23 FAQ

Does Scotch Tape 23 fuse to itself?

Yes. Its conformable ethylene propylene rubber backing self-fuses during application to form a continuous insulating build-up.

Should Tape 23 be protected with an outer wrap?

The complete cable-splice system should follow the applicable 3M procedure; a suitable vinyl overwrap is commonly used where added mechanical and environmental protection is required.

What information is needed for a Scotch Tape 23 quotation?

Send the required roll width, quantity, cable or splice application, voltage class, applicable installation procedure, and delivery destination so the exact requirement can be reviewed.
