The most commonly ordered and popular versions ares 1" wide, 0.020" thick, in Type I or Type II and in Oxide-red or Black color. If you need assistance in choosing a variant please read our FAQ or contact our Technical Support.
FlameShieldä Amphenol connector back-shell clamp isolation tape is a silicone rubber self-fusing self-amalgamating tape meeting MIL and commercial specifications. The tape is used to form bushings to aid in strain relief. Popular for use in avionics and marine wiring.
The tape has no adhesive, but sticks to itself (self-fuses or self-amalgamating) when stretched and wrapped onto itself. The tapes starts curing within minutes, and after several hours cannot be unwound or removed without using a sharp knife or blade. This tape makes a waterproof, weatherproof and air tight protection. Oxide-red and black colors are standard - other colors are available.
Available in widths from 1/2" / 12.9mm up to 3" / 76mm. Available in standard non-reinforced version (unsupported) or with sinusoidal weave glass reinforcement (supported).
FlameShieldä Amphenol tapes provide superior electrical insulation with a minimum of 300 volts per mil (.001") of tape thickness at 365°F / 180°C. A 20mil tape therefore provides 6000 volts per wrap of insulation value.
This tape is also used to wrap hydraulic connections and to make vibration resistant bumpers and spacers for wiring, cable, hose, pipes and lines. This tape is used to wrap and hold insulation in place on hot air ducts. Makes an in-situ bushing for protecting wiring at the back-shell clamp.
