- At its core, cloth insulation tape is a fabric-based adhesive tape that is coated with a rubber or acrylic adhesive. Its primary function is to provide insulation to electrical wires and components, preventing accidental short circuits and ensuring the safe flow of electricity. The 'cloth' component refers to the backing material, which could be cotton, polyester, or a combination, offering flexibility, strength, and resistance to wear and tear.
The rubber adhesive used in Polyethylene Rubber Tape offers several advantages that contribute to its performance and effectiveness.
3M rubber tapes have operating temperatures ranging from 176°F (80°C) to 221°F (105°C). Some, Linerless Rubber Splicing Tape 130C and Rubber Splicing Tape 23, have overloads temperatures up to 266°F (130°C). Because of this high heat attribute; there are many industrial settings where it is common to use rubber tape in lower voltage applications to moisture seal, pad and insulate:
The fireproof belt shall be properly stretched and wrapped on the fireproof part of the cable in the form of a 1/2semi cover. The length of the lap shall meet the requirements of the design department. At the end of wrapping, stretch the fireproof wrapping beltvigorously, and double wrapping with glass fiber.

Generally speaking, manufacturers use three different adhesive types in combination with the backing material to produce a final “tape” product. Though these adhesive types can be subdivided into subgroups, the main categories are as follows:

Many factors have to be considered in designing outdoor consumer electronics, and that’s particularly true of their control boxes. The needs of the control systems for these devices can include some or all of the following:
