We are pleased to stock a number of different self-fusing tapes. All are electrically insulating though some are often used for sealing work (e.g. fixing a leaking hose) in addition to electrical applications.

Fire seal tape is widely used in numerous applications throughout the construction process. For instance, it is often applied in fire-rated walls and ceilings to seal penetrations created by electrical, plumbing, and HVAC installations. These penetrations can act as channels for smoke and heat, compromising the fire-resistance of a structure. By using fire seal tape, contractors can effectively minimize these vulnerabilities, thus enhancing the overall safety of the building.
Butyl rubber, a synthetic rubber, is derived from the polymerization of isobutylene, with a small percentage of isoprene. This composition grants butyl rubber exceptional qualities, such as high impermeability to gases and moisture, excellent flexibility, and outstanding resistance to UV exposure and weather elements. These characteristics make butyl rubber an ideal candidate for roofing applications, where weather resistance and durability are paramount.
Busbars are conductive material strips used to distribute electrical energy within power distribution systems. Given the high voltage levels these systems often operate under, the insulation of busbars becomes paramount. Proper insulation safeguards against electrical arcing, shorts, and leakage currents, which can lead to catastrophic failures and safety hazards.

At its core, insulation tape is designed to insulate electrical wires and other conductive materials. The 50mm width makes it especially suited for larger cables and applications where broader coverage is necessary. Typically made from a blend of PVC and rubber, black insulation tape is favored for its durability and resistance to electric current, heat, and moisture. The black color also provides a sleek look that blends well with many surfaces, making it ideal for both visible and hidden applications.
Single-side butyl tape works great when you need to bond two objects together whereas the latter can be used as a sealant or gasket. Plus, it's also available in various colors that make certain applications even easier!
