About Slit Silicone Coated Fiberglass Tape

The silicone coated fiberglass tape is slit from 96 fire blanket in 3mm thickness.

Properties:
Withstand repeated exposures to molten steel, molten aluminum and molten glass up to 3000 degree F (1650 degree C).
The iron oxide red silicone rubber compound sheds molten metal splash immediately, so very little heat transfer occurs.
When exposed to flames, the silicone rubber transforms into a crust, creating a protective SiO2 refractory layer.
Excellent modulus of elasticity makes it an ideal choice for bundling hoses, tubes and cables in a variety of hostile environments.

Applications:
The typical applications include protecting hoses and cables in steel mills, aluminum smelting plants, offshore drilling rigs, foundries and glass manufacturing facilities.

Exceptional Thermal and Electrical Properties

This tape performs reliably between -70C and +260C, making it highly suitable for both high and low temperature environments. With a dielectric strength greater than 2.5 kV/mm and voltage capability up to 11 kV, it provides robust electrical insulation. The flame-retardant, self-extinguishing nature ensures enhanced safety for critical industrial applications.

Versatile Sizes, Colors, and Adhesive Options

Slit Silicone Coated Fiberglass Tape is offered in customizable widths (typically 20-50 mm), thicknesses (0.15-0.3 mm), and lengths (10 m, 20 m, or as specified). Choose between non-adhesive (plain) and pressure-sensitive adhesive varieties. Available colors include white, red, or bespoke options for tailored solutions. Its smooth, glossy finish delivers a professional look.

Applications in demanding industrial settings

Designed for insulation, cable wrapping, and industrial protection, this tape is ideal for use in foundries, electrical installations, and settings demanding thermal and electrical resistance. Its abrasion-resistant and flexible nature allows for easy conformity to complex shapes, making it widely favored by distributors, exporters, manufacturers, suppliers, and traders worldwide.

FAQ's of Slit Silicone Coated Fiberglass Tape:

Q: How is Slit Silicone Coated Fiberglass Tape typically used in industrial environments?

A: It is mainly used for insulation, cable wrapping, electrical and thermal protection, and safeguarding components from abrasion and high temperatures, making it ideal for foundry, manufacturing, and electrical installations.

Q: What adhesive options are available for this fiberglass tape?

A: You can select either non-adhesive (plain) for applications requiring temporary wrapping, or pressure-sensitive adhesive if a permanent hold is needed. Both types offer reliable performance.

Q: When should I choose customized sizes, colors, or adhesive types?

A: Customized options are best when your application demands specific widths, lengths, colors, or adhesive types to fit unique installation requirements, branding, or compatibility needs.

Q: Where is this tape commonly applied for maximum benefit?

A: The tape excels in locations with high temperature exposure, electrical currents, or where flame retardancy is needed, such as cable assemblies, industrial machinery, and electrical panels.

Q: What is the process for applying the tape with pressure-sensitive adhesive?

A: Simply clean the surface, peel the backing off the tape, and firmly press it onto the desired area. Apply steady pressure to ensure optimal adhesion and insulation performance.

Q: What are the main benefits of using halogen free and flame-retardant tape?

A: Halogen free construction prevents toxic emissions during burning, while flame retardant and self-extinguishing features enhance safety and compliance in hazardous environments.

Q: How long can this tape be stored without loss of properties?

A: It retains its functional characteristics for up to 24 months if kept in cool, dry conditions, ensuring reliable stock management and readiness for use in critical projects.
