PVC tape with adhesive

PVC adhesive sticks better on a difficult surface and is resistant to cold. It is resistant to moisture and heat. It is used for long-term storage cartons, it is also :

• Self-extinguishing.
• Waterproof.
• Very flexible and elastic.
• Get out of here without trace.

The pvc adhesive rollers are supplied with an individual packaging so as not to be degraded if you do not use all colors.

The pvc tapes is used for electrical insulation, ground marking and trace of pipes or pipes tubing. Each ribbon offers user properties that are unique to it and that best meet your needs

• Red adhesive tape or brown : used for phase cables.
• Blue adhesive tape : used for neutral cables.
• Green/yellow adhesive tape : used for earth cables.
• Black or grey adhesive tape : used for pilot wires.
• Purple adhesive tape : used for shuttles to and from, luminaire return ...
• Green adhesive tape, white yellow : used for any other application.

One example of use is to combine several threads. But that remains provisional. Later, it will be more definitive to Restricting heat shrinkable tubing on this beam of cables.

Whatever the construction site, the intervention, a good technician must always have PVC tape in his toolbox. Indeed, there are always elements to gather together, or even it can serve as a tracer given the multitude of colors available. If you pass several identical cables in a tubing, you must first spot the 2 ends of the cable : an economical and quick solution to identify the ends is to surround them with a piece of pvc tape. Use a light pressure for 5 to 10 seconds on the last centimeters of the tape at the end of the installation. Thus the adhesive mass penetrates more into the substrate fibres.

No need to cut tool, just stretch and tape shortens while keeping its adhesive property.

Another quality of the PVC tape is that you further improve color identification by writing on the ribbon all characteristics you consider useful with indelible ink.

An electrician in charge of maintenance in an agri-food plant was to intervene on a cabinet containing several dozen identical cables in appearance, grouped in narrow cable paths. In order to avoid errors in tracking and reconnecting, he used pvc tapes different colours to visually identify the functions of each driver (phase, neutral, earth, backlight, etc.). Thanks to its good dampness and its ability to stick even on slightly dusty surfaces, the ribbon remained in place until the complete renovation of the cabinet several weeks later. This temporary marking, legible and without blush, saved valuable maintenance time without risking dangerous inversion.

A particular handyman found that the cable of his electric car wall charger, exposed to repeated friction during daily handling, had traces of surface wear. While waiting for a definitive replacement, he wrapped several towers of black PVC tape on the damaged area, then visually reinforced both ends of the cable with yellow and blue ribbon to avoid confusion during connection. Thanks to the flexibility of the tape, the protection perfectly conformed to the cable, without rigidizing its end. Result : a simple, clean and efficient repair, for immediate and secure return to service.

In the same way as cable tie inserting elements, as a heat shrinkable tubing restores the tubing on a beam of cables, or tubing expansible helps to order all cables gravitating in an office environment, PVC tape is an alternative solution. It is an additional choice offered to our customers.

The adhesive tape can be of more or less good quality depending on the provenance, the manufacturing recipe applied. Our customers are demanding on the quality of the PVC tape. This is why ACLP favours quality over margin, as the pvc tapes is often a supplement to the basket consisting essentially of Walled thermoretractable sheaths thin, Medium, or thick. A good alternative to PVC tape is the self-melting tape.
