A warm bowl of chili is perfect after a long day of hiking. In your cast iron Dutch oven, sauté onions, bell peppers, and garlic until soft. Add ground meat (or a meat substitute) and brown it thoroughly. Then, mix in canned tomatoes, kidney beans, chili spices, and simmer over the fire. This one-pot meal is rich in flavor and will warm you from the inside out.

In addition to being built differently than other tapes, most electrical tapes used by professionals are UL Listed, which means that they have been vigorously tested for performance when exposed to environmental elements, such as cold temperature, moisture, and sunlight. UL Listed electrical tapes are also tested for physical properties, including backing strength, elongation, and adhesive strength and must meet a high standard in order to qualify for the listing. UL Listings exist for many other types of tape – such as foil and film HVAC tapes – but each listing revolves around the specific type of tape in question. So, while your foil tape may meet UL Listing requirements for sealing rigid ducts in HVAC applications, it would not meet the code if used in an electrical application.
J50 High-voltage EPR Rubber Tape
Polyethylene tape is not only adhesive to a variety of surfaces, but it is also chemical resistant, moisture resistant, abrasion resistant, and can be UV resistant, making it an excellent protective tape. It will not crack or crease in low temperatures and does not yellow with age.

Easy Application and Removal


The rubber adhesive used in Polyethylene Rubber Tape offers several advantages that contribute to its performance and effectiveness.
The Versatility of Black Flex Tape
According to Steve Anderson, a National Joint Apprenticeship and Training Committee (NJATC) director, the NJATC believes strongly in the importance of splice and termination taping skills for electricians and linemen. “Taping is the first thing covered in our cable splice training course, and we spend a lot of time in this area,” Anderson says.
