Our self-amalgamating halogen-free tape maintains a tight insulation buildup for void-free electrical stability and permanent resistance to moisture penetration.
Quite simply and as the name suggests, self-amalgamating tape is a tape that is adhesive to itself but not directly adhesive to other substrates, it is a non-tacky silicone-rubber tape which when stretched and wrapped around cables, electrical joints, hoses and pipes combines or unites itself into a strong, seamless, rubbery, waterproof, and electrically insulating layer. This ensures a strong bond, but with easy removal & minimal material left behind.
This has made self amalgamating tape the ultimate repair tape, offering a strong water tight seal which can be replied extremely efficiently. But then easily removed for a permanent repair. This type of tape is also described, as "self-fusing", or "self-vulcanizing". It is also known as "F4", "rescue", "Tape 69" "magic tape", and "fix-it tape" This is used extensively in aviation and aerospace wiring applications as a splice or wrapping tape due to its non-flammability. It can be used for emergency repair of leaking low-pressure hoses and pipes.
