat. The tape is designed for use in splicing and terminating wires and cables. Rated up to 90°C continuous operating temperatures and short-term 130°C overload service. The tape has excellent physical and electrical properties, which provide immediate moisture seals and void-free build-ups. This product can be used for low and high-voltage (through 69 kV) applications.

Specifications

The high-voltage corona resistant tape must be supplied without a liner, be based on ethylene propylene rubber, and be capable of emergency operating cable temperature of 130°C. The tape must be capable of being applied in either stretched or unstretched conditions without resulting in loss of either physical or electrical properties. The tape must not split, crack, slip, or flag when exposed to various environments (indoor or outdoor). The tape must be compatible with all synthetic cable insulations and have a shelf life of five years.
