1 3 Tapes Glossary of Taping Terms 136 Vinyl Electrical Tapes 137 Corrosion Protection Tapes 145 Special Use Tapes Tapes Insulating and Splicing Tapes 140 Sealing and Insulating Tapes 143 Electrical, Electronic and EMI Shielding Tapes 150 In the early 1940s, vinyl plastic emerged as a highly versatile material for a wide range of applications, from shower curtains to cable insulation. Making it work for tape, however, was a different story. A major ingredient in vinyl film was tricresyl phosphate (TCP), which was used as a plasticizer. Unfortunately, TCP tended to migrate, giving the surface of the vinyl film an oily quality and degrading every tape adhesive known. Research chemists and engineers at 3M set out to create a dependable, pressure-sensitive tape made of vinyl film that would have the required electrical, physical and chemical properties. Experiments were conducted combining new plasticizers with the white, flour-like vinyl resin. Finally, in January 1946, inventors Snell, Oace, and Eastwood of 3M applied for a patent for a vinyl electrical tape with a plasticizer system and non-sulfur-based rubber adhesive that were compatible. The first commercially available version of the tape was sold for use as a wire-harness wrapping. Interestingly, this original black tape wasn t black at all. The first 3M tape sold was yellow, and later versions were white. White tape, because of its instability in ultraviolet light, was eventually replaced with black tape, although colored vinyl tapes are still used as identification and marking tapes. Black became the standard industry color for vinyl tape, primarily because of its ultraviolet resistance. Thicknesses originally were 4-mil, 8-mil and 12-mil. These were standardized to 7-mil, 8.5 mil and 10-mil in Taping Tips Although challenging in its make-up and manufacture, vinyl electrical tape is relatively straightforward in its use. Nevertheless, to ensure the safest, most reliable use, always: Apply tape with enough stretch to conform to the objects you re wrapping. Be sure to let the last couple of inches relax before tabbing it down to prevent unwinding (sometimes called flagging ). Wrap an irregular mechanical connector, such as a split bolt, with rubber tape to pad sharp edges, before over wrapping it with vinyl electrical tape. Wrap cone-shaped (high voltage splices) uphill that is, from the smallest to the largest point. This way you always secure the previous layer. Keep fingers close together when tearing tape. The farther apart they are, the more the tape will stretch before it tears. Use the right tape for the right conditions. Vinyl tapes are rated for cold-weather application in two classes: 32 F (0 C) and 0 F (-18 C). Tapes formulated for high-temperature environments are typically rated 176 F (80 C) or 220 F (105 C). Wrapping Tips Type of Tape Vinyl Electrical Tapes Jacketing and Mechanical Protection Rubber Tapes Electrical Insulation, Mechanical Padding Water Sealing and Shaping High Voltage Tapes Insulating and Semi-conductive Layers Mastic Compounds Insulating, Mechanical Padding, Moisture Sealing and Shaping Number of Layers/Application Instructions Always use a minimum of two half-lapped layers. The last layer should be wrapped in a more relaxed manner let the last wrap relax to prevent the layer from flagging. Wrap tape tightly to achieve the water tight seal. Rubber tapes are typically overwrapped with vinyl tape. Apply outside of roll to the cable, in highly stretched half-lapped layers. Never use a semi-conductive tape as an insulation. Mastic compounds are to be overwrapped with vinyl tapes to initiate flow and watertight seal. Do not apply excessive amount of mastic to prevent oozing. 135

2 Phone 800/ Fax 800/ Glossary of Taping Terms Adhesive The medium that allows the backing to be quickly, positively and efficiently positioned to do its job. Adhesion to backing The bond produced by contact between a pressure-sensitive adhesive and the tape backing when one piece of tape is applied to the back of another piece of the same tape. Backing The material that performs the tape s desired functions (insulation, protection, identification, holding). Conformability The ability of tape to fit snugly or make essentially complete contact with the surface of an irregular object without creasing or folding. Any tape can be applied to any surface, but it may not conform. Dielectric strength The voltage that a tape will withstand without allowing passage of current through it. Elastic memory A tendency of some tape backings to attempt to return to their original length after being elongated. Electrolytic corrosion factor A measure of the tape s corrosive effect on a copper conductor. This is particularly important in the selection of tapes for use as electrical insulation. Elongation The distance a tape will stretch lengthwise before breaking, expressed in a percentage. Elongation is an indication of conformability. Flagging When the end of a length of tape peels away from the surface after the tape has been applied. Gapping Openings between layers of tape within a roll. Holiday A small defect that lowers the dielectric strength at the point of the defect. Migration The movement, over a long period of time, of an ingredient from one surface to another when the two are in contact. This may occur between tape components or between a tape and the surface to which it is applied. Oozing A squeezing out of the adhesive from between the layers of tape so that the sides of the roll are very tacky. Peaking Large upheavals in the outer layers of a roll of tape, when several layers bunch and protrude outward. Creates gapping within the roll. Peel adhesion The force required to pull a strip of tape from a surface at a specified angle and speed. Usually expressed in ounces per inch width. Pressure-sensitive A term commonly used to designate a category of adhesive tapes that, in dry (solvent-free) form, are aggressively and permanently tacky at room temperature. They also firmly adhere to a variety of dissimilar surfaces upon contact without the need of more than finger or hand pressure. Despite their aggressive tackiness, however, these tapes can be handled with the fingers and removed from smooth surfaces without leaving a residue. Primer Material applied to the underside of the backing that prevents the adhesive from adhering to both sides of the backing. Tacky A lab synonym for sticky, or highly adhesive. Sometimes used to express the idea of pressure sensitivity. Telescoping A sliding of the tape layers one over the other until the roll assumes a funnel shape. Thermosetting Adhesive that sets or hardens on first exposure to heat, and remains set regardless of subsequent temperature cycles. 136

7 Scotch Fire-retardant Electric Arc Proofing Tape 77 Scotch Fire-retardant Electric Arc Proofing Tape 77 is designed to protect all types of electrical cables where exposed to potential failures of other high voltage cables or exposed to other high energy cables. Its unique formulation expands in fire to form a thick char buildup between the flame and the cable. The resulting firewall acts as a heat shield and flame barrier, thus protecting the cables and accessories. 3M Linerless Electrical Rubber Tape M Linerless Electrical Rubber Tape 2242 is a multipurpose rubber insulating tape designed for use in splicing and terminating wires and cables rated up to 194 F (90 C). 3M 2242 is a highly conformable, linerless Ethylene Propylene Rubber (EPR)-based tape. Specifications for Insulating and Splicing Tapes 3M Scotchfil Electrical Insulation Putty 3M Scotchfil Electrical Insulation Putty is an electrical grade, rubber-based, elastic-type putty in tape form. It can be wrapped, stretched or molded around irregular shapes for quick, smooth insulation build-up. Use Scotchfil putty to insulate connections up to 600 volts and to round out highvoltage connections to gear, smooth bus bar irregularities, and make a moisture seal at ground wire exits in highvoltage splices.

16 Phone 800/ Fax 800/ NUMBER 3M Electrical, Electronic and EMI Shielding Tapes An electrical grade tape should always be used in the manufacture of electrical components. The correct tape will have the necessary balance of electrical and mechanical properties along with good handling characteristics that will contribute to overall productivity by reducing waste of time and materials. The simple appearance of a roll of pressure sensitive adhesive (PSA) tape does not reveal the complex nature of the material science, technology and advanced production processes that are involved. 3M Electrical Tapes are made from a broad range of backings and adhesives to meet the requirements of different applications and environments. Extensive quality control and testing, combined with accurate process controls, ensure that customers get high quality electrical grade products.
