VULCANOVA TAPE (VLT)
SELF-VULCANIZING TAPE, INDISPENSABLE IN EACH WORKSHOP
Features
A conformable, self-amalgamating tape based on polyisobutylene, colour black. Vulcanova Tape can also be used for protection against corrosion on metal pipework. Insulation against electrical loss show a high degree of stability under conditions of use. The tape is also highly resistant to prolonged immersion in water and has excellent resistance to ozone.
Why use VULCANOVA TAPE?
- insulation and protection of electrical connections and cables
- repairing and protecting of cable bundling
- corrosion protection of metal pipes
- temporary repairs of water hoses
- insulation of electrical connectors
- to improve all water resistance on electrical applications
- for joining (splicing) and repair of a wide range of power and distribution cables up to 46 KV
