You should use a minimum of two half-lapped layers of vinyl tape to insulate and jacket low-voltage components. A half-lap (see Figure above) consists of overlaying each turn by one-half the width of the tape. The general rule of thumb calls for a tape thickness of 1.5 times the thickness of existing wire or cable insulation. In every case, tension on the tape should be sufficient to conform the tape evenly to the surface. A slight reduction in tension is encouraged for the final wrap. Trim the tape end and allow it to return to shape before pressing down with the thumb to avoid lifting or flagging.
Another significant benefit of butyl rubber tape is its exceptional sealing properties. It is often used as a waterproofing solution, capable of sealing joints, gaps, and cracks to prevent water intrusion. This feature is particularly valuable in roofing applications, where leaks can lead to extensive damage and costly repairs. Butyl rubber tape can also be used in plumbing to seal pipes and fixtures effectively.
This tape is really designed for electrical insulation applications and is a popular choice here. It isn't made from Silicone like the others on this page, rather it is made from Ethylene Propylene; a different type of rubber compound. Manufactured by 3M, this quality tape is kept in two different widths (19mm & 25mm). Rolls are 9 Metres Long.
Long lasting applications + great for quick fixes.
