3M™ Temflex™ Vinyl Electrical Tape 175 is a black, high performance, general use grade, nominal 7-mil (0.178 mm) thick electrical insulating tape composed of an elastic vinyl (PVC) film backing and coated on one side with a non-corrosive, solvent-free pressure-sensitive adhesive. Manufactured in a 100% solvent-free process.
Applications
UL510: As primary insulation on applications up to 600V at max temperature of 80°C (176°F) and min temperature of -10°C (14°F) on joints and splices in wires and cables in accordance with NFPA 70, National Electrical Code
CSA C22.2 No.197: Primary insulation on applications up to 1000V at max temperature of 90°C (194°F) and min temperature of -7°C (19°F) on joints and splices in wires and cables in accordance with Canadian Electrical Code, Part 1
IEC 60454-3-1: Classification Type 6, Designation IEC 60454-3-1-6/F-PVCP/90 for thermal index of 90°C (194°F) and min temperature rating of -10°C (14°F)
Industrial, commercial and residential environments
Where it is required to have a more sustainable, vinyl electrical tape with no VOCs (volatile organic compounds) and 100% solvent-free manufacturing process with lower emissions
Where Flame Retardant and Cold Resistance rating is required – UL510
Cable jacket repair (up to 600V (UL) / 1000V (CSA) as primary insulation) and as mechanicalprotection when overwrapping rubber splicing, and mastic tapes used on LV/MV/HV joints and splices
Indoor and weather protected outdoor operations as determined by end-user where use of a professional grade vinyl electrical tape is not required
Where reducing moisture ingress is needed, best results achieved when used as an overwrap in combination with a rubber splicing or mastic tape product
For harnessing and bundling of wires and cable where minimum bulk is required
