Polyethylene Tape offers a certain degree of water resistance, but it is not entirely waterproof. Polyethylene is a thermoplastic polymer known for its resistance to moisture and water absorption. Therefore, Polyethylene Tape can provide a barrier against water and offer some protection in applications where exposure to moisture is a concern.
105⁰ C, 8 mils @ 800 V/mil. - In conclusion, high-speed splicing tape is more than just a simple joining tool; it's a game-changer in industrial processes. Its ability to enhance speed, accuracy, and safety while minimizing downtime makes it a valuable asset for businesses striving for increased productivity and cost-effectiveness. As technology continues to evolve, we can expect even more advanced versions of this tape, further revolutionizing the way we approach manufacturing and production processes.
- Emergency exit floor markings play an indispensable role in ensuring safety and order in public and private spaces. These markings serve as visual cues that guide people towards the nearest escape route during emergencies, such as fires, earthquakes, or terrorist attacks. They embody the principle of 'safety first' and are mandated by building codes and safety regulations globally.

Resistant to chemicals and solvents

Also referred to as self-fusing tape, self-amalgamating tape is a non-sticky tape that will only adhere to itself. To amalgamate means “to mix or merge so as to make a combination; blend; unite; combine.” So, when one layer of tape is stretched and placed over another layer of self-amalgamating tape, the two layers ‘blend’ or ‘combine’ to become a solid piece.
Conclusion: The Central Hub of Your Electrical System
Here at Swift, we stock a number of different electrical tapes. Some are adhesive, some are not and somewhere in the middle are our self-fusing tapes. These don't stick to surfaces but they do stick to themselves.
In plumbing and automotive contexts, self-fusing tape serves as an effective tool for sealing leaks in hoses and pipes. Its ability to conform to different shapes ensures a tight seal, thereby preventing leaks from escalating into more significant issues.
