Scotch Heavy Duty Vinyl Electrical Tape 22 is a premium grade, 10-mil thick, vinyl insulating tape. It is designed to perform continuously in ambient temperatures up to 80°C (176°F). The tape is conformable for cold weather applications down to -10°C (15°F). It has excellent resistance to abrasion, moisture, alkalies, acids, corrosion and varying weather conditions. The combination of elastic backing and aggressive adhesive provides moisture-tight electrical and mechanical protection with minimum bulk. Scotch Tape 22 is an Underwriters’ Laboratories Listed and Canadian Standards Association Certified “Insulating Tape.”
