    Insulate hard-to-reach connections. Brush, dab, or spray liquid tape to create a skintight layer that covers and hardens over uneven surfaces and fills small gaps. It can also be used to seal plastic tape.
    Liquid Vinyl Plastic—Great for quick insulation repairs. Thinner than liquid rubber when applied, a single coat dries in five minutes or less. Add additional coats as needed to build up insulation.
    Liquid Rubber—Dries into an elastic coating that creates a thick, flexible seal. When removed, it comes off cleanly and won’t leave residue behind.
    Cannot Be Sold Outside United States—Liquid that cannot be sold outside the United States is restricted by product labeling requirements.

    High-Strength Fiberglass Electrical Tape

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Electrical Tape. High-Strength Fiberglass Electrical Tape.
    Made with fiberglass for durability and abrasion resistance, this electrical insulating tape also withstands high temperatures. The cloth can absorb electrical insulating varnishes.
    Acrylic Adhesive—Long lasting and solvent resistant. The adhesive won’t degrade when exposed to chemicals, oil, or prolonged UV light. Unlike rubber adhesive, it leaves behind little residue when removed.
    ASTM E595—Tape that meets ASTM E595, a standard set by NASA, will produce almost no volatile emissions that could damage electronics, even in a high vacuum.

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Contains Inset. Electrical Tape. High-Temperature Self-Fusing Silicone Electrical Tape, Tapered Profile.

    Tapered Profile

    Create long-lasting seals around electrical connections, even in hot, cold, or wet conditions. Made of silicone, this tape stands up to chemicals, temperature changes, and UV rays, making it a good choice for insulating wiring and components in outdoor and other harsh environments. It is self-fusing, so it sticks to itself as you layer it for a secure seal that keeps moisture out. Also known as cold-shrink tape.
    Tapered Profile—Thickest in the middle and thinner at the edges. This shape ensures that when you apply partially overlapping layers, the thickness remains uniform for a smooth, even surface and consistent dielectric strength. The center guide eliminates guesswork to help you precisely align each wrap.
    ASTM D495—Rated to protect against electrical arcs, which cause surface damage that can lead to short circuits or fires.

    Low-Outgassing Aluminum Foil Conductive Tape

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Conductive Tape. Low-Outgassing Aluminum Foil Conductive Tape.
    Tested to meet ASTM E595, a standard used by NASA, this tape gives off almost no volatile emissions that could damage sensitive electronics, even in a vacuum. It’s more conformable than copper tape, so you can cover textured housings and round cables without leaving gaps for electromagnetic interference (EMI) to get in. When EMI makes contact, the conductive backing and adhesive convert it into heat and actively reflect it away. The conductivity of this tape also makes it great for electrical connections. Use it on surfaces that can’t be soldered.

    Low-Outgassing Copper Foil Conductive Tape

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Conductive Tape. Low-Outgassing Copper Foil Conductive Tape.
    Tested to meet ASTM E595, a standard used by NASA, this tape releases almost no volatile emissions that could damage sensitive electronics, even in a vacuum. Use it to repair and prototype circuit boards and shield components from EMI/RFI. With a copper backing and conductive adhesive, it’s useful for making electrical connections—current travels both along and through the tape. Unlike aluminum tape, it can be soldered. It’s also better at resisting chemicals.

    Use this tape to attach components to heat sinks and metal chassis walls in place of screws and other mechanical fasteners. It conducts heat away from sensitive electronics.
    Aluminum Foil—Aluminum foil tape conducts electricity. It also meets ASTM E595, a standard used by NASA, which means it produces almost no volatile emissions that could damage sensitive electronics, even in a high vacuum.
