Heat Cable Tape for Pipe & Roof Applications
Product Overview
Heat cable installation tape is used to securely fasten self-regulating cable to pipes and roofing surfaces during freeze protection installs.
- 3M™ Scotch 27 Glass Cloth Electrical Tape is a white, woven glass cloth electrical tape designed for applications requiring high mechanical strength and elevated temperature resistance.
- The Class B thermal rating makes it suitable for industrial heating systems and electrical insulation where temperatures are moderate but still demanding.
- Woven glass cloth backing provides excellent tensile strength, tear resistance, and abrasion resistance.
- Coated with a thermosetting rubber pressure-sensitive adhesive that does not require heat or moisture to activate.
- Adhesive is specially designed and prepared to provide corrosion protection
- Recommended for steel pipes, which naturally conduct heat effectively
- Used for Pipe trace installation
